China and Russia are no better than the U.S. That they have a self interest... that aligns them in opposition to the flagrant insanity apparent in D.C., now... which is exactly the same as that dominating every other major capitol... does not mean they are any less insane or any less corrupt ? American "exceptionalism"... used to exist... because we WEREN'T as corrupt as others... That LEGACY was why the dollar worked as the reserve currency.... because American's could be trusted to do the right thing... and not act only out of pure self interest... but within their moral responsibility. The remnants of the institutions built on that base... continue to function in the expectation that there will be real leadership... even when there is not. The design was robust enough... that the systems themselves would preserve and express some of that moral authority... as it was woven into the fabric of them at founding... It takes... extremes... to violate the systems norms... to the point of forcing the systems to fail by having gutted them of all moral legitimacy... but, that is about where we are now... And, that we see now... is, in fact a near duplicate of "the Chinese system" that Biden is inflicting on us... in lieu of legitimacy... So, fuck all of them... "Globalism"... is a process of leveling... to ensure an equal opportunity system of corruption controls the world... declaring all "brands" of corruption to be equally as legitimate... for those very few... and everyone else is just fucked... A core issue is... the institutionalization of the corruption... its tacit acceptance... and the total lack of integrity or moral courage in ANY world leader today... They are, to a man.... incapable... incompetent... corrupt cowards... acting in self interest... as that is what a lack of accountability ALWAYS produces in faux leaders. In theory, in the U.S., "fixing it" only takes one election... which, of course, is why the elections have been corrupted... in order to prevent them being used in "fixing it" ? So, EXACTLY THE SAME as in Russia and China in that regard, today... the only differences being... style, personality, dementia... only with an unquestioned and publicly asserted level of control in Russia and China... and there being enough residual gonad material in the U.S. that... on a Christmas call, you can dupe Brandon into saying "I agree, Let's Go Brandon"... and not be murdered for it...
