Reading the back pages of alternative news sites about all the litany of lies, criminal murders, and flagrant violations of any and all laws on earthy by the US will make anyone feel depressed.
Watching the mediocre monstrosities with egos which exponentially dwarf their intelligence that pass for ‘viable candidates’ for the 2016 US presidential race make me truly fear for my safety and future, and that of my family.
Everything in the US today has become a sick joke, a cruel lie-from the economy to the illegal wars, to the glossed-up unemployment report; everything has been cynically exploited by the psychopathic oligarchies that control this troubled and broken land of contradictions too numerous to notice.
Everything in the US has been turned into a business; the economy, health, education, war, religion, justice, even poverty has been perverted and turned into a money-making enterprises. Any human vice and misery in existence has been fully and flagrantly commercialized within the US for the gain of the one-percent.
The ruling oligarchy in the US is only concerned about the average citizen to the extent that they can be used and exploited for work and profit-and of course, votes every four years. But that’s it. The oligarchy has enacted more and more devious and stealthy ways to con and separate the people below them from whatever money and valuable possessions they may possess. In the eyes of the oligarchy, the lowly citizen owns nothing; they, and everything they own is the property of the oligarchy, like it or not.
There is no decency nor scruples left within the US body politic today. Nothing is sacred. There are no truths or principles anymore that transcend self-interest--just deceit, greed, and selfishness.
There is nothing truly real, as well. What passes for authenticity in the US today is simply an ‘idea’ of something. No longer does the US represent true democracy or freedom, but the ‘idea’ of them. People are manipulated to only see what the ruling oligarchy wants them to see. Everything is based on perceptions, because the reality is too disgusting and sad.
It’s now all about perception, themes, and ideas--not reality. Reality is a fucking downer; it keeps people from mindlessly spending money, from being distracted by foolish and banal TV and other idiotic spectacles.
Coming across any mention of the so-called cherished US principles and their representations and symbols in books, museums, classrooms, and objects strewn around parks and other places throughout the country is like walking through some ancient Greek or Roman ruin and seeing statues with missing appendages, faint letters etched into broken and weathered columns and imposing archways which all hearken back to some distant, glorious past, but not understanding what it all says or means anymore.
All these admirable and lofty US principles upon which the US was supposedly founded are just worn and dusty artifacts and broken, moldy statues. They’re just outdated antiques from another epoch to look back on and admire, but which no longer represent the real state of things.
How does one reconcile the lofty mandates of the US Constitution and the Bill of Rights with mass surveillance, indefinite detention, torture, bigotry, endless war, regime changes, kidnapping, assassination, malice towards others, secret trials and evidence; all those things which the founding fathers repudiated and fought against, and which are being fervently engaged in by the US ruling oligarhy today?
The US today is worse than Nazi Germany and the British Empire at its most arrogant stages. It has absorbed the evil influence and mannerisms of both, and created an ideological toxic soup that’s worse than anything that has gone before it.
No other country in history has had the venomous and painful reach and influence that the US has. No other country in history has consigned more people to death, poverty, and misery that the US has to this point.
These words are harsh, but they are true.
The US soul is not corrupt, because the US has no soul. It might’ve as well sold it to the devil long ago.
But what are we to expect from a country born out of colonialism, gross land theft and genocide? To expect anything true, normal, decent and consistent from its past and present predations is pure delusion; it is not possible.
The US was founded by wealthy elites for the benefit of the wealthy elites, upon the broken backs of farmers who were suckered into dying and bleeding for the wealthy planters and merchants who benefited the most from that ancient upheaval in 1776. From the very beginning of this nation the wealthy controlled society by promulgating laws that put only their own kind into seats of power and wealth.
It wasn’t until the early 20th century that the masses at the bottom started to demand their own, but by then the wealthy elites and their descendants have been in power for over a century, and dislodging them has been difficult.
Today, their heirs have not only robbed the people they govern, but are robbing the rest of the world with their fraudulent and failed capitalist and neo-liberal economic theories.
The US ruling establishment today is a miserable criminal enterprise. It is the supreme mafia. It forces the weak to pay tribute for ‘protection’ (i.e. NATO), and exploits them to the hilt. Those who refuse this protection and exploitation are harassed, bankrupted, and eventually killed.
The US is an infected, putrid, bleeding sore on the face of the globe. Everything it touches it infects with some sort of disease and pain.
If the world ever sees some semblance of peace and order, it will be despite of, not because of the US.
The US is a disease that must be killed if the world wants to find itself in a better shape in the future.
To the informed and intelligent residents of the US with the courage and enough money to do so, I urge you all to emigrate from this outhouse, as I soon will.
