Trump is a symptom of our epistemic and moral decay : Comments

By Sam Ben-Meir, published 31/7/2024

If this country disowns truth, goodness and beauty by reinstalling Trump into the executive office, it will have disowned the very things that give life its universal meaning and significance.

Perhaps we should be more concerned about the character (psychological profile) and the "religious" affiliations of the character that the Orange Monstrosity has chosen as his potential VP who will automatically become President it the Orange one goes belly up.
This reference provides a very interesting profile: Its subtitle is A Senator From the Unconscious

I don't know what this blokes been smoking.
He claims truth, but I can't see it anywhere.

Number 1. Shut the hell up about democracy.
I don't want to hear that word from Americans anymore.
Right now you've started a coloured revolution in Venezuela, because you couldn't unseat Maduro, with your US National Endowment for Democracy paid shill Maria Machado.

You overthrow the democratically elected government of Ukraine, gotten half a million killed so far and another million so badly injured they'll have problems for life.

What about Georgia, you're trying the exact same thing there.
You'd gladly kill half a million of them too, to open a second front against Russia.

Your foreign policy's suicide.
Not just for you but for your vassal states too.
Note the 'Free Russia' advocacy.
Russia has a nuclear doctrine, your policy is an existential threat that will see the world incinerated.

You get around the planet with your carrot and stick diplomacy.
Your stick is the sanctions to inflict collective punishment on entire nations that resist you.
And your carrot is your fifth column scumbags like Maria Machado telling the whole nation how crap the leadership is when the country is under attack by you.

You do this the whole entire world over.
You've never brought peace anywhere only war and death.

As for democracy itself, that means the people decide.
Democracy isn't under attack if Trump wins you moron.
That's an expression of the people deciding what they want.

"If this country disowns truth, goodness and beauty by reinstalling Trump into the executive office, it will have disowned the very things that give life its universal meaning and significance."

Your country is stuffed either way in my opinion.
So you should really ease up on the Trump Derangement.
That's a symptom of your countries decline too btw.
- Only thing you were actually right about.

You're a disgusting warmongering cancer of a nation, supports and facilitates genocide and terror all across the world.
Can you maybe just disappear quietly without dragging everyone down with you?

$35tln in debt. Bye bye.

oh, and btw - Biden didn't step aside because it was the honourable statesmen-like thing to do, he was pushed.
He was given an ultimatum:
Step aside or face the 25th Amendment.

We don't have states-men in the west, we have yes-men.
Next time you want to talk about truth, maybe you should go and find it first before you reach to others.

We don't have Statesmen in the West. We only have Yes-men?

Really?

I don't think the following could be described as Yes-men Either
in the West or elsewhere:

Abraham Lincoln
Mahatma Gandi
Nelson Mandela
Winston Churchill
Teddy Roosevelt
Margaret Thatcher
Thomas Jefferson
Barack Obama
JFK
Ronald Reagan
Yasser Arafat
Shimon Peres
Eisenhower
Mikhail Gorbachev
Bonaparte
Nelson
Bismarck

To list just a few.

History books are full of worthy Statesmen. Who've made real
changes for their people and country's good. This occurred
because of the individual choices made by these
influential people. People
like Mikhail Gorbachev who wanted to reform the Soviet System
not destroy it like "Vlad the Impaler Putin."
Or Bibi Netanyahu or old Joe Stalin, or Herr Hitler or Mao,
or the aging showman - Donald Trump.

But each to their own.

Gorbachev thought that once the cold war was over they would be accepted. Not so.
The West proclaimed victory and wanted to rule over them.
Which brings us to today.
Putin even wanted to join NATO at one point.

Many of the others on the list are Yes-men too.
Have you heard of the Council on Foreign Relations by chance?

Armchair Critic,

Putin wanted to join NATO?

What with Russian military and political structures being
dominated by anti-Western thinking - just like yours?

And you believe that they were really ready to be a member
of the alliance back in the 1990s?

Russia would have needed to reform and re-structure its
military and political aspects.

Putin wants to revive Russian power. He needs an enemy to
rally national pride against and the US and NATO fill that
need.

I can see from your posts that it is time:
for me to be more selective with whom
I have conversations on this forum.

Cheers.
