Ours is a world of desperation
A world of tears
A world of fears
With so much to fear
The future grows dim
It's about time we're all aware that
It's a small dangerous world after all
A small world threatened by MANiacs
A small world bordering on destruction
A small, small fragile world
A small precious world after all.
There is just one moon
But many evil men
Just one golden sun
But so many stupid men
A smile means friendship
Our enemies do not smile
They wish to do us evil
Though the mountains divide
The oceans are wide
Nuclear weapons are only minutes away
It's a mad world after all
It's a small, mad world
A sad, sad world after all.
“This is all wrong.”
Poor
little Greta Thunberg looked so desperate when at the age of 16 she addressed
the United Nations. She believed the threat to her generation is global
warming, when it’s not. Global stupidity of men and their wars are. What threatens are the
warmongers such as Putin & Co. and monstrous defense budgets that waste
billions of dollars that could be used to help people rather than destroy them.
Really, is global warming a more serious threat than the approximately 3,750
active nuclear warheads and 13,890 total nuclear warheads in the world? Greta, you worry about a climatic shift, and rightly so, but it would take some time. A nuclear war could be started tomorrow by political troglodytes such as the primordial brutes such as Putin, Kim Jong Un, and Xi Jinping.
“Entire ecosystems are collapsing.
We are in the beginning of a mass extinction, and all you can talk about is
money and fairy tales of eternal economic growth. How dare you!”
Measures
must be taken to reduce carbon emissions. That is true, but measures are being taken to reduce CO emissions. However, there is a much
greater threat to humanity. An immediate threat that could be triggered by evil men at any —Global War. Global
warming can be managed. It is being managed. But wars cannot be managed, only
won or lost with death and destruction to both sides. And wars are started by MANiacs such as Putin who cannot be managed
because they are MANiacs.
The threat of overpopulation. Today the global population is 8
billion, quadrupled that of 1900, 8 times that of 1800. To produce fewer CO2
emissions requires producing fewer children. And more people mean not only more
carbon emissions but more poverty, more disease, more crime, and more death. You say, “I’m one of the lucky ones.” Yes you are, Greta. You live in a
technological advanced country of 10 million people. Would 30 more million
people improve Sweden’s quality of life? Would 30 more million people improve Sweden’s
environment? I doubt it.
The threat of global stupidity. I see something
more in your desperation, which is not Global Warming but Global Stupidity. By
stupidity, I mean moral stupidity, the stupidity of the thug, the bully, the goon, the assailant, the attacker, the
aggressor, the despot, all the thuggish warmongers, all the men who rule
nations with great armies and nuclear weapons and oppressed populations.
Compared to them global warming is a minor threat. You are correct to feel
desperate and threaten because you and your generation exist on the cusp of a
global war that would be massively destructive and would poison the environment
beyond repair for human life. That’s what I think when I listen to your
desperate words.
“We are watching you.”
Greta,
humanity has been watching the political world-wrecking thugs for over a century.
And their destruction has always been war. You worry about people suffering and
dying because of global warming, but 70–85 million people perished, or about 3%
of the 1940 world population, died as a result of World War II, and it lasted
only 6 years. And that war was unnecessary. It could have been avoided if
stupid, immoral men had not chosen war over peace. Global warming has the
excuse of being the result of the shift in production that occurred with the
Industrial Revolution and the rapid growth industrial economies. It was not the
result of cruel, stupid politicians. It wasn’t until 1988 that global warming
was recognized as a threat. Yet, even after two world wars and the invention of
nuclear weapons, Putin has proved that war remains a popular pastime for
powerful stupid political and religious leaders.
“This is all wrong.”
Of
course it is, child, clearly wrong, the warmongering and monstrous defense
budgets that waste billions of dollars that could be used to help people rather
than destroy them. Having approximately 3,750 active nuclear warheads and
13,890 total nuclear warheads in the world is wrong for people who know right
from wrong—but many men such as that political troglodyte and primordial brute Putin do not know the
difference between right and wrong. Psychopaths never do.
“You have stolen my dreams and my
childhood.”
The men who have stolen your dreams and childhood think with minds destroyed by sinister ideologies and massive egos. They control nightmarish mindless armies eager to destroy and kill, and their nuclear weapons wait to be unleashed to commit infinite horror upon every form of life. They are political monsters,
doers of infinite evil. I am sorry, Greta. It should not be this way, but evil
is too powerful and good too weak. That is why humanity invented God, but the
God they invented was masculine so took the side of evil.
“We are in the beginning of a mass
extinction.”
Evil
men have been extinguishing cultures and nations for thousands of years. You
worry about global warming, but just consider how many thousands of cultures
have gone extinct by violence during human history. The Audubon Society tells us that "Since settlers arrived in the United States, tribal nations have lost nearly 99 percent of their lands through treaty cessions, forced migration, theft, and devastating government policies designed to erode Native sovereignty and culture." And with the land went many tribal cultures. It was Moses who came up
with the diabolical notion that the only people who deserve to exist are those who worship the Jewish God. He
invented an ideology that had God declare that Moses’ people were the only people
that deserved to exist in the world. If possible all the others should be
destroyed. And as Nietzsche explained in The
Antichrist the fuel that drove them was ressentiment
and a hatred of all who think differently and the will conquer and persecute.
The hatred and resentment were strongest among those who envied the greatness
of great pagan cultures.
Were the cultures of the Native Americans great? They were not great in technology. Their greatness was their way of life and the wisdom that defined their way of life. They possessed wisdom that great technological societies have too often lacked because technological power fuels the will to power over others. Native American wisdom taught how to live in harmony with the natural world and how to live in beauty. Their wisdom was rooted in the Lebenswelt, the life-world, not in an invented artificial religious or secular ideology filled with hatred. At times their actions fell short of living wisely, but the wisdom remained in the culture to be rediscovered.
Hope for future peace diminished to zero with
the arrival of the four Jewish ideologies—Judaism, JudeoChristianity,
JudeoIslam, and JudeoMarxism. (I should add neoconservatism that caused the cruel and unnecessary Iraq War.) In comparison, the threat of global warming is not as
horrific as you imagine it to be. Unlike the ideologies of hatred it is not
driven by hatred. Climate can change to become harmful to life, but it has no
desire to end life, no more than asteroids seek to extinguish life. Religious
and secular ideologies of hatred are the creations of men and are as destructive as
asteroids in part because they destroy the ability to use moral reason.
“You are failing us.”
We
have been failing you for centuries. Your country selfishly failed the children
of Europe by maintaining a policy of neutrality during World War II against one
of the greatest evildoer in human history. Imagine all those children being
sent to concentration camps. Wouldn’t they have said to Swedish people, “You
are failing us”? The same selfishness is what drives countries to worry more
about themselves than about the threat of global warming to other nations and nature's life-world.
“But the young people are starting
to understand your betrayal.”
I’m
not so sure. Wanting industrial growth that causes global warming is not a
betrayal. All young people want jobs and all the wonderful things that
industrialization produces. You live in one of the most technologically advanced nations in the world;
most of the children of the world don’t. Global warming is not a betrayal, but
this is: “Total global military expenditure rose to $1981 billion last year, an
increase of 2.6 per cent in real terms from 2019, according to new data
published today by the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute.” Just
imagine if that all those billions of dollars were spent on reducing CO2
emission. Even better, imagine a world without 27,671,000 soldiers (according
to The World Bank) waiting to go to war.
That includes 5,166 warships for only
the top 14 nations (“Largest Navies in the World 2022,” World Population Review). Another 146 nations also have warships.
Add to that about 20,000 military aircraft. And to that some 73,000 tanks
according to Forbes. You get the
picture, Greta. In comparison to war, global warming is not so big of a threat.
Most of all let’s not overlook the roughly 13,150 nuclear warheads as of
mid-2021. I almost for forgot the 354 submarines, about 44 of which carry
nuclear missiles. And Putin is proving to the entire world that a nuclear holocaust
is quite possible because of deranged men like him. He has already murdered
thousands of men, women, and children. Have you seen Putin's playground for children?
Yes, men who start wars are murderers. And he doesn't care about dead Ukrainian men, women, and
children. I doubt he cares about the Russian soldiers he uses as cannon
fodder. And Netanyahu doesn't care about Palestinian men, women, and children. He turns their hospitals in morgues.
“The eyes of all future generations
are upon you.”
Two
points. Future generations are not watching us because they don’t exist. The
second and most important point is that evil men don’t give a damn about future
generations. The men and women Putin has murdered will not produce future children. And he stole the future of the children he has murdered. Such men care only about their personal ambitions. They don’t care
about how they will be seen by future generations as long as they get their
way. Criminals don’t care about their reputations, or if they do like Eric
Harris and Dylan Klebold they want to be remembered for their evil deeds not
for good deeds that they were incapable of performing.
Most heinous of all, they
don’t care about women and children. Like Agamemnon who sacrificed his daughter
Iphigenia to go to war (Euripides’ Iphigenia
at Aulis, 406 BC), they will sacrifice women and children to war—as Brute
Putin and Hamas and Israel are presently doing. What you say is what Euripides was trying to tell men 2,500
years ago. They didn’t listen. Few do. Their love of aggression and carnage makes them
deaf to morality. It doesn’t exist for them. Such men are stupid to morality
and compassion. They have no conscience and are incapable of feeling guilt. So,
forget about their sympathetic side. The absence of sympathy is what allows
them to be evil. That is why they are immune to appeals to human decency. If
men don’t care about slaughtering men, women, and children, why would you think
they would care about global warming? Besides, the machines of war are great
consumers of fossil fuels. The gas mileage of tanks is very poor, about 0.6 miles per gallon.
“And if you choose to fail us, I
say: We will never forgive you.”
One
thing you learn from playing video games is the bad guys don’t give a damn
about being forgiven. You are appealing to men who think and behave like the
Biblical Joshua who took Makkedah. "He put the city and its king to the sword and totally destroyed everyone in it. He left no survivors." Or Judas who sold out Jesus for 30 pieces of silver. Will to power, greed and
warmongering couldn’t care less about forgiveness. You believe the threat of
Hell was invented to frighten evil men, but it was a Judas trick to frighten
good men and women. The threat of Hell is a tool of manipulation and
exploitation. Its motivation is not morality or concern for the welfare of good
people. It is a tool of terror to manipulate believers and nonbelievers to
remain loyal to the Christian ideology—not to frighten evil men into being good
men. That can't be done. Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold didn't fear death or Hell. The threat of Hell was a betrayal of the truth by men, always men, used to realize their
will to power. That you have been mocked by the powerbrokers should tell you
that much. And in the U.S. the Green New Deal is also political tool used by the
oppressor. It’s a disguise that evil uses to appear good, a wolf in sheep's clothing . You may recall that
in the story of “Little Red Riding Hood” that after the wolf swallows the
grandmother whole he puts on the grandmother’s clothes to fool the girl. She is
fooled and eaten.
“We will not let you get away with
this.”
You
have no choice. You remind me of a mouse telling a giant voracious cat, “You
won’t get away with eating me.” Then the cat eats the mouse. Maybe the cat will
get sick and die, but the mouse will still be dead. Your threat is empty.
“Right here, right now is where we
draw the line.”
You remember Hitler, don’t you?
Civilized nations drew the line, all except Switzerland and Sweden, and he
crossed the line September 1, 1939. Again, your threat is empty. If the line is
crossed, what will your response be? To draw another line? I don’t wish to mock
you because the issue is serious, though my concern is war and yours is global
warming. The problem is that you believe there is a simple solution when
there’s not. There isn't a simple solution to my concern war or to yours global warming. As mentioned above, the world’s population continues to increase
and everyone wants the same level of affluence that you have. (If you live to
the age of 60, you will see the global population increase to 10 billion
people!) Yet, according to the World Bank, “Close to 46 percent of the world’s
population is already living on less than $5.50 a day.” Those people don’t produce a
lot of CO2 gases but they do live poor lives.
And what reduces poverty and
increases quality of life is technology, but 87 percent of all human-produced
carbon dioxide emissions come from the burning of fossil fuels like coal,
natural gas and oil which technology depends on. Sorry, but wind, water, and
sunlight cannot meet the demands of modern technology. It’s a complex system
driven by greed, aggression, will to power, increasing population growth, societies
driven by aggressive masculine ideologies, and masculine politics driven by the
male id. Thus, telling complexity not to cross a certain line won’t work
because it doesn’t hear you. So what is the answer? I don’t know. I believe that is why one never
sees a photo of Freud smiling. He saw that the problem was insolvable. How
could it be otherwise when he believed that civilization, ergo civil behavior,
is based on repressing the instincts of the id but doing so increasing aggressive behavior? And the id (of the male beast) can be repressed but not
extinguished. How could a man smile who lived through two world wars that
killed over a hundred million unique individuals? I believe that the self-destructive tendencies of men must first be addressed so humanity can work together in peace to solve such threats as global warming. Knowing the beast that lurks in men, I’m not sure that is possible. Until then the world will remain a sad, sad place after all.
I haven’t forgotten the role of good men
and women who have fought evil men just as I haven’t forgotten the good
Ukrainian men who have been fighting and dying fighting evil Russian men. You
simply can’t rant and rave (as I often do). You must appeal to good men, but the
threat of never ending wars must also be addressed. Accomplishing climate
change mitigation will not end the threat of global war or nuclear war, which
could be triggered tomorrow or next week by a mad man. Besides, work is being done to reduce
the threat of climatic change. But the only thing that is being done to reduce
the threat of war is building bigger and more sophisticated militaries. It’s
the old Mutual Assured Destruction doctrine which is truly mad because bigger
and more sophisticated militaries encourage mad men like Putin to start wars.
“The world is waking up. And change
is coming, whether you like it or not.”
The
world is waking up to an actual nightmare—another eruption of masculinity, but
the noise that they are awakening to isn’t Global Warming but Vladimir Putin’s
(AKA Czar Putin, Adolf Putin, Vladimir Makarov Putin, Vladimir the Terrible,
and Genghis Putin) military machine destroying Ukraine and possibly triggering global war. (And now the Israeli-Hamas War!) Within men dwells the demon of doom. It is vicious, aggressive, and
cruel. It loves one thing only—power over others. It is will to power. Morality
has no effect upon the men in whom the demon has taken control and squeezed out
any love for life. Putin is such a man. You see it in his face. The demon face!
Such men are evil because their will to power is a threat to humanity and civilization.
They are an affliction that has been with us always. They are the men who throw
babies into the air and catch them on bayonets. Global warming is a threat,
yes, but it is not a demonic will to power. It does not seek to destroy us. In
fact, it is the result of life living beyond its means, wanting more in life,
wanting more from the cornucopia of technology.
“My message is that we'll be
watching you.”
Isn't that what Sweden said while it watched Hitler’s war machine ravage Europe?
Fortunately, there were good men in the world who didn’t just watch but who
died defending women and children from the armies of evil just as Ukrainian men
die defending Ukrainian women and children from Putin’s evil armies.
This is all wrong. I shouldn't be up
here. I should be back in school on the other side of the ocean. Yet, you all
come to us young people for hope. How dare you!
You
shouldn’t be up there crying about global warming when there are far worst evils the world murdering young people today, which Czar Putin and other monsters of death and destruction in the Middle East are proving. Their tanks don’t care
what young people think. They kill young people intentionally. Global Warming
may do that but never intentionally. And it is up to young people to change the
world. They must find a way to give the world hope so their elders don’t give
up on hope. It is up to young people—like you—to inspire their elders to do the right
thing for everyone and for every creature, not just humans. Condemnation alone, however, creates only enemies. In your anger Jackie DeShannon would remind you to put a
little love in your heart.
Another day goes by, and still the children cry
Put a little love in your heart
If you want the world to know, we won't let hatred grow
Put a little love in your heart.
That was
1969 when young people wanted peace, more love and less war. The struggle
continues.
You have stolen my dreams and my
childhood with your empty words and yet I’m one of the lucky ones... How dare
you!
You’re
angry and I understand. I too am angry. However, your words are simplistic—that
of a child. Evil men have been stealing dreams forever. Yes, you are one of the
lucky ones, but maybe not for long. “Several Russian amphibious warfare ships
briefly moved into Baltic Sea waters, some of them coming uncomfortably close
to Sweden. That, and a series of recent drone flights of unknown origin over
the country’s nuclear power plants, has put Sweden on edge, reawakening
longstanding fears of a possible Russian incursion” (France 24). Will Sweden look on if Russia invades Norway? Or
Finland, that other member of the humanitarian superpower triune that sided
with the Germans? You see why your words ring hollow, don’t you? It is always
about your people, isn’t it? Though it seems Good Samaritan Sweden is now doing the right and brave thing by continuing to support Ukraine when others won't. I see a reassuring change in your peace-loving homeland. But the masculine lovers of war are many.
It's a Sad, Sad World where War is Entertainment
And I fear that war has become
entertainment for war-loving voyeurs. Of course, war has always been a source
of entertainment all the way back to Homer’s Iliad and before. But the entertainment of war has undergone a
revolution led by YouTube. No longer is war presented in words and movies. The
revolution in communication technologies has made possible to view actual killing
and destruction. Snuff videos are back and as popular as ever. Even more,
lovers of the machinery of war can talk to their hearts continent, and there
are many contented hearts, about the newest fighter planes and tanks and drones
and artillery and small arms and special military units and then watch them all
in action. Of course, showing torn, crush, mutilated, dead bodies of babies,
women, and other civilians is forbidden. Doing so would lessen the
entertainment value or would it? Also forbidden are criticisms no matter how
true that are considered hurtful to viewers supporting one side or the other.
Yes, it seems war is being treated as another sport—each side rooting for the
hometown team no matter how evil. Of course, more war doesn’t end war only no
war does that. But now that war has become an entertainment commodity, I doubt
that will happen. Money speaks loudest of all. So what is the answer, Greta, in
a mad world where masculine madness holds sway? Where many ghoulish mad men in control
armies prefer war to peace as long as others do the fighting?
“For more than 30 years, the science
has been crystal clear. How dare you continue to look away and come here saying
that you're doing enough when the politics and solutions needed are still
nowhere in sight.”
Vitriol
will not help your cause. Using rhetoric that wins friends, supporters, and
allies is a more effective strategy. There have been plenty of nations working
on political and technological ways to lessen global warming. Solution? Not if
the world’s population continues to increase, and both liberals and religious
conservative believe the Earth can accommodate billions more, when in fact it’s
not accommodating present population now. The environmental threat to billions
of people today is not global warming but a lack of resources such as arable
land and water. Poor countries can't afford oil that cost $72.72 per barrel.
And the political threat comes down to three nations: Russia,
China, and North Korea. If it were not for those 3 nations global defense
spending would not have been $2,240 billion last year, an increase of 13 percent in Europe because of diabolical Putin's war. That money could be spent on dealing with the
causes of global warming. What about the Muslim threat? I think if you stay out
of their homelands and keep them out of yours, they are not a threat. They may
continue to kill one another (or not), but that will not trigger a global war or a nuclear war, especially if Israel and Iran could manage to tolerate one another and if Israel could grow a conscience and give back to Palestinians a piece of their homeland that was taken from them. (Isn't it weird that the Iranian-Israel clash is between two religious ideologies rooted in the idol-smashing philosophy of Abraham who would have sacrificed his son to God? Not really.) Because of masculine aggression there is a chance that W.W.III will happen before a serious global warming
crisis occurs. Putin could trigger it at any moment. China and North Korea are be happy to serve as his allies. And who are running the show in all three countries? Diabolical men.
“You say you hear us and that you
understand the urgency, but no matter how sad and angry I am, I do not want to
believe that. Because if you really understood the situation and still kept on
failing to act then you would be evil and that I refuse to believe.”
Clever
rhetoric, but rhetoric is not a persuasive argument. And in this case it isn’t
even persuasive rhetoric. You seem to believe that ending global warming is as
simple as flipping a switch. It’s not because billions of people, not just
political leaders, want the very things the production of which causes carbon
emissions. You have those things already, but are willing to deny others those
things. Let’s shift the focus back to War: “Several studies have found a strong
positive correlation between military spending and increased greenhouse gas
emissions, with the impact of military spending on carbon emissions being more
pronounced for countries of the Global North (i.e., OECD developed countries).
“Accordingly,
the US military is estimated to be the number one fossil fuel consumer in the
world” (“Environmental impact of war,” Wikipedia).
So war is a multiple problem: (1) It kills people and destroys homes, schools, hospitals, businesses, and cities. (2) It
wastes essential resources. (3) It is a huge polluter. (4) And what it destroys
has to be rebuilt using diminishing resources and causing CO2 emissions, both of which could have been avoided had there been no war. After Adolf Putin’s slaughter of
Ukrainians and the destruction of their cities, perhaps you could do a study of
environmental impact of Vladimir the Terrible’s private war.
“The popular idea of cutting our
emissions in half in 10 years only gives us a 50 percent chance of staying
below 1.5 degrees and the risk of setting off irreversible chain reactions
beyond human control.”
Tell
that to the Ukrainians or to the Palestinians who no longer have a place to live because their homes are now rubble! And have you ever considered a chain reaction that
leads to global war? Study the causes of WWI.
“Fifty percent may be acceptable to
you, but those numbers do not include tipping points, most feedback loops,
additional warming hidden by toxic air pollution or the aspects of equity and
climate justice.”
This
is called gobbledygook, like Judeo-Christians and Judeo-Muslims threatening members
of other religions with the fires of Hell when the only evidence for Hell is
found in scripture, which doesn't qualify as evidence. Yes, you belong in the
classroom or you might want to visit Ukraine or Palestine to conduct a poll to get their
opinions about global warming.
Video Games and the Truth about
Human Evil in the World
The
truth is revealed in video games. In Mass
Effect the Reapers = a pure form of mechanized masculinity. Unbridled
masculinity fueled by the will to power has always been the greatest threat
facing humanity. Like the Reapers such men (today it is Pestiferous Putin and
his army of husks (a once human organisms transformed into a deadly
monstrosities) care nothing about family, children, or women. They are killers,
destroyers, and controllers. In Kill Zone
it’s the Helghast Empire (think Russia) has launched a blitzkrieg. In Half-Life 2 (the greatest game of all
time, by the way) the evil empire is the Combine (think Russia, China, and
North Korea) under the control of G-Man (a government man as usual), think
Vladimir Putin, Xi Jinping, and
Kim Jong-un. Evil is written
on each man’s face! Gordon Freeman is the hero. His name reveals what he is all
about and what the evildoers are against. And we don’t want to overlook Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 which
stars mass murderer Vladimir Makarov the very embodiment of Putin, slaughtering
people at an airport. Putin’s airport is the Ukraine that consists of
businesses, schools, hospitals, and residences. Of course, hiding in his
billion-plus dollar palace, his life is not in danger. Like LBJ and G.W. Bush,
he’s a coward.
Slave States China, Russia, and
North Korea
CHINA
China
is a slave state. Its people are loyal automatons programmed from cradle to
grave. They are devoted and well-behaved as one would expect from automatons.
The Chinese government has transformed entire cities into factories. The entire
nation is an industrial complex. They are also smart, family devoted,
dependable, drawn to difficult scientific disciplines, and non-complainers and
non-whiners unlike those complainers and whiners lucky enough to live in humane nations such as the U.S. and France. The precision and quality of the productivity of the Chinese people are to be admired.
Americans, on the other hand, are deficient in all those areas. However, the
Chinese are not the big, creative thinkers as they once were. They do not excel in intellectual,
philosophical, scientific, or artistic innovation. And though they have a
genius for technology and its applications, they are plagiarizers. And unlike American
culture, theirs is boring. Unfortunately Judeo-Marxism crushed the two
Chinese cultural forms most admired by Westerners: Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism.
Still,
their government is evil, and the people will robotically serve its evil ends. The Chinese’s
Winter Olympics reminded me of Hitler’s 1936 Olympics. The most significant
aspect of both was the willingness of other nations, in particular Western
nations, to kowtow to the Chinese evil empire. Ditto that for the Russian
Olympics. Three truisms that cannot be ignored about China are the following: (1) It is an enemy of Western civilization even though its strength has been built
on Western science and technology and Judeo-Marxism. (2) One day in the future
it will invade Taiwan. (3) It will continue to intimidate and/or dominate
nations in the Pacific Rim region. This intimidation caused humanitarian
superpower Australia to spend $70 to $170 billion for 8 nuclear submarines.
Such a waste of money and not a threat feared by China. Australia has a
population of 25 million. China can lose that many people fighting the
Australians and still have a billion plus left over. Australia would have been
better off with 2 nuclear powered submarines with nuclear missiles. Being able
to destroy cities is the only thing the evil empires China, Russia, and North
Korea fear.
RUSSIA
Russia
is also a slave state. Its people are suppressed and programmed like the
automatons of China. Russia depends totally on its natural resources. All it
mental and financial energy is devoted to Putin’s military. Russia is
essentially a military base. It creates nothing intellectually, culturally, and
technologically that is of any interest to the rest of the world. It is at one
with Putin and Putin is as uninteresting as a human being can be. Russia’s glory days occurred in the 19th century. Judeo-Marxism destroyed the
Russian soul and it hasn’t recovered. I’ve read that like G.W. Bush, Putin
keeps a Bible bedside, most likely reading, if he reads at all, the part of the
Old Testament devoted to the conquest of Canaan. He would have no use for
Jesus.
Putin
wants Ukrainians murdered so that Russians can move into their homes, as the
Jews did when they invaded Palestine. The Jewish Bible taught the world ethnic
cleansing so that thuggish dictators are able to destroy other cultures and peoples
with a clear conscience. Ditto
that for Judeo-Marxism. If you’re not a Marxist, then you are an enemy. However,
dictatorial thugs like Putin and the Maoists politicians of China or the
pathological oppressor Kim Jong-un don’t have a conscience, so keeping it clear
isn’t a problem.
They are all Satanic. Satan did evil because he enjoyed doing
it. Satan is the personification of evil, and the fundamental characteristic of
evil is the absence of morality. Evil is the opposite of morality.
Unfortunately, Satan wasn’t an ex–nihilo creation. His prototype was men who
enjoyed doing harm. Like his creator, Yahweh, he is the projection of masculinity. Fortunately for
humanity, not all men are Satanic. But enough are to prevent the world from
ever eradicating evil men whose threats of disorder keep the world in a constant state of fear and
trembling.
It's a sad, sad world after all. That
was Freud’s conclusion, which seems to be the case given the present state of
the world. Freud illustrates how difficult it is even for a very smart man
to be morally wise. He supported World War I: “Freud's initial response to
World War I was patriotic, and he closely followed the unfolding events of the
war. Two of his sons volunteered for duty in the Austrian army” (“Sigmund
Freud: Conflict & Culture,” The
Library of Congress). And, “His first response to the declaration of the
First World War in 1914 was an unexpected one. He was enthusiastic, as if he
was reliving the military ardours of his boyhood, when he would play war games
with toy soldiers and plan his own military campaigns” (“Sigmund Freud, war and
disillusionment,” Young Poets Network). That 's really sad! The question that looms large is how can anyone be enthusiastic about war,
either as an aggressor or defender of one's homeland?
But
it was Jewish ideology that taught humanity how to program a population to be
automaton citizens. When Korah complains to Moses, “You have gone too far! The whole
community is holy, every one of them, and the Lord is with them. Why then do
you set yourselves above the Lord’s assembly?” (Numbers 16:3). In other words, Moses
behaved as a dictator. As a result of Korah complaint, his followers and his
clan are destroyed by God. All cultures inculcate their members with
traditional ways of behaving and thinking. The difference is that Jewish
culture was totalitarian and based on an ideology. Questioning the ideology or
the priests who represented the ideology was not allowed and punished
by death, as Jesus found out. What was new was oppression and censorship based on an ideology. The
Jewish ideology would be passed on to Judeo-Christians and to Judeo-Muslims who
would treat dissenters in the same manner Moses treats Korah and would use
Jewish scripture to justify doing so. Maoist China adopted Judeo-Marxism and was as intolerant of criticism and disobedience as was Moses. Sixty to eighty million people died
because of Mao’s policies. In all four cases, ideology is used as a
program, similar to a computer program, to program citizens, thus transforming
them into automatons. It is also used to justify punishing nonbelievers, skeptics, and heretics.
NORTH
KOREA
North
Korea is also a slave state. Like Russia, it is a military camp. Its sole
existence is preparation for war. It has nuclear weapons which are the sole
pride of the nation's chubby (unlike his underfed vassals) godfather Kim Jong Un. As a human society it is boring, interesting only as a pathology. It produces nothing intellectually, culturally, or technologically
that is of use or interest to the rest of the world. North Korea comes closest
to the former slave plantations in America. And no matter how orderly a national slave plantation is, it's not a civilization. It’s a dystopia.
War and the Triune of Evil
Russia,
China, and North Korea each have targets for war. Bully Russia has already
launched a war against little Ukraine. Russian tanks have crushed beneath their tracks men,
women, and children . Russia snipers explode the head any
Ukrainian—man, woman or child that gets in their sights. Russian missiles have
been destroying cities. That Russian soldiers have been throwing Ukrainian
babies in the air and catching them on bayonets is an unverified rumor. You believe I go too far, but this is what Will Durant tells us in his The Age of Louis XIV about the Cossacks' killing of Poles, Ukrainians, Jews and others:
Killing was accompanied by
barbarous tortures: the victims were flayed alive, split asunder, clubbed to
death, roasted on coals, or scalded with boiling water. . . . The Most terrible
cruelty, however, was shown to the Jews. They were destined to utter
annihilation, and the slightest pity shown to them was looked upon as treason.
Scrolls of the Law were taken out of the synagogues by Cossacks, who danced on
them while drinking whiskey. After this Jews were laid upon them and butchered
without mercy. Thousands of Jewish were thrown into wells, or buried alive. (467)
No reason to wonder what
binds Poles and Ukrainians: they are bound by blood spilt by Russians.
Greta, you’ve just looked into that dark cauldron of masculinity that Freud called the id, though apparently he believed it existed equally in both men and women. It doesn’t, and he made that assumption because he couldn’t see beyond his own masculinity. Women too have their primordial emotions and impulses, but they originate in sensuality, love, birth, and child rearing. Greek goddesses tell us a lot about the feminine. Here are just a few: Achelois, moon goddess whose name means “she who washes away pain”; Antheia goddess of gardens, flowers, swamps, and marshes; Aphrodite goddess of love and beauty; Demeter goddess of agriculture, fertility, sacred law and the harvest; and your favorite GAIA primal Greek goddess of Earth. The ancient Greeks valued equally the masculine and the feminine.
Judaism is a masculine religious ideology that worships a tyrant of masculinity. It is the deification of the masculine id. Apostle Paul, who converted pagans to the neoJudaism, Christianity, didn’t care much for women or Earthly existence. You might know that to him the central goal in life was to escape worldly existence for existence in the postmortem. But don’t despair. There are plenty of good men who want to serve the Good, not God. What is the Good? Mother Earth, nature, men and women, love and children, home, neighborhood, community, and civilization. There are good men who are not slaves to the masculine id because they serve morality and other human being. They are altruists. You need to appeal to them or else you have no chance of realizing your goal of preventing nature from becoming unbalanced and chaotic.
Unlike cowardly Putin hiding in his fortified castle, Ukrainian
President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, wearing helmet and flak vest refuses to evacuate:
“I need ammunition, not a ride,” he bravely says. While chicken hawk Vladimir
the Trembler hides, brave Ukrainian soldier have
been giving Putin’s Russia a
bloody nose. And Ukrainian women? “More than 60,000 Ukrainian women serve in
the Ukrainian military defending their homeland against Russian aggression. Tens of thousands
more do their part to help their country as journalists, paramedics, teachers,
politicians and artists.” The women and their children are certainly worth
fighting and dying for.
China
wants to capture Taiwan, a civilized democratic nation that means no harm to
anyone. Communist thug Xi Jinping Chairman of the Central Military Commission
has already sent three dozen war planes over Taiwan to frighten women and
children. Once China has completed its carnage in Taiwan and transformed the
island nation into a re-education camp that will transform the Taiwanese into obedient
husks, then China will seek control of the entire Pacific Rim and beyond.
The
pathetic leader of North Korea has his sights on South Korea and Japan, but
essentially Kim Jong-un is a chubby Chinese puppet. Still he is a dangerous puppet
since he is a psychopath in control of nuclear weapons, but then aren’t they
all. No question mark needed.
America, God’s Savior of the World?
No
The Slaughtering of Native Americans
During
America’s history, its orators claimed that America would show the world what a
civilized nation is: “As a ‘Poem on the Rising Glory of America’ had foretold
as early as 1772, Americans believed their the ‘happy land’ was destined to
become the ‘the seat o empire’ and the ‘final stage’ of civilization” (American History: A Survey, Alan Brinkley,
et al. 194). It has failed miserably. As an American born during World War II, I
really wanted to be able—like those former Americans—to present my country as a
hero to the world. It was but only briefly after that war. Europeans
came to North America not too long ago. America is only 245 years old. China is
about 4000 to 4200 years old, and still has not learned how to behave in a
civilized manner.
One
would have thought those invading Europeans and later the Americans would have
been grateful and benevolent having inherited by theft a part of the world that
really was an Eden. But no. The slaughter of the Indians began almost
immediately. For example, on May 26, 1637, the Pequot massacre occurred. A
pre-dawn attack on Mystic Fort that left 500 adults and children of the Pequot
tribe dead; soldiers set fire to the structures and burned the remaining people
there alive. (Wow! That sounds just like what Russian soldiers are doing in
Ukraine.) The killers of the Indians were Puritans,
so mentally possessed by the Jewish ideology of the Old Testament that preaches
that such slaughter is divinely justified. The slaughter of the native peoples
would be repeated throughout American history—always justified by Jewish
ideology. In the end, The National Archives tell us that "that between 80% and 95% of the Native American population died within the first 100-150 years of European contact with the Americas" ("Native North Americans: What was early contact like between English colonists and Native Americans?").
One
of the worst was the Wounded Knee Massacre December 29, 1890, just after
celebrating the birth of Jesus. Why was it that Americans never matured
morally? Because the so-called Good Book declares that being the enemies of God
pagans (who never considered themselves or anyone else as enemies of God) have no moral rights; thus, God (i.e., Yahweh, Christ-God, or Allah) condones their slaughter. Of interest here is that Mao used the
JudeoMarxism to justify the slaughter of millions of his own people. And it is
well known that Putin is a God-fearing Christian—or at least pretends to be.
And Little Big Man George W. Bush believed he was doing God’s work when he had the
American military machine invade Iraq on March 19, 2003, 366 years after the
Pequot massacre occurred. It is always God’s work, never Jesus, though he did say that he came not to bring peace but the sword. And Christians followed his words. It's a sad, sad world, Greta, because men never change.
The Enslavement of African Pagans
On
August 20, 1619, the first enslaved Africans arrive in Jamestown, kidnapped by
Christian Portuguese, and bought by Christian English colonists. And why not? The Bible
condones slavery as long as one’s own people are not enslaved. Apostle Paul
said, “Slaves, obey your earthly masters with respect and fear, and with
sincerity of heart, just as you would obey Christ” (Ephesians 6:5), not “Earthly masters
of slaves, set your slaves free or burn in Hell!” JudeoChristians considered both the conquest
of the Indians and the enslavement of Africans as being justified in two ways.
The first is the eradication of the Indians was an eradication of evil that was
an abomination to God. Second, Indians who were not killed and slaves who did
not die were given the glorious opportunity to be converted to Christianity.
No Respect for Nature’s Creatures
And
then there is this, a single example of Americans’ hatred of wild nature—and
attitude so different from that of Native Americans and other pagans: “In
addition to being driven of most of their land, the Plains Indians had also
lost the economic base of their society. For countless centuries they had
acquired food, clothing, and shelter from the meat and skins of the buffaloes,
who had roamed across the Plains in immense herds totaling person 13,000,000
animals. But the white [JudeoChristian]men almost exterminated them within
a quarter of a century. Buffaloes made easy targets, and shooting them, in many
instances for pure love of killing, became a popular sport. In 1883 government
agents, after scouring the Plains in search of the vanished herds, reported
that the number had been reduced to less than 200” (Henry Bamford Parkes, The United States of America: A History
424).
Wisdom and truth from John (Fire) Lame Deer: “The Buffalo was part of us, his flesh and blood being absorbed by us until it became our own flesh and blood. Our clothing, our tepees, everything we needed for life came from the buffalo's body. It was hard to say where the animals ended and the human began.” Thus, celebrating calf would have made perfect sense to the plains Indians. The Smithsonian tells us that “bison not only provided American Indians with food, shelter and tools, but a model on how to live. To American Indians, bison also represent their spirit and remind them of how their lives were once lived, free and in harmony with nature” (“American Bison and American Indian Nations”).
As for myself, I am presently eating a chicken & cheese sandwich with mayonnaise made from oil, egg yolks, and lemon juice or vinegar. The bread is made from wheat flour. I am also drinking water and coffee. Nature provided all the ingredients of my meal with the help of farmers. Being supernatural, God played no role in creating the ingredients of my lunch.
Christians, on the other hand, saw nature as an evil setting to escape from. To Apostle Paul nature was the realm of the flesh and matter, both of which he hated. He preferred the nebulous realm of the spirit. Because of Paul's teachings, Christians hated their worldly existence and couldn’t wait to escape from it via death in order to live in the postmortem spiritual realm forever praising God. Thus it is not surprising that Americans had no moral qualms about exterminating the native peoples of North America or
the buffalo. That they didn’t see their behavior as immoral is baffling until
one considers Judaism’s hatred pagans because they worshiped the multiple deities of nature. Note that the story of the Golden Calf is about Jews who wanted to return to venerating nature.
When Dictator Moses saw them singing and having a good time he orders his priests
to murder them. Yahweh joins in the slaughter. It made sense to pagans to worship nature. Nature, not God, was their great provider.
Apostle
Paul said, “Whoever sows to please their flesh, from the flesh will reap
destruction; whoever sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap
eternal life” (Galatians 6:8) And “The mind governed by the flesh is hostile to
God; it does not submit to God’s law, nor can it do so” (Romans 8:7). “For
while we are in this [Earthly] tent, we groan and are burdened, because we do
not wish to be unclothed but to be clothed instead with our heavenly
dwelling... [and we] know that as long as we are at home in the body we are
away from the Lord” (2 Corinthians 5:4-6). For Paul the material world was the
flesh world that one needed to escape from.
Jesus
said, “If you would be perfect, go sell what you possess and give to the poor,
and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me” (Matthew 19:21).
Both men were celibate rejected the conventional life of falling in love,
marrying, having children, working, and providing for one’s family, and looking
forward to growing old with one’s grandchildren. Paul considered sex evil—ergo,
having no children was the ideal life.
As
the realm of the flesh nature was seen as evil, Satan's playground; thus people—such as Native
Americans—who worship nature were evil. Jesus said “follow me,” in other words
surrender oneself not to an Earthly way of life but to a religious ideology. Women were better off living in convents, monks in monasteries, and priests living
unmarried. I do find it strange that this negative attitude toward the flesh
didn’t prevent celebrating the Eucharist—the symbolic eating Jesus’ flesh and
drinking his blood, considered cannibalistic to the Romans.
Also
astounding was the inability of the Americans to see the beauty of wild nature.
But no, wilderness was evil and must be tamed. Republicans, more than Democrats,
see nature as nothing more than a repository of raw resources. One recalls
Donald Trump’s attempt to Open Arctic Refuge to oil and gas development, a move
that overturned six decades of protections for the largest remaining stretch of
wilderness in the United States. To do this the Trump Administration attempted to reverse nearly 100
environmental rules. For that alone he and the Republican Party deserved to
lose the election.
Republicans
wear contact lenses with dollar signs so all they see in nature is money,
money, money. That’s what makes them environmental scrooges and impossible for
lovers of nature and wildlife to vote for. I vote for neither party. How can I
vote for Democrats who hate me, hate my mother and father, aunts and uncles, and
ancestors, just ordinary working people who as far as I know never owned a
slave or killed a buffalo. Thus, I hate both parties equally; that’s call
equity. Was that vitriol, Greta? I guess you and I are more alike than I first
realized.
America as a Role Model for Peace
Don’t
think so. The entire history of America is a history of warfare. Americans even
engaged in slaughtering one another during the Civil War, which again was
triggered by an economy that depended on human beings being considered private
property. America’s wars were usually wars of aggression. Seldom were they Good
Samaritan Wars. After World War II began, Americans grudgingly got involved
only because of the Japanese (Hitler’s allies) attack on Pearl Harbor, December
7, 1941, two years after the war started, September 1, 1939. Americans would
have allowed Hitler and his allies to gobble up Europe. America’s attitude was
that of Sweden’s and Switzerland’s. In Good Samaritan fashion Britain and
France entered the Second World War following the German invasion of Poland in
September 1939.
Ditto
that for World War I which started 28 July 1914. The Germans invaded Belgium 4th
August 4, 1914, and the Good Samaritan British declare war on Germany the same
day. I might be an American but my heroes are the British. The Americans enter
the war April 4, 1917, or 2 years, 8 months, 8 days later because of Germany's resumption of submarine
attacks on passenger and merchant ships in 1917. That reminds me of the illegal
alien Fiston Ngoy raping a woman on board a metro Philadelphia train as 10
bystanders on the train did nothing but pull out their phones to film the
assault.
At
least the women did their part in both wars while the U.S. waited on the
sidelines:
When
Americans consider other nations being invaded by Germans or Russians, they
think mostly about the men, but women and children are always affected by war. And there were the female spies of World War II: https://www.historic-uk.com/HistoryUK/HistoryofBritain/The-Female-Spies-Of-SOE/
The video
game Velvet Assassin was inspired by Violette Szabo, executed at Ravensbrück
concentration camp, 1945. Motivated by the he Blitz, a German bombing campaign against
the United Kingdom in 1940 and 1941, during the Second World War, that killed
and maimed mostly civilians, she enlisted in the Auxiliary Territorial Service
(ATS) on 11 September 1941. Americans were twiddling their thumbs waiting for a
selfish reason for entering the war.
They Returned as Heroes
The American men and women who fought the war were heroes. And they returned to
America wanting a better America, one that reflected their own goodness and
sacrifice. But the betrayal started early by two of the great men of the war: “UK
prime minister Winston Churchill and the Eisenhower administration (the vice president
was Tricky Dick Nixon) decided in early 1953 to overthrow Iran's government” (“Operation
Ajax,” Wikipedia). Eisenhower had the
CIA participate with the British government to overthrow the democratically
elected government of Iranian Prime Minister Muhammad Mosaddegh, who died under
house arrest.
The
coup d'état was called Operation Ajax. The motivation of the coup was — to put into
power a pro-British-American puppet government, the dictatorship of the Shah,
Muhammad Reza Pahlavi, that would ensure British Petroleum would continue to
control Iranian oil production. Is it any wonder that the people of the Middle
East hate America? We believed Eisenhower and Churchill to be wise men. They
weren’t. Apparently wisdom and politics are incompatibles. Yet, the coup had other
supporters. Political stupidity would be powerless were it not for the fact
that stupid politicians always have stupid supporters that are easily led.
Lyndon B. Johnson’s Cruel &
Unnecessary War
LBJ
became president because the lecherous
adulterer John F. Kennedy was assassinated. LBJ was a chicken-hawk blinded by
JudeoChristianity. Johnson made illegal and immoral political decisions because
he had become thoroughly Judaized growing up in the Texas Bible-belt . Johnson’s
family were Christadelphians, who believe the Jews are the chosen people (they
actually chose themselves as Yahweh’s chosen people), that Jesus is the
Messiah, and that the Kingdom of Israel would be restored as prophesized in the
Bible. (There is no hope for humanity when people willingly believe such
invented nonsense.) This is why President Johnson ordered the recall of
American planes sent to rescue the USS Liberty
that had been attack by the Israelis “with the comment that he did not care if
every man drowned and the ship sank, but that he would not embarrass his
allies,” meaning Israel. (“USS Liberty incident,” Wikipedia) (Israel an ally? Since when? Israel is an ally only to itself. Isn't that the other meaning of the Good Samaritan parable?) Two questions:
first, who side was he on? Second, did LBJ consider Israel a religious or a
political ally? Political allies don’t behave as enemies.
Johnson
was a member of the Disciples of Christ. So Johnson lived in two worlds or
histories—one factual and the other mythological when he launched the Vietnam
War. History has shown that religious mythology influences the way humans think
thus the way they behave. For example, I assume Johnson thought of himself as
God’s Commander in Chief, as did the Christian Roman emperors and European kings,
and as did President George W. Bush did when he became president. And certainly
Muslim political leaders throughout the ages have thought of themselves in that
way. Johnson believed that he was engaged in God’s war against godless
Communism. Thus, the collisions of two Judaisms.
The
consequences: 58,220 U.S. military fatal casualties. Vietnam lost between
171,331 and 220,357 men, defenders of the homeland reminiscent of the homeland defenders of the Iraq War.
As many as 2,000,000 civilians were killed. Until the war in Afghanistan the
Vietnam War (1955 – 1975, 19.4 years) was America’s longest war. What you see
here is not wisdom but the reign of folly. Look a Johnson’s face and you will
see that same evil of stupidity that you see in Putin’s face.
The Situation Didn’t Improve
The
war made millions of young Americans and adults realize that America’s
political system would not allow America to become one of good guys that so
many Americans wanted after World War II. The sleazy slippery slope initiated
by LBJ would continue.
Richard Nixon of Watergate infamy became
president. Like Trump, he tried to cheat democracy. He was a rotten tooth in a
mouth of rotten teeth.
Then
came Jimmy Carter, a good man who
was no match against the corrupt, immoral stupid politicians occupying the
political swamp that Washington had become.
Then came the savior of the Republicans Party (until Trump) Ronald Reagan who granted amnesty to
approximately three million immigrants who were in the United States illegally.
In Washington crime does pay. Upon signing that act of surrender at a ceremony
held beside the newly refurbished Statue of Liberty, the first step was taken
toward immigration debacle that has pretty wrecked America.
Then
came George H. Bush who after Gulf
War could have legally removed from power the evil Saddam Hussein, who in Putin
fashion tried to conquer a tiny country (Kuwait). Hussein should have been
hauled before the World Court for crimes against humanity. The Iraqis would
have rejoiced. But Bush Senior decided to keep Saddam in power to keep Iran at
bay and to keep Iraq stable. And then there was all that oil to be considered. So
the U.S. government betrayed both Iran (a second time) and the Iraqi people. Again
no wisdom, only stupidity. Bush Jr. would seek payback because his daddy had
become a laughingstock among the Hussein cult. Besides, like LBJ he was on the
prayer phone with the Almighty so believed would be a winner with God’s help,
just as the Jews believed when they started the war with the Romans. Though eventually a Jew would destroy Rome in David and Goliath fashion—not Jesus but his false apostle Paul, with the help of the Judas Emperor Constantine I who used the Christian ideology as a weapon to realize his will to power.
But
before Bush's destruction of Baghdad came lecherous, decadent Bill Clinton who turned the White House into a whorehouse with the
help of a Jewess Judas who used Bill’s penis as a dagger to stab him in the
back. It is about this time that the U.S. government became a circus of
demented clowns and America increasingly became a Gotham City. Hollywood
would grease the downward slope with endless decadence and contempt for anything and everything American.
Bill’s
decadence made possible for the return of Bush family led by the Little Boy Bush Jr. A boy dressed as a man
so inept that he would create endless America destroying havoc unknown since
LBJ. He did LBJ one better by getting America into two very long, cruel, unjust,
totally demoralizing, America degrading wars at the same time, in Afghanistan
and Iraq. The Iraq War was totally unnecessary but little George Custer Bush wanted to make
amends for Daddy big screw-up. The cost of his presidential malpractice was astounding coming from a village idiot. His private and totally unnecessary
war with Iraq caused at least one hundred thousand civilian deaths, as well as
tens of thousands of military deaths, including 4,431 total American deaths and
31,994 wounded in action. (Actually, George Jr. should have been hauled before
the International Court of Justice as a war criminal.) His war in Afghanistan
would result in 2,401 United States military deaths and 20,752 American service
members wounded. And Bush boy didn’t even kill the master mind of the 9-11
attacks, Osama bin Laden! Not only that he encouraged illegal immigration by
waving the Mexican flag to immigrants crossing the Rio Grande. He used a little American flag as a handkerchief.
Bush
had made such a mess of things that a black man who like Kamala Harris wasn’t
even an American black whose ancestors had been slaves, but an imported black Barack Obama. With a name like that he
had no chance once in office. All the haters of black people came out of the woodwork. Still,
he did do what Bush boy couldn’t do: he took out Osama bin Laden. And the hated
Obama not only had Osama bin Laden killed, he ended the wet foot, dry foot
policy for Cuban immigrants—which Republicans supported. This policy meant that
Cubans who reach the U.S. could become automatically U.S. citizens. Republicans
supported the policy because of their hatred of Castro. They didn’t care about
the demographic impact on the U.S. only about their ideology. Republicans have
never really been against open borders (the Koch family, for example). They saw
illegal immigrants as cheap labor, more consumers, and bigger profits. However,
Obama’s vice president would drive the final nail into America’s coffin by
completely opening America’s borders. I didn’t think any politician hated the
country that much.
But
before then came the narcissistic flimflam man and illiterate joker (as in Batman) Donald Trump. It was as if a combination of the Kardashians, the
Hollywood Hillbillies, and the Addams’ Family had moved into the White House
with a MacDonald’s vending machine in every room. Trump wasn’t an American
president but a cult leader. His rallies proved that much. They were carnivals
of sycophants looking and behaving like the guests on The Jerry Springer Show. That is what America has become. Anyway, they made sure that America would never be great again. The slippery slope had become a free fall.
Finally,
we hit bottom with Joe Biden the
walking bedpan. Who would have ever thought such a man could become president, a
sniffer of young girls, a man lost in the maze of his own mind, a man who life
has been a long Walter Mitty fantasy, and a man who thoroughly hates everything
about America and whose administration consisted of other haters of America.
He cares more about aliens crossing the border in hordes and Ukrainians than he
does about Americans. Actually, Biden has no people. He is a willing tool of
the cancel-America hater. Watching him one sees a hollow man, a scarecrow
made of chaff standing alone watching strange birds consuming the bounty
planted by working men and women. If one looks at his legacy one find nothing noble. He ended the war in Afghanistan by suddenly leaving like a
husband walking out on his wife and kids leaving them to fend for themselves.
Besides that, he abandoned enough military equipment to arm a small nation but
would in up in the hands of the enemy. Go figure!
At
least Donald Trump pretended to be an American. The revelation is that Trump
and Biden are the proper figureheads of what America has become. They are
strawmen incapable of inspiring or leading Americans. The nation has become
like a 1000 piece puzzle of which none of the pieces fit together. They are
broken men who can’t fix the country because it’s beyond repair in part because
Americans no longer agree on what the country should be. The Biden
administration believes that if enough money is given away the country will fix
itself. One realizes how bad the situation is when one tries to imagine
America’s future and the only thing that comes to mind is helter-skelter.
Dead Men
At
night do evil, stupid men ever look up at the stars, marvel at mountains, meadows
or lakes? No. They are too trapped in
their bloated egos, ideologies, wills to power, greediness, pathological narcissism,
and other obsessions to experience the world with appreciative awareness. They are
dead men, the walking dead, hollow men, husks who believe they see and
understand but are blind and trapped in stupidity. One cannot feel sorry for
these dead men no more than one can feel sorry for the cancer that kill men,
women, and children. The harm they’ve caused is unforgivable. That is the other
reason Hell was invented, in hopes that evil men who go unpunished in this
world will get their just reward in Hell. But there is no Hell thus no final
justice. The only Hell is the one created by men such as Putin and the others
mentioned above. Qoheleth the preacher saw the truth of evil and injustice over two
thousand years ago:
All things are full of weariness;
a man cannot utter it;
the eye is not satisfied with seeing,
nor the ear fill with hearing.
Again I saw all the oppressions that are practiced under the sun.
And behold, the tears of the oppressed,
And they had no one to comfort them!
In my vain life I have seen everything;
the a righteous man who perishes in his righteousness
and the wicked man who prolongs his life in his evil doing. (Ecclesiastes)
Tucker Carlson, Tulsi Gabbard
Disgrace themselves
The
extent of America’s self-centered decadence is reveled in a Tucker Carlson segment titled “Tucker:
Does Biden want war?” It is a loaded question implying an unjustified
assumption of guilt. Its purpose is to slander Biden even when he does
something good and right, and by doing so he disgraces himself. That
is all we get from the Republican Party and its supporters in the news media.
Ditto that for the Democratic Party news pundits. Objective, respectable
newsmen such as Walter Cronkite and Edward
R. Murrow no longer exist. Today’s news agencies have become propaganda mills, each
side representing political ideologies, not news per se. News provides a
platform that enables the two groups to go after one another and to espouse the
ideologies and political celebrities they represent. This us-versus-them
mindset is also part of Washington politics. The conflict has little to do with concern for the American people. They are simply spectators who can really
do nothing but look on. Votes don’t matter nor does viewership. What Americans
get is all bad. There are exceptions, a few politicians who work outside of
Washington and subterranean news commentators who broadcast on YouTube platforms until deleted. However, this episode
sadly reveals the petty character of America’s decadent self-centeredness.
Jake
Sullivan, Biden's national security advisor, says he can’t predict what is
going to happen in the Ukraine and wisely tells Americans there to leave. Even
Ukrainians have been leaving by the tens of thousands. But Carlson is quite
willing to offer predictions of the future if by doing so he can criticize
Biden. The show implies that Biden wants war with Russia. That’s incorrect.
Biden said that no American troops would be sent to Ukraine. What Biden
actually said was that if Russia invades NATO countries, America would support
those countries. Of course, a Republicans like Carlson care nothing about
Europe. Trump represented that view.
And
I’m sick and tired of hearing that if Trump had been president the invasion
wouldn’t have occurred. Trump withheld military aid from Ukraine. And Putin isn’t
afraid of Trump and is certainly not worried the U.S. military being sent to
defend Ukraine. To defend Europe, yes, maybe, because it would have 30 NATO
states fighting on its side, two of which have nuclear weapons. Carlson asks
how would a war with Russia make America stronger and more prosperous. Another
loaded question. Becoming stronger and more prosperous are the reasons evil
nations go to war. Many Americans thought the same way when Hitler’s war
machine was invading Poland. “Getting involved won’t benefit us.” But the British
and French didn’t ask that question. They chose to go to Poland’s aid.
Carlson’s position reminds one of the 10 bystanders on a metro Philadelphia
train who watched and did nothing while illegal alien Fiston Ngoy raped a
helpless woman. Each was probably thinking “If I try to stop the beast I might
get hurt.”
Do
nothing Carlson says that the Europeans are not concerned about a Putin blitzkrieg
into Ukraine. The truth is that they have been concerned for years that the
diabolical one would invade another country because having the imagination of a
virus or bacterium that is all Vladimir Makarov Putin thinks about—invading,
hurting, harming, causing misery. So unlike
Trump’s withholding, military supplies to Ukraine, Europe has been sending
military aid, have imposed stiff sanctions (even from the always neutral selfish
Swiss), and have been accepting thousands of Ukrainian war refugees—not
immigrants, there’s a difference. Over a half million into Poland, which unlike
America knows what it’s like to be under the iron heal an aggressor.
Elon Musk, a friend in deed when needed, activated SpaceX’s Starlink satellites over Ukraine after a request from
the embattled country’s leadership to replace internet services destroyed by
the Russian attack. So different from the self-serving Russian oligarchs. Musk
creates wealth; unlike Putin and the Russian oligarchs who steal their wealth
from the wealth that belongs to the Russian people. Musk serves the good of the
ordinary people of Ukraine; Russian oligarchs serve Putin, the destroyer of the
ordinary people of Ukraine. By serving the Ukrainian people Musk serves moral
good; by serving Putin the Russian oligarchs serve evil and by doing so become even more evil than they were before.
For Carlson there is no reason to aid Europe
because Europeans mean nothing to him. No matter that NATO Allies went into
Afghanistan after the 9/11 terrorist attacks on the United States. No matter Great Britain, Poland, Ukraine, Romania, Denmark, Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Albania, Italy, Netherlands, Spain, etc. were American allies during Bush’s idiotic Iraq War.
I suppose that if Putin invades Poland, which evil Putin would love to do, Carlson
would say America should do nothing. The flimflam man Trump has praised Putin
whom he considers a friend. Really? How can one be the friend of someone who thinks
and behaves like Stalin? And we know how Trump feels about the Ukrainians,
having withheld military aid from them just because their president wouldn’t
find dirt on Biden’s dirty son. So now the dirty boy is the son of the
president. Such a move left Ukrainians more vulnerable to Czar Putin and his
husks.
That’s
the reason Trump lost to the pathetic drooler Biden. Trump cares only about one
thing—Trump. He is no more American than Biden or Harris or Pelosi or Schiff or
the other hollow men and women of the anti-America Democratic Party are. They
are all rich celebrities for whom Washington is a reality show. The themes are
greed, narcissism, ideology, corruption—truly like the TV series the House of Cards starring the sex sleaze
Kevin Spacey. Americans are
nothing more than the audience. Remember the fake clap Pelosi gave Trump? To
the politician performers Washington is Saturday
Night Live, a big fucking joke on the American people.
Tulsi Gabbard says Biden could have prevented the
conflict by telling Putin that Ukraine won’t become a member of NATO. Nonsense.
It’s not about NATO membership but Putin Russian expansion, as were Putin Russia’s
invasion of Georgia in 2008 and Putin Russia’s invasion of Crimean and the
annexation of the Crimean Peninsula from Ukraine in 2014. Putin Russia’s
War in Donbas during which Russia
launched a coordinated political and military campaign against Ukraine, the
result of which was 14,000 killed. President Macron spoke to Putin and Czar
Putin told Macron that nothing could stop the invasion.
Gabby
Gabbard sounds a lot like Hitler’s sycophant Neville Chamberlain who played a role
in the Munich Agreement of 1938 which ceded parts of Czechoslovakia to Hitler
and is now the most popular example of the foreign policy known as appeasement.
She and Carlson twist facts and pretend to know what’s going on just to go
after Biden—who showed more gumption than they by warning Vladimir Makarov Putin to stay out
of NATO nations. Biden also said, “I thought it was critical that there not be any doubt, none whatsoever, about U.S. support for Ukraine in the war,” and he has committed billions of dollars, artillery ammunition, TOW anti-tank missiles, tanks, air surveillance radars to help protect the Ukrainian people from aerial bombardments, howitzers, helicopters, and tons of other weaponry to Ukraine. Go, Biden! I say. Good deeds deserve praise just as bad deeds deserve condemnation. It is a shame, however, that the seven billion dollars’ worth of military equipment left behind in Afghanistan wasn’t kept for Ukraine. Nonetheless, even if Americans don't love America, the Ukrainians do.
Gabby
Gabbard says that sanctions
are a modern day siege. And that is much worse than Russia’s Blitzkrieg into
Ukraine? Jesus! Whose side is she on? She says that it is the Industrial-Military
Complex that wants war with Russia. What?! The America industrial-military complex
like Putin is in favor of only wars against small nations, not against one with
over a million soldiers and a total
nuclear warhead inventory of 5,977 - the biggest in the world. Even those
greedy stupid self-serving bastards know better than that. Only a know-nothing
FOX toady would be stupid enough to say such a thing. I used to have some respect for these two
talking heads, but I see they are on the Republican payroll. They are all fake.
Everything they say is scripted even Carlson’s fake laugh. How sad it’s all
become like a surreal carnival fools.
Poor
Gabby Gabbard reminds me of Biden, a nobody who so badly wants to be a
somebody, which really is a common theme in Washington–though Putin the Pathetic also comes to mind. Politicians are the
only people who can become celebrity stars without doing anything but getting enough
votes. She feels so sorry for the Russian people. Why? THEY ARE THE INVADERS!
Would she have felt sorry for the German people during W.W. II? Why is it that
she can’t tell the difference between invader and the invaded? Even if Biden wanted the war, Putin is the one who went to war. And then FOX
toady Babbler Carlson jumps in to repeat “Why aren’t the Europeans afraid?”
They are. Clearly, Carlson has spent little time in Europe. Living in on
fantasy resort Gasparilla Island how can he know their fears? To be fair to
Carlson, he had no choice given the zombie hit-squads Antifa and Black Lives
Matter have been hunting conservatives. For conservatives, especially Republicans, big cities have become like Raccoon City in Resident
Evil. That shows just how far mighty America has fallen into a Charles Manson state of Helter Skelter.
The Greatest Generation
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bP6cm6YKLAo
In
this video FDR’s words could be those of Ukraine’s president Volodymyr
Zelenskyy. Before becoming president he was comedian. Like most ordinary people
he is a family man who just wanted live life and have some fun. But the world
is full of evil men like the diabolical Putin who won’t allow ordinary people
to live peacefully and have a little fun. These are men with big egos and big
plans that require domination and destruction of other people who just want to
be left alone. Yet, in America today the Great Generation of Americans are
hated for being Americans. It is sad to see how far America has fallen from that
generation. When World War II ended it was a moment for America to decide to become
a wise, humane society, which it failed to accomplish.
It didn’t choose–or the politicians didn't–to become wise and humane but to be foolish and inhumane. The
anti-Vietnam War counterculture saw the wrong choice had been made. They wanted
free speech, equality, world peace, and the pursuit of happiness and love, not
unnecessary though profitable wars. But like the youth of your generation, Greta,
they were ignored. So they dropped out, turned on to drugs imported from south of the border, and transformed themselves from a counterculture of love and peace to one of hate and self-loathing.
And
Ukrainians have been afraid for years. One can see that reality doesn’t matter
either of the two talking heads. They are prevaricators who twist reality to
drum up hatred of the Democrats—who don’t need their help because most
Americans believe that the Democrats have betrayed them and the country. To
Democrats, the word American is a
slur. And actually their Trump-like, heartfelt concern for the Russians will
have the counter unintended effect of their having become recruiters for the
Democratic Party. It's called the tar baby trap. In this case the two dolts got caught in trap they themselves set! What they have forgotten is that most Americans don’t like
bad guys. And making Biden and his ilk the bad guys and Russians the good guys
has a boomerang effect that makes the two talking heads look like evil
sympathizers.
And
you can see how they twist the facts in Gabby Gabbard contradiction: Europe
want Ukraine in NATO but that will never happen. Why? Because Europe does not
want Ukraine in NATO. The reality is that were it not for Russia, which was
once the Soviet Union by the way, there would be no need for NATO. Then Babbler
Carlson jumps in asking why Americans would want Ukraine in NATO. What! Most
Americans never gave a shit about Ukraine because most of them didn’t know that
there was such a country, though thanks to Putin now they do, just as they
didn’t know that there was a Vietnam or Afghanistan or Iraq. Most Americans
think Europe is a nation. Babbler Carlson’s constant refrain is “IS THERE SOME
BENEFIT TO AMERICA?” The 10 bystanders on a metro Philadelphia train probably
asked the same question: “Would there be some benefit to me rescuing the woman
being raped?” The Good Samaritan could have asked the same question, but he
didn’t:
A man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, when he was attacked by robbers. They stripped him of his clothes, beat him and went away, leaving him half dead. A priest happened to be going down the same road, and when he saw the man, he passed by on the other side. So too, a Levite, when he came to the place and saw him, passed by on the other side. But a Samaritan, as he traveled, came where the man was; and when he saw him, he took pity on him. He went to him and bandaged his wounds, pouring on oil and wine. Then he put the man on his own donkey, brought him to an inn and took care of him. The next day he took out two denarii and gave them to the innkeeper. “Look after him,” he said, “and when I return, I will reimburse you for any extra expense you may have.” (Luke 10:30-35)
What was
the benefit? The satisfaction of helping a person or any creature who is
suffering. It’s called altruism. It’s a moral good.
Then
Gabbard says she has a hard time with anyone saying “We are defending
Democracy.” Sorry, Gabby, but it’s about defending mothers and their children
from Vladimir Makarov Putin’s war machine. War should never be about defending
an abstraction. So where did you get that idea? Who said we must go to war with
Russia to save Ukrainian democracy? Democracy doesn’t work in the U.S., says
Putin laughing out loud. To both of you talking heads it’s all about Biden.
That is all American people get from mainstream news: attacks on Trump and
attacks on Biden. Yes, both are fools who should have never been presidents but
are because the America is decadent like Russia run by wealthy oligarchs, and wise
men rarely become politicians, the American political system is broken. The
world is bigger than Trump and Biden and a hell of a lot more interesting.
Gabby
Gabbard complains that Biden has supported authoritarianism which she says
(correctly) is going on in the U.S. today. But the implication is that
Republicans never supported authoritarian regimes. Give me a break! They have repeatedly—like Saudi Arabia, which deserves a lot of credit or the 9-11 attacks: "Of the 19 Al Qaeda terrorists who hijacked four U.S. commercial airliners on the morning of September 11, 2001, 15 were citizens of Saudi Arabia." See "House of Bush, House of Saud," Wikipedia.
But notice that Gabbard’s last shot is at Ukraine, that being an authoritarian
regime its people don’t deserve our support. Former comedian Jewish Zelenskyy became
president of Ukraine after a landslide election victory in which he received 73
per cent of the vote. How is that an authoritarian regime? With 39% of the world’s
Jewish population, the Americans would never elect a Jew as president—though they have elected plenty of comedians. It was authoritarian Russia that invaded democratic
Ukraine. It is not about authoritarianism but about women and
children being killed by bullets, bombs, and rockets. So what we’ve witnessed
here is propaganda from FOX/Republican talking heads, not unlike the propaganda
spewed out by CNN & Friends working for the Marxist Democratic Party.
Most Pathetic Tucker Carlson
In
a YouTube broadcast titled “These are
the realities that actually matter,” Biden’s puppet Jen Psaki makes the point that
standing up for our values has costs. Fair enough says Carlson but then asks, “What
are our values and what is the cost.” He answers the questions: Gas prices are
our values and the increase in gas prices would be an unbearable cost paid.
Then comes the kicker: $5 for a gallon of gas is “a tragedy for a lot of
people.” No, $5 a gallon of gas is not a tragedy. And would be less burdensome if the U.S had decent public transportation like that of France, whom Republicans hate more than any other nation. This is a tragedy:
The
mass exodus of refugees from Ukraine to the eastern edge of the European Union
showed no signs of stopping Monday, with the U.N. estimating more than 520,000
people have already escaped Russia’s burgeoning war against Ukraine. (AP News)
Most
of the refugees are women and children who have been forced to abandon their homes. Most of the men—many civilians—have
stayed behind to fight. Like Homer’s Hector in the Iliad, they are the good defenders of homeland and family. A
tragedy is a woman being raped on a train while 10 other passengers look on.
That is the tragedy born from me-generation decadence. From The Guardian “Children, teachers:
civilian casualties of the Ukraine conflict.” That’s a tragedy. In addition, the article
says, “The truth, they say, is the first casualty of war.”
Back
in the U.S. as Gabby Gabbard and Babbler Carlson illustrate that the truth has
been a casualty of political claptrap
for decades in the U.S., going as far back as the Vietnam War—certainly much
farther such as when American generals told Native Americans that they would
honor treaties. One news source claims “Day 5 of Russia-Ukraine war:
Over 5,000 people, including 14 kids, killed so far, say reports.” That’s a
tragedy because it was unnecessary, the result of an evil will to power and
conquest. Of interest, the citizens of European countries providing Ukrainian
freedom fighters with support already pay $6 to $7 a gallon for gas (France $7.67, Germany $7.42, Greece $7.54, Poland $5.84, etc.). And unlike
Americans, Europeans depended heavily on Russian oil and gas exports, but they are not
wimping out by whining that an increase in gas prices would be a tragedy.
The
death of the diabolical Russian Reapers of course is not a tragedy but a
victory against evil. Willingly or not, those who serve evil are themselves
evil. The sad, sad lesson here is that things will never change. Evil men such
as wormy heart Putin will always be with us just as cancer will be. They are as
much a part of the human condition as are old age and death. So good men, who
care about women and children, must always be ready to confront evil because
though evil cannot be finally defeated the good can be defeated.
The good news for you, Greta, is that all that bloodshed caused by Putin-Russia has spurred in Europe green energy development and installation. New French law will blanket parking lots with solar panels: "It will require all parking lots larger than about 16,000 square feet — able to hold roughly 50 American-sized cars, and more French ones — to build raised solar-panel canopies covering at least half of the surface of the parking lot. (Michael Birnbaum, The Washington Post):
Shadehouses covered with solar panels are seen at Disneyland Paris in Marne-la-Vallee.
"The measure could add 10 nuclear power plants’ worth of solar panels atop parking lots." See, America, socialism need not equal communism and can create jobs and improve lives. See, Putin-Russia, a nation can choose to be like France a creator or a like Russia a destroyer. Go France!
For
Gabby Gabbard and Babbler Carlson the only war worth worrying about is the war
between the Democrats and their talking heads and the Republicans and their
talking heads such as Gabby and Babbler. In a YouTube piece titled “This is moral blackmail,” Babbler Carlson works
very hard to convince us that morality is being used to encourage action that
is evil, a tragedy. It’s as if moral awareness is burdensome just as higher gas
prices are a tragedy. What really angers the Babbler is that Biden is taking
the moral high ground which means the Babbler’s do-nothing position (because
doing something would be burdensome) takes the moral low ground. And the
talking heads—Gabbard & Carlson—claim that Biden wants a war with Russia is
logical fallacy—an appeal to fear and a distortion of the truth.
Kristi Noem Gets It Right
In
her commentary “This is what Biden Gave Putin,” Kristi Noem, a rare decent, intelligent, and America-loving politician got it
right because she doesn’t loudly declare that Biden wants a war with Russia. She’s
not looking to smear Biden—he does that just by being who he is. She just looks
at his bad policy. First, Europe and the U.S. should have been focusing on
energy independence so they don’t have to be enslaved to Nazi Putin. Poor
little Greta Thunberg was hoping that the first priority for the world would be
preventing global warming because being just a kid who still believed in the
goodness of adults she couldn’t face the real threat to humanity—masculine
aggression, global stupidity, and the threat of a conventional war going
nuclear. The most pressing priority is and always has been national survival,
meaning the survival of people today in the here and now. She’s disappointed in
huMANity. And she should be.
If
there were no evil, uncivilized men in the world such as Harbinger Putin, then
we could focus on the civilized matters such as the environment. But these evil
entities won’t allow that. When it comes to survival—right now—environmental
considerations are secondary—national borders are primary. So responding to the
demands of the leftist anti-America coalition led by death-to-America Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez
and her fifth column Democratic squad, Biden arbitrarily canceled the Keystone
Pipeline putting thousands of ordinary Americans out of work and jeopardizing
the energy survival of America and its ability to help Russian dependent
countries in Europe. Bedpan Biden rotting brain was ripe for subversion, just
as was G.W. Bush tiny brain was ripe for subversion by Jewish neoconservatives.
Read
https://speakingaboutnothing.blogspot.com/2021/09/the-roots-of-biden-harris-marxist.html in this blog for more of the ugly
truth about America’s decline and fall from not a very great height.
Credit
card company shill Biden was always more about self-promotion than about being
wise. Poor Greta, allowed herself to become a slave to a global warming
political ideology that would compromise America’s energy independence,
which will be sorely needed if the diabolical Putin and his army of husks
invade Sweden. (Will we still be able to buy IKEA? ask Babbler Carlson. What a
tragedy if not. RIP Sweden.)
To
address Czar Putin cyber-attacks Kristi Noem says the U.S. needs to develop
cybersecurity and notes that South Dakota has a university doing just
that. She focuses on issues rather than being a Republican attack dog mauling
Biden. And unlike Babbler Carlson, her interviewer Stephen Doocy (a friend to America in spite of serving FOX) at
least recognizes that Russia’s strongman Putin as an evil man who has
evil destructive plans for Europe and the U.S.
Even
attack dog Hannity gets it right. He
knows that Biden is not a friend to America and points out that America’s import of Russian oil
double last year under Biden. He says in spite of Putin’s invasion of Ukraine
and his war crimes the U.S. continued to import 500,000 barrels of oil every
single day—when America shouldn't import anything from Russia or China, for that matter. As a practical matter, it's like feeding a pet crocodile. Eventually, the feeder becomes its supper. Or as a moral matter, it's like doing business with Hitler or Stalin or Mao. Why do we continue to empower our greatest threats to us and world
peace—Russia and China? Ignorance, decadence, and greed are why. To his credit,
on March 8 President Biden announced a ban on U.S. imports of petroleum, coal,
and natural gas from Russia. One can dislike Biden but good deeds should be
praised whether or not you like the person. A principle neither Republicans nor
Democrats follow. Their principle is a good deed done by a political opponent
is to be condemned as an evil deed. Still, instead of finding ways to free
Europe from the evil empire of Russia by providing European nations with gas
and oil, Biden put a pause on oil and gas leases in America the very same day the
rabid bear invaded Ukraine. That act deserves condemnation.
The logic deeds: Good deeds should be praised. Bad deeds should be condemned. However, good deeds cannot compensate for bad deeds. And evil deeds negate good deeds. In the end, like it or not, a person is a composite of good and bad deeds or all good deeds or all bad deeds. And they are all a matter of free choice, so there are no excuses. Thus, people who commit evil deeds during their lives end their lives in the evil category in spite of their good deeds.
What about the Green New Deal? It's a program you would love, and just might be good for the country. But it reveals why nothing good can get done for the country. Its leader is hate-America Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez who uses a good idea as a weapon kind of like the fake clap Pelosi gave Trump. Because perhaps a good idea (if its cost was reduced) comes from a American hater who uses the program to antagonize Republicans and their supporters and thus it failed failed to advance in the Senate though half the country was in favor of it. America is a divided country, no just politically, most countries are like France but culturally. The Democrats and the Republicans are like the Hatfields and the McCoys. They don't just disagree but hate one another, consider one another enemies. In spite of political differences the French are still united enough to come together over programs that benefit citizens and the environment. In other words, political rancor will not prevent programs that benefit the country—such as universal health care, public transportation, and renewable, non-polluting energy—from being passed. In the U.S. political rancor does result in the welfare of the country being ignored. You see, Greta, I've known for a longtime that American political systems has been broken for a very long time, but I believed that after World War II it would get better. I'm sure many Americans believed that would happen after the Civil War. It didn't then or after War World II. It has only gotten worse. However, what I didn't realize until recently is that not not only is the political system broken but the country itself is broken—fragmented into pieces, more precisely. And it is beyond repair. It has become a nation made of multiple hostile fragments of ethnicities, histories, cultures, religious and secular ideologies, and political systems. In such a social morass a unified nation and culture cannot emerge. Originally Christianity unified the country but with pernicious effect. The united states are no longer united as they briefly were during the great war I was born into. Chaos has come again to America, and what has emerged is a society that exists in state that Thomas Hobbes describes as bellum omnium contra omnes, "war of all against all." So you and I both have something to be sad about.
In
the Hannity piece Biden says we must start seeing ourselves for who we are:
“Fellow Americans.” We're not fellow Americans. There is no such thing. Biden
has just allowed a million plus non-Americans into the country, none of whom
identify with America, have no roots in American history or culture, thus
cannot be nor ever will be “fellow Americans.” Even he, Harris, and Pelosi are not fellow Americans because they are not American at all. They hate
America and their supporters and fellow Democrats hate America. They laughed as
America burned. Harris is a paper American, a fake black American, with no
roots in American history most importantly slavery. Pelosi is an anti-American
Marxist. And Biden hates America because Americans never have and still don’t
recognize him as having any more substance than a depleted credit card. A shill
for the credit card companies who sent Americans into bankruptcy who overused
their credit cards to pay medical bills. That’s no way to win friends. There
is nothing American about that triune. It’s as if the country is being ruled by Julius
and Ethel Rosenberg.
These
are heroes and patriots: “Ukraine Invasion: Volunteers queue to join Ukrainian
army” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SfkzOwoDB2A
America has
become a gutted country. How is possible that U.S. citizens would do as the
brave Ukrainians are doing when half the population rejects America, the other
half feels betrayed by the government, and the millions of leftovers are from
other countries to which their loyalties lies. They are in U.S. for the
cornucopia of free benefits given to them by the Biden government. Really, how
is it possible to be patriotic in a country whose inhabitants burned cities and
are applauded by Democratic politicians? The Republican Party is no longer the party of reason and responsibility but a religious cult that worships money and hates homosexuals. With Trump it became a carnival of the surreal with the cultural, philosophical depth of a tractor pull, which is great for lovers of machines such as dragsters and hot rods which I adored in the fifties, but not for a political party:
The Republican Party was once a party of rational conservatism, of moderation, and love of homeland. Its worldview was based on commonsense, not on ideology. But it was hijacked religious fundamentalism and the cult of mammon, which should have been incompatibles. The Democratic Party was once a party of the people—factory workers and farmers—but today has become a Marxist cult that is no longer a party of the American people. Both parties drifted away from the America that emerged from that terrible war. And America was lost.
Foreign Volunteers Join the Fight
for Ukraine
Sounding
a lot like Neville Chamberlain, let’s do nothing wimpy Carlson says (in his “This
is moral blackmail“ commentary) that as a result of the Putin’s war on Ukraine
“we could see many Americans die.” You know, Carlson, there are many Americans
who are willingly risk their lives each and everyday for a moral imperative and to save the
lives of others. A total of 96 firefighters died while on duty in the United States in 2021. Of those deaths, 59 were volunteer firefighters. The same year a total of 35 law enforcement officers died in the line of duty. Again the same year a total of 14 service members died due to hostile actions. In the Ukraine thousands of able-bodied men (ages 16–49) became soldiers. They don’t worry about increasing prices at the pump. The Babbler
simply ignores Biden’s having said no American troops will be involved in
Ukraine. What more is Biden expected to do, cut off his pinky finger to prove
that he means what he says? But for Babbler Carlson it’s Biden, not Putin, who
is the enemy.
Putinspeak: “The Europeans are
coming! We must invade Ukraine!”
The
idea that Europe is a threat Russia’s national security interest is nonsense.
Yes, Napoleon and Hitler invaded Russia but they had also invaded European nations.
Putin has already undone the nation as Stalin had done before him. Other than
Russia there are 44 countries in Europe. None of those countries fear one
another, but all of them fear Russia because Russia is a Europe-hating
aggressor nation that has been under the control of maniacs since 1917. The Reason for the hatred is that Russia’s leadership hates
the fact that European nations are not authoritarian dictatorships thus offer a
humane, civilized contrast to what Russia has been since since the communist revolution—a totalitarian society.
Unlike
Putin Russia, Europeans are not the war-loving people they once were. And
today, unlike Russia’s husk people, they are enjoying life too much to want to
go to war with one of the world most powerful and brutal military machine
(known to shoot down passenger planes just for the fun of it). That’s all
Russia is, a military based. Why does Russia, territorially the largest nation
in the world, have an economy smaller than Italy? Because the Russians are lobotomized
Morlocks who work in armament factories. Russia's wealth comes from nature in the
form of diamonds, gold, oil, gas, and trees, not from the ingenuity and
creativity of the Russian people because they have never been allowed to thrive.
They
engage in no innovative intellectual, technological, artistic, and cultural
creativity. Their Olympic Games athletes are hormonal cyborgs. JudeoMarxism was
scalpel used to perform an ideological lobotomy on the Russian people and under
thug Czar Putin, the nation never recovered to its former glory days of the 19th
century. Yes, it was a time with oppressive czars but loads of artistic and
intellectual creativity. Now there is just Czar Putin without the creativity.
There were gulags under Stalin; now the entire country is a gulag and the Russian
people are mindless slaves to the super-wealthy oligarchs who spend stolen money on a hedonistic lifestyle and luxury yachts:
“France
seizes yacht linked to Russian oligarch at Mediterranean port”
https://www.theguardian.com/world/2022/mar/03/germany-seizes-russian-billionaire-alisher-usmanovs-600m-superyacht-report
It’s
weird that Russia became communist to cleanse the country of exploitative czarist
pigs who kept Russians poor. But communism kept the people just as poor but
also made them boring. So it was overthrown and now the czar is back and
exploitative capitalism is keeping Russians poor. What was prevented was to allow
the talents of the Russian people to flourish. Decadent ostentatious displays of
wealth are always disgusting but at least American movie actors (movie stars
are extinct) and entrepreneurs earn their wealth rather than just appropriate
from the people as do Vladimir Makarov Putin’s cronies. Really, Russia has
become a mafia nation with Czar Putin playing the part of godfather. France has
also been confiscating oligarch’s palaces and bank accounts in France. Go
France!
I
lived in Europe for eight years and never came across anything made Russia,
yeah a lot of stuff is made in China because China might be a totalitarian
nightmare but it produce quality stuff because its people
are all about quality in the sense of quality in Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance: An Inquiry into Values
by Robert M. Pirsig. In fact, I’m writing on a Lenovo computer that I bought 9
years ago for about $300. I will never buy another Chinese computer, or anything else made in China if possible, again because China is a Marxist bully run by communist thugs who threaten the small nations of the Pacific Rim. I can't boycott made in Russia stuff because there
is nothing to buy from Russia. The only quality in Russia is the military,
which has been performing like a Lada in Ukraine but is still a doomsday machine. (The
world is truly depressingly weird, Greta.
You and your generation deserved better.) Evil, ignorant, selfish adults have failed all of you.
The
quality of life is better in Brazil as long as you don’t get kidnapped. Like
Rocket Man Kim Jong-un,
the only way for Vladimir
Makarov Putin can get attention is by grabbing his crotch and threatening to nuke
civilized societies and to invade a small nations, though in the case of
Ukraine one with friends. Russia has no friends. China, North Korea, Iran, and Syria
are not friends and have no friends because hating doesn’t win friends. Whereas Ukraine’s
president Volodymyr Zelenskyy is seen as a hero in his country and on the world
stage, Vladimir Makarov Putin is seen as a demented murderous thug because that is what
he is. He is a Russian version of Al Capone, a gangster, nothing more. People
love comedians and hate gangsters.
What about America?
A
question that causes nausea in most Americans. America’s rapid decline is visible
in its recent presidents, men who are pathetic laughingstocks. When listening to
FDR one realizes that the country has declined 100%. We were unable to deal
Covid-19 in a unified, dignified manner. The country collapsed like a decadent house
of cards. China knew it would. Putin probably thought America would be too decadent to care about Ukraine. But old man Biden cared and that's all it took to open the cornucopia of us support. The truth is that Putin's invasion of Ukraine is
both a bloody land-grab and a live-fire military exercise. He overlooked the
fact that the civilized world hates bullies, or more likely he didn't care thinking he was invincible. That is why there are no
warmongering leaders in Western Europe. Adolf Putin is a warmonger cut from the
same cloth as Hitler. After Hitler and Mussolini Europe was done with
warmongering leaders. Europeans only want peace, affluence, and a healthy
environment. They have been working hard to bring about all three, whereas Putin
is a destroyer of all three. Russian culture has the appeal of a dollar store.
American Decadence Is a Tragedy
Because
of its decadence America no longer serves as the great hope that the civilized
world depended upon. And Americans couldn’t care less as long as they can buy
their gas cheap and buy their cheap made-in-China stuff. If China was to
slaughter a half million Taiwanese, which it wants to do and take the island,
America couldn’t go to war with China. It lost to China during the Korean War
when America was at its peak. Mao deployed around 250,000 Chinese “volunteers”
fighting as the People's Volunteer (LOL) Army. American soldiers were the best
but ran out of bullets fighting endless Chinese husks. Besides, war with China
would mean Americans could no longer buy cheap made-in-China stuff—or would it?
They would rather let the Chinese Godzilla swallow Taiwan.
China cannot be defeated conventionally
but could be defeated easily and bloodlessly economically, but that would require American
corporations making nothing in China and American consumers buying nothing made
in China. But in Carlson’s terms not being able to buy cheap made-in-China
stuff would be a tragedy on the scale of the Holocaust. Americans have become
China’s junkies thus unable to make even a bloodless sacrifice. Russia also could not be defeated by
America if such a war meant invading Russia. Napoleon failed and Hitler failed.
Russia is having difficulty fighting the Ukrainians because Ukrainians are fighting
for their homeland and the soil of their ancestors. The way to confront the
Russians without sending troops is to isolate Russia from the civilized world
so its only so-called friends would be Syria, China, North Korea, and Iran. (Yuck!
That totalitarian cult is as appealing as collection of drug cartels and
pedophiles.) No manufacturing in Russia, no trade of manufactured goods, no Russians
allowed to enter the U.S. or European countries, and Russians already there who
leave those countries would not be allowed to return.
The additional bonus would
be no Russia crime organizations like the Red Mafia. Yeah, yeah, what about the
Italian Mafia? Okay, but with the Italian Mafia come Italians and their
wonderful culture—handsome men, beautiful women, food that is impossible to
live without, a culture that brings a smile to one face. Americans flock to
little Italys avoid Little Odessas having watched Eastern Promises, The Equalizer and Taken 3,
or played Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2.
The thing about the Italians in The
Godfather is that even the bad guys have class. Italians have class—look at
Dean Martin and Frank Sinatra, Tony
Bennett, and endless other classy Italians. Russian? A no-class culture of thugs. What else comes to mind? The Bolshoi Ballet? An orphan from a more civilized time. The state of the Russian state can be seen in the face of its leader. No class, dull and soulless. Uncivilized nations should be unwelcome among civilized
nations. Russia is listed as an European nation. It isn’t. It once was, but no
longer. It’s a rogue nation like North Korea. It's not even a nation but an criminal organization run by oligarchs.
The IKEA
Episode
Sweden
developed some moral backbone and told its companies not to do business with
Russia. In good old WWII fashion IKEA balked at doing so. Greed before
morality was its motto. But the Swedish government told IKEA tough shit. Do as
you are told. So wimpy IKEA closed the manufacturing plant and put the
employees out of work, but said it would continue to pay them. What? The goal
is to put them out of work so the Russian government would have to pay them
unemployment—not to put them on an extended vacation while Russian soldiers slaughter Ukrainian men, women, and children! Besides, the hands of all Russians
are dirty, bloody really, unless they rebel against the evil doing of their
evil president.
During the Vietnam War when America was engaged in doing evil
under the auspices of evil politicians (only two senators, Wayne Morse (D-OR)
and Ernest Gruening (D-AK) had the moral backbone to vote against going to war), young people took to the streets and protested. Protesting evil LBJ’s Vietnam War, students at Kent States were shot down by members of the National
Guard. That is how to absolve oneself of
the evil doings of one’s nation. And there were thousands young protesters during the Vietnam War. Of
course, though evil, America was not a totalitarian society in which presidents
engaged in assassinations of critics.
America: no longer “a shining city
upon a hill”
That was hardly be the case when Americans (in name only) were setting fires to American cities. Let’s
face, America was never perfect, often not even close. Still, America was the
best hope for the civilized world because only it possessed the power that could
protect that world from dictatorial thugs like Putin. But that power for good was
squandered by evil men such as LBJ and Bush Jr. and the politicians who did
their bidding. The eyes of people from all over the world have been on America,
and what they have witnessed is its rapid state of decay, a country in which $5 a
gallon of gas is considered a tragedy.
The
streets are lined with drug addicts, homeless, and the insane as recently noted
by Dave Chappelle, who asked a question that can apply to America as a whole: “What
the f—k happened to this place?” Corporations serve greed and evil ideologies.
Politicians have become husks, deluded, self-serving, corrupt, and decadent.
The old decent America still exist—mostly in small towns outside of big sin cities
like L.A., Chicago, San Francisco, Portland, and New York—as it always has. Its
goodness is consider antiquated. Who are the old decent Americans? They are the
men and women devoted to family and work, who want to be good, though often
fall sort because they are human. Still, they prefer to seek goodness and reject evil. They want to be the kind of people others can depend on.
They
are farmers, fishermen, teachers, doctors and nurses, cops, soldiers,
scientists, and teachers. They are good neighbors and believe it’s better to be
a poor Good Samaritan than rich, powerful, and evil. I believe this because
I’ve known these people—all of them as family, friends, fellow workers, and
acquaintances. Some were foolish or misguided but none of the people close to
me were evil, and some were perfect in their goodness and willingness to suffer
and sacrifice for others. Unfortunately, the power and influence of common
people is limited, and being law-abiding they have been easily tricked and deceived,
thus betrayed, exploited, and manipulated by evil men.
The Impossible Task before You,
Greta.
You’ve
already gotten a lot of blowback to your ideas. So have I. That’s because
people prefer a beautiful lie to an ugly truth—usually about their behavior. Charles
Darwin got blowback because of his theory of evolution. But he was devoted to
finding the truth. Personally I find his truth beautiful because I prefer my origin to be all creatures great and small, male and female to a deity (Yahweh) that embodies pure aggressive masculinity and who declared war on the world seeking global conquest and dominance over all of humanity. Darwin said in a letter that “I work from a sort of instinct to
try to make out the truth” (Charles
Darwin by Cyril Aydon 208). His pursuit of truth is what made him different
from most men who preferred a self-aggrandizing lie that the purpose of the entire Universe (actually an ugly). Darwin did not believe the animal origin of humans was an ugly truth. That his
ancestor was an “ouran-outang” quite pleased him (Aydon 128). He loved plants and animals as much as he loved people. The reasons why should be obvious. The greatest enemies of humans are humans.
Your
greatest enemy is masculinity that doesn’t want to be told what to do
especially by a girl. What you want is inconsistent with what political systems
and corporations run by men want. They want more wealth and more power, not
less. In a way, what you are asking is similar to asking drug cartels not to
sell drugs. Such men don’t care about creating a better world or about future
generations. They care only about wealth and power. Their philosophy is carpe
diem, seize the day by the throat if necessary as long as you get what you want.
Then
you have those billions of people who live in an alternate reality—invented but
no less real to them. Take JudeoChristians as an example. Why would they care
about the environment and the old Earthly ways of living when Apostle Paul—the most
influential hater of nature—tells them every Sunday that the
Rapture will occur any day now with all Christians being taken into the clouds
to be with Jesus and his angels? You might recall that Paul says that the “earthly
tent” isn’t worth saving because it is evil. That Earthly tent is the nature
that Darwin loved. How can we believe Paul? He tells us that he got the information
straight from the horse’s mouth—the resurrected Jesus when the he paid him
a visit. Expect all Christians to ignore your warnings because they believe
every word Paul says in his letters—written 2000 years ago! So they must be true. Just like the creation of life story in the book of Genesis must be true because it was written 2,600 years ago! In fact, Catholicism
is an institution founded on Paul’s words, the words of Jesus who was, however, interested only in inspiring a spiritual kingdom in the here and now. But once an organization has power, it wants to keep it. There is no way it's going to say, "We got it wrong. Time to take the red pill and wake up to the truth."
If
you are wondering what any of this has to do with your concerns about climate
change, it’s this. The focus of religious believers is not on their Earthly existence but
postmortem existence. That is the case not only for Christians but also
Muslims, Buddhists, Hindus and others representing most of the world’s population.
Thus, global warming isn't an important issue to them. It might even be good because whatever happens is part of God’s plan. If the world blows up tomorrow, it was God's plan thus good. America's Armageddonites would like to see
the end of the world come sooner rather than later. Thus, your appeals to
preserve the world for future generations are meaningless to them.
This
is also true for the Islamic ideology. The central focus of the Quran is the
afterlife that offers, like Christianity, two destinations: paradise and a fiery
Hell. Wikipedia says, “Among the different terms and phrases
mentioned above that refer to hell in the Quran, Al-nar (the fire) is used 125
times, jahannam 77 times, jaheem (blazing flames) 26 times, (23 times by
another count)" ("Jahannam"). Paradise is referenced approximately 147
times. Clearly, Muslims would be more concerned about the afterlife than about
global warming in this life, which most likely would not seriously affect them.
The
same is essentially true for Buddhism and Hinduism and their concern with
reincarnation or the transmigration of souls. My point is that these religious
ideologies are impervious to worldly concerns unrelated to the afterlife.
Another
problem is the us-versus-nature of the dominant Abrahamic religious ideologies.
Judaism is the originator of the us-versus-them religious ideology. The "us" were the
Hebrews and "them" were the pagans. As enemies of God pagans counted for so
little that they could be cleansed from the Earth. JudeoChristianity adopted
the same mindset toward not only pagans but also Jews and later Muslims or any
religion that wasn’t Christian. JudeoIslam, which adopted the Old Testament
ideology, continued the say us-versus-them way of thinking. And Marxism was the
secular version of the us-versus-them ideology. Important here is that the “them”
are not a concern for the “us,” yet for your mission to work requires
altruistic concern for all of humanity—especially future generations. That
concern isn’t present in cultures that live according to an us-versus-them ideology.
All such ideologies claim to be ideology motivated by love but their dominant
theme is hatred.
You
also appealed to the United Nations. In fact, very few nations of the world are
united. Here the problem is nationalism. Nations are first and foremost
concerned about their own people. Again the us-versus-them mindset is present.
Putin and his Russian sycophants are not concerned about the Ukrainians, whom
they consider to be “them,” who are nothing more than an abstraction. Your
appeal to reduce carbon emissions is based on Good Samaritan altruism. The
ideologies just mentioned are essentially “all about us” selfish ideologies.
You
can see why it’s a sad, sad world. Life is a tragic affair because being made
of flesh and blood all creatures are susceptible to physical disease and injury.
Humans and some animals suffer mentally. Death is the end of life for all
living creatures, and death already makes life a tragic affair. But what makes the world a truly sad places
are the evil and stupid men who cause unnecessary suffering or fail to prevent
preventable suffering thus add to the tragedy of life. There are good men and
good women like yourself, but the evil of evil men often seems overwhelming.
And their evil adds unnecessary suffering and sadness to the suffering and
sadness that comes naturally to humans.
So,
what is the solution, Greta? I don’t know. I would say just keep on promoting
what you think must be done to improve the environment for everyone (including
nature’s creatures) today and for future generations. You possess moral and
practical intelligence, more so than the men you are trying to influence, men
who are deficient in both. Today the great concern is the threat of artificial
intelligence. You and I know that the greatest threat human existence is not
artificial intelligence but is one that has been with humans their entire history—masculine intelligence made defective by powerful irrational instincts, desires, and
emotions. Human reason is like Saint Anthony affected by demons—not supernatural
demons but the demons of irrationality. Unfortunately, we don’t have a wise artificial
intelligence like Gort in the movie The
Day the Earth Stood Still to get selfish, indifferent men to do what is
right. For you, the issue isn’t whether you will win in the end but your choice to live
your life as a Good Samaritan rather than like the men who beat and robbed him.
You don’t want just stand by like the 10 bystanders on the train did nothing
while a woman was being raped. It is a sad, sad world, but people like you make
it a little brighter.
