Morg, I completely understand your rant and I feel frustration as well. However, I am NOT stupid. I will continue to stand for the US because that is my own roots and I can still see much good in people I personally know. DC is way too big and Eisenhower was wise to warn against the "Military Industrial Complex", to which I would also add Big Pharma and AI as well. I fully understand the BRICS nations decision to try to forge a new path. Greed holds too much sway in the USA. ( I am not a part of that, not even remotely!!) This does not say that Russia, China, Brazil, India and others who join them, have some great bond of wisdom. The history of Communism alone in Russia, China, Cambodia, Vietnam is a staggering line of awful force and death, which flattens people and their simple hopes. Stalin, Lenin, Mao, Pol Pot, not nice individuals. New reflections of Mussolini and Hitler, writ in different culture, same evil message. Most people in those nations are simply trying to survive. Most of the USA is simply people doing the same, working to keep the basics afloat.

While I am hardly a big-shot or a person of great accomplishment, I see value in humble people walking the quiet road of faith in God. Europe is ill, USA is ill...but so are Russia, China and all other nations. God is not ill. All the nations of the world have their strengths and weaknesses and God will work with those who will sit down and listen to Him and humble themselves to listen His wise counsel. I have battled discouragement and deep depression for years, simply overwhelmed by the hardness of life as a deeply sensitive soul. I write because I want to at least pass on some of the hard lesssons I have learned in 71 years, essentially "what not to do." Boomers are a unique generation but so are each previous and succeeding generation. My parent's generation survived the Great Depression and WW2. Mine was thrust into the social and political chaos of the 1960s and the decade in which my brother was drafted at age 23 and sent to Vietnam, where he was killed within 6 months, August 1968 , four days after he turned 24. I struggle with the sadness still, to some degree... and yet I keep going, because there is something left to do. Gen X, Millenials, Gen Z, all have something to offer, even if different circumstances. You have a very good mind, Morg. I hope you find hope in your life, to help and to serve and to illuminate with your own life experience. Look UP! You are needed in this world.

Blessings to you, WEW

I did not know that the undead had a heart. I wish we could find you that Japanese girl!!

Thank you. I hope she is doing well, it has been nearly 40 years since I last saw her.

Just because white men aren't stupid enough to join the military, doesn't mean they won't fight if we are invaded.

Or maybe, they, like me, would wave the Bear and Dragon towards the welfare state that is DC.

Morg, Geopolitics aside, such a sweet note to Junko. I know the feeling and it touched me deeply. I hope she reads it, somehow, someday, somewhere. I

Thank you, me too. I wondered if any of you would read it. 👍🏻

The archipelago of globohomo hives is not the West, it's the West's cancer. They're not westerners; they've forsaken that heritage. They're self-styled "cosmopolitans," a.k.a. retards.

Nobody's on their side. They're not even on their own side. I'm on the side of the nascent oncologists. Down with the tumors.

If the "Axis of Evil" can get rid of them, fair enough. But I don't welcome their dominance afterward. This is our land and neither they nor the retards can have it.

A balance of power would be best for all. I don't wish for a replacement for the GAE as global hegemon. It never works out well for the world.

Personally I'm on France's side, which is why I want NATO troops out of there, that said I don't have much faith in BRICS. They seem to be floundering also, as South Africa & Brazil fall apart, and I'm not sure China can maintain their current growth for much longer, given their demographic problems. Not to mention if the sea-lanes are no longer occupied by the US, I doubt that China can keep the lights on.

That said, the Empire collapses maybe we can start to rebuild our countries without Imperial interference. Russia, China & Iran are not allies of anyone but their own leaders. I can't see them triumphing, but nor can I see the US triumphing.

In my view what is likely to happen is that Russia & China will collapse due to their demographic problems (and China's MASSIVE debt problem), Iran will probably split even as the US will break down at the current rate things are going. As to what will be the new reserve currency not sure, I don't think it'll be the Yuan, the Dollar or the Euro for that matter, my only hope is that when these countries fall apart the rest of us are given breathing room, can rebuild ourselves and can make something of ourselves. Maybe there'll be regional reserve currencies; East Africa with the Kenyan Shilling, Western Europe with the Franc, Latin America with the Argentinian Pesos, Asia with the Yen or the Vietnamese Dong, and so on.

Hope you don't mind the disagreement here on the path which Russia & China & Brics are on, I just don't see them or the US lasting much longer.

Your sweet note to Junko balanced out the black pill of the article. Nothing like sweet memories from years past. Good one today.

Thank you, when I think of Japan I always think of her and wonder where she is and what she is doing now.

Makes sense, the undead are intrinsically evil after all, amirite?
