AMERICAN CULTURE
Americans have a wonderful culture. They really do believe in freedom. They believe in live and let live. They believe in self-reliance. They believe in being friendly and helpful to their neighbors. Generally speaking, they are good-hearted and honest. Americans are optimistic. This culture comes down from the Founding Fathers, George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin, and the rest. It is said that George Washington is “first in war, first in peace, and first in the hearts of his countrymen”.
But Americans fail to realize that there are other nations and groups which do not share these values.
CHINESE CULTURE
The Chinese, and particularly the Chinese leadership, believe that the Chinese are superior to others, and that the Chinese are destined to rule the world, as they should. They are ruthless and determined. Slaughtering vast masses of people, in war or otherwise, including their own people, is not a problem. It only matters that the Chinese emerge victorious and in control. This is in the tradition of Mao Zedong (Mao Tse-tung), who slaughtered tens of millions of his own people. His most famous saying is: “Political power grows out of the barrel of a gun.”.
RUSSIAN CULTURE
The Russians follow the example of Stalin, who also slaughtered tens of millions of his own people. Stalin’s culture is wonderfully portrayed by Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn in his great book, “The Gulag Archipelago”. Some excerpts are at http://www.goodreads.com/work/quotes/2944012-1918-1956.
Stalin’s culture is also portrayed in Robert Conquest’s book, “The Great Terror”. An article by Robert Conquest about his book, written in 2008, 40 years after its first publication, is at http://www.hoover.org/research/great-terror-40
Like the Chinese, the Russians are intent on dominating the world. Both the Chinese and the Russians are working very hard right now to build up their military strength to accomplish that purpose.
SUPER RICH CULTURE
The Super Rich who control America and the West also do not share the values of American culture. Quite the opposite. They share the values of the Chinese and the Russians. They are intent on world domination. They care nothing if millions or tens or hundreds of millions are killed in the wars which they cause. They are machine-like, methodical, and ruthless in pursuing their goals. The population to them is like a herd of cattle. It might suit their purposes to breed more of them, or it might suit them to reduce or eliminate the herd.
AMERICANS IN THE SHARK TANK
Thus there are three great power centers in the world: China, Russia, and the Anglo-American Conspiracy of the Super Rich. Each wants to rule the world. Each is evil and ruthless far beyond the imagination of the typical cheerful, good-hearted, honest, and trusting American.
We live in a world of bloodthirsty cutthroats. The real culture of the world in which we live is a culture of ruthless power.
Americans trying to live in this world of cold brutality are naïve beyond belief. It’s like throwing babies into a shark tank. What chance do they have? It’s a pitiful sight!
