We are living in a reductionist endgame scenario that some bright boys must have thought up for us. After the collapse of the Soviet Union the brain trusts that advise Wall Street and the US government decided that they already controlled enough of the military and monetary power on the planet to take over everything. And by everything, I mean total control of the human population of this planet.
They bought out the Chinese by turning their country into almost the entire manufacturing base for the United States. And they control everything else by distributing or withholding credit needed for the other countries to survive in the 21st century environment. Sure, places like Afghanistan and Iraq acted up a little twenty years ago. But once their infrastructure was taken out by the US Air Force the resistance they could muster was very limited. And we then made a point of inviting people from these countries to immigrate to the United States and Europe just to show their brethren back home that it was better to join us than fight us. And the biggest success of the endgame scenario was their reducing much of rust belt America into a dead zone with no jobs and no hope. They knew that if they could break the middle class, they’d be able to steamroll the rest of the world without much of a fight.
Lately Eastern Europe; Poland, Hungary, the Czech Republic and especially Russia have resisted the culture war that goes along with the globalist endgame. Shockingly these places have refused to embrace the mandatory LGBTQ indoctrination. It should be fairly interesting to see if these places along with China hold the line on refusing this nihilistic behavior. I find it a fairly hopeful sign that there are still some places even in Western culture that haven’t been cowed by the globalists into sacrificing their families and children in order to qualify for first class berths on the Titanic. Maybe these clear-eyed places will be able to show the rest of the West that the emperor has no clothes.
But let’s assume that they fail. Let’s even assume that China eventually bends the knee to Washington and joins the globalist bandwagon. The logical endpoint is a world where climate policy eliminates fossil fuels, curtails human reproduction to a one child per family quota and government institutes almost total control of political speech over everyone on this planet.
It’s not that hard to imagine what this kind of system would look like. The rudiments of it are already on display right now all around you. The Green New Deal and tech companies are already instituting large chunks of it and the rest will be rolled out once the pesky MAGA people are rounded up and put through an indoctrination camp or two. And with everybody on board around the world the people in charge are probably thinking there won’t be any barbarians to invade and muck things up in a century or two.
But they’re wrong. What they don’t understand is that humans aren’t uniform. You can corral 99% of them and through fear and routine get them to toe the line. But somewhere out there is a Napoleon or a Caesar. Someone with dreams grandiose enough that he’ll knock over the apple cart because he doesn’t like apples. Now this is cold comfort. None of this will guarantee that the global American empire will implode in time to warm my heart. In fact, I sort of doubt it will happen in my lifetime. But at least I don’t have to despair for the whole of humanity. I’ve always hated reading dystopian stories like 1984 and Brave New World. The anthill uniformity of these societies is so anti-human that it repels me viscerally. And that’s what I resent so much about things like the nonsensical energy policy like battery powered cars recharged from a grid powered by fossil fuels. The patent illogic insults my intelligence. It’s like watching a scene out of Idiocracy. It’s just that annoying.
I like to think that in a century or so, someone will rise up and take control of one of the provinces and provide such a better deal to a few of the provincial governors that they declare him emperor (or let’s say first citizen) and after sacking Martha’s Vineyard and the Napa Valley he’ll shut down the Federal Reserve and send the Deep State home without jobs. I don’t know if this makes sense to any of you but I felt like expressing my hope for the future. Whatever the outcome of any particular political struggle I just want to convince myself that I don’t believe in a world where Joe Biden is the template for the future.
