The USA Age of Hatred — I
We are a Country Divided. This leaves us, AND the rest of the World, at peril.
In the story “Two Hungry Wolves,” this author discusses the way many of us digest the reality in front of us through the idea that each of us has two wolves: one is evil, and one is good; every day, they fight ferociously. The moral of the story is — the one that survives is the one we feed.
As a country, we are experiencing a detachment from reality, a psychotic episode. The wolf we are feeding is the one that hates. Our dilutions and hallucinations of internal power have disconnected us from the reality of our Nation, what our Nation stands for, and the world.
Presidents do what they can, but Congress, the mainstay of the people, has lost its way.
When Congress works for the people, ideas and policies matter, and Congress has a basis for cooperation.
When the people matter less than dominating the opposite aisle, the government becomes dysfunctional — the madness of many.
This is so because, as a whole, Congress has lost sight of reality. Reality:
- America’s Political Chasm.
- The Rape of Our Nation Part I
- The Rape of Our Nation Part II
- The Rape of Our Nation Part III
- The 2023 Recession (we may still see one)
- People Live in Mental Silos
- Is Bipartisan Policy Making a Miracle?
- The USA Government — The Definition of Insanity
- Are we in a Partisan War?
- Proof Solid Our Politicians Are Lost
- Why Do You Care Who is in Government?
We have become so self-righteous we believe the world can wait.
The reality is that China is waiting for us to self-destruct to become the owners of the seas.
One Old and Known Imperative:
“He who Owns the Sea Owns the World.”
Most volume trade is done by sea. Remember how long it took for our economy to come up to speed after the COVID shutdown? Why do you think WE can impose rules on RUSSIA?
Elon Musk’s idea of reusable rockets will revolutionize trade eventually. Meanwhile, ships and ship routes are still king in trade.
We have been owners of the Sea since the end of WWII. That is being challenged by China today.
So far, owning the seas and the progressive governments we have elected has cost us 34 TRILLION dollars. Back in Feb 2022, our debt was at 30 Trillion. A laid-down stack of $1,000 bills covered three-quarters of the country. Today, we can lay it down, and it would cover the entire country from New York to California. We’ve added about $4 Trillion in one year.
AS A NATION, WE CAN NOT LIVE ON WHAT WE MAKE IN TAXES, THE GOVERNMENT SPENDS TOO MUCH !!!
In traditional Chinese mythology, known as the “Middle Kingdom,” they believe they are the center of the world. They were for long stretches in history. When the Mongols invaded China, with time, they were “assimilated.” Chinese history and their “way of being” are that strong and patient.
Today, we get China wrong. In the last 30 years, China has grown its economy to become the manufacturer of the world. all this time, we believed that to do that, China would have to open itself for democracy; we were wrong. China today is the second-largest economy in the world and has a middle class with money to spend, all allowed by and in control of the government’s totalitarianism.
One thing the Chinese have that we don’t is “Patience.”
Their history gives them that. They have been around for 4,000 years (some say 6,000), and they know they will be around a lot longer. (Meanwhile, we have NONE).
The only branch of government that can save the day if that happens is the President, The Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces. However, at some point, he will need Congress’s cooperation to get things done.
How Did We Get to Open Hate?
A New Age was born at Trump’s inauguration as President (January 2017). Without him doing anything except offering a new perspective, he became President, and there was a riot at his inauguration. Some people were crying, others were angry, the crowd was alive with Hate!
According to Obama, Trump did not have a chance. The crowds that ‘loved him’ believed… There was a meeting at the White House…things were prepared. All we know is from a self-addressed letter from Susan Rice to herself as she left her office the morning of Trump’s inauguration (January 20, 2017).
Not happy that our country had a peaceful and orderly change of government but mad that, per our Constitution, the Wrong “label” of government had been elected. Nothing else could have excited that crowd to such a parody.
The Obama plan of a 100-year possession of power had been thwarted.
At the time, people were confused. What had happened? The man had done nothing yet. Little did the people know a minefield of scandals-to-be was left behind. All done “by the book.”
What had happened is everybody thought Trump never had a chance to win. Obama, in 2011, roasted Trump at one “Correspondent White House Dinners” to celebrate his absolute grip on power (his reelection was assured). His eight years had gone so flawlessly; he had devised a plan for passing his reign to Hillary Clinton. Everybody believed this was to be so.
Out of their shock! They did not appreciate that we had a peaceful change of government. That crowd set the tone for the things that happened afterward and are happening today.
I know that changing a society that has suffered from 130+ years of manipulation by consecutive “progressive governments” will not happen with the change of one government. The slow boil of the frog would suddenly stop and the body of the progressive society had a radical allergic reaction.
Typically, the frog jumps out of the boiling pot at some point BUT, it is too late; it dies. As opposed to the frog, we, the majority WE, can jump out now and allow the Nation to survive.
Trump’s government went through the most tumultuous times ever during his presidency. It was obvious to any observer that the hate-mongers were not going to let him govern. Every single day, subterfuges were created to disturb the rhythm of government. A civil war of words and accusations was created…A lot of it was instigated by the press through the propaganda. Families were ripped apart by who they decided to believe.
The People were segregated by the “scandals.” The calumnies peaked with a trial for the President’s impeachment. The culmination of 4 years of daily harassment was a total insult to the Nation, regardless of its worldwide reputation.
Two clear camps of hate came out of the closets and publicly fought a war of words. The entire 4th branch of government was against the president.
Hate Spreads Like Wild Fire on the internet.
