Great article. Funny, I was thinking today about how they have made "nationalist" a dirty word in this country. Your argument has given me hope. If we are not nationalists, then what are we? So simple yet so true.
Nationalist has the word "nation" in it and the globe is full of nations. Sovereigns, once sovereign, and no longer sovereign. I suspect the word "nation" will no longer apply, if we let things go as planed by the globalists.
Exceptional piece, truly patriotic to the core. We are too few and diluted with contemporary assimilation intentionally to bestow a more Western European socialism perspectives influencing our culture and heritage backwards and the oppressed communists in the US on work Visa or green cards. Devouring tax dollars meant for employing and empowering the financial challenged Americans devoted to the God given rights to be a contributing asset to society. Hundred of years dilution.
Spreading Democracy was a bribe and the ruling classes of the East played the US like a fool, compliments of the deepest state, generational political families and/or offspring's weakest link de jour.
Is it too late to implement away from what the WEF's Multinational-MultiBillionaire Club had planned for? A technocratic, globalisation technocracy is all that humanity has to look forward to? Surely someone, or a more advanced emotionally stable and empathetic think-tank of multiple billionaires has a counteractive resolution to propose in lieu of such madness.
Congress seems memorized by the whole conspiracy scheme.
If we could get Ms. Roxanne Meadows of the world famous Venus Florida project: *The Venus Project that was founded around 1975 by the world famous and the late, Jacque Fresco & Herself Ms. Meadows.
I would imagine she and Jacque have quite a perspective on the subject.
Hope you find it most helpful to seeking out a more equitable destination. Get to know our purpose well and see how relevant the project really is. They've literally designed and created a better society, ecosystem and civilization over decades. Think of it as an application with the instruction manual for the entire deprogramming & reprogramming the introspectives of our unsustainable socioeconomic systems and implementation of cyber & resource based economics.
Here's a great quoted piece by their principal, Roxanne Meadows from one of her latest appearance at the UN.
"Much of the event was concerned with going to space. The Venus Project works toward solving our problems here on Earth; where all of Earth’s resources would eventually become the common heritage of all the world’s people, eliminating the artificial boundaries that separate us. At that time—when we grow up as a species and attain a more appropriate value system as to how to interact with the environment and one another—we will be able to venture to outer space without bringing our inappropriate and destructive behaviors to other places in the universe."
We have 7 continents. I'll stick with seven. If 7 can't get along even with themselves or with each other,, neither can all of them under a controller Except by force, which I can already feel. So this is just another way to get to global. If none us of own anything blah blah blah; if we're all in the same boat blah blah, there's no one to complain to.
Full-out agree! Growin' up in the good ol' USA (not the new crummy "in-tar-nay-shun" it's rudely become!), we ALL were purdy patriotic -- sure, the "cabal" may've been lurkin' behind the scenes fer over 100 years but as far as we all thought we knew--America wuz GREAT!
THIS wuz the America I loved, land of the free, home of the brave, a nation wurth fightin' FOR:
I'm a huge fan o' the likes of Jimmy Cagney above-here--I've written on my Stack about him, Jimmy Stewart too, Frank Capra, an a lotta the greats that embodied what America was an' still means ta me. An' part of sellin' America the Beautiful as a proud land were tales, both tall an' small (we like our stories!)--includin' but beyond them hist'ry books. An' behind many of those fine tales (ssssh!) were little men with cee-gars, funny fellas who were quiet 'bout their roots fer nearly 70 years but happy ta sculpt an' craft an' orchestrate the entertainment world that showed us the America some've us yet hold dear in hearts and minds. Same kinda folks behind American Musicals an' popular songs (includin' Tin Pan Alley) too.
Most countries "are" the stories they tell, from Helen of Troy ta Romulus & Remus ta St Patrick an' the Snakes-- Fer years the tale I knew wuz that Lady Liberty waved an' America welcomed in the "tihred" & hungry (but not the criminal, the mercenary, an' the grifter!) an' simmered us all in a big ol' warm an' spicy meltin' pot (School House Rock has a song 'bout that!)
Yet today on the "left" (which I left! long-ways- ago) I'm hearin' that America is turrible--the pot warn't spicy enuf--pot wuz "tainted" an' all this is sad ta my ears as this is the country that accepted my own on-the-run fambly 'bout 150 years ago -- my fambly that gratefully, tearfully embraced their new country and "made good" (learned "poifect Anglish," earned their green cards, worked hard, had kids that went ta HaarVord! --even with them quotas! long 'fore they were "reversed" an' then "re-visited"-- an' were never on the dole, always respectable citizens, professionals, etc...) --
So it pains me ta see this welcome wagon lit a'fire by those that don't like the host at the Inn (an' folks like me blamed fer lightin' it too! imagine!) an' that ol' meltin' pot idear DUMPED onta the dry parched Earth ta sizzle out. Tragic it is...
BUT it 't'ain't only the LEFT that is the cause of all this divide-an' conquer malarkey. It's the RIGHT too.
Never thought I'd hear it but word is on the "right" that I don't deserve ta call this country my home.
Yup. Shouldn't hold office nor teach nor ever again be "over-represented" in the whirled of entertainment. Many good "stack" readers an' writers feel this-a'way.
In my humble onion, we gotta fix not only the woke-turd Left but the holier-than-thou Right 'er we're doomed. I hope I'm allowed ta help with the fixin'... I want to, I do.
In that vein, nationalism's a great thing--I'll take the kind that's about shared values (dare I say judeo-christian?--guess that gits ya in hot warter!), shared beliefs no matter whut faith (self-governin' vs majority rules, tolerance, freedom ta worship, equal protection under the law--no carve-outs fer affinity / identity groups, equal protection under the 1st & 2nd yadda yadda) an' I believe that anybuddy that's gonna git that once-holy grail, the green card, needs ta know those values an' express sincere belief in 'em an' knowledge of their new home, its his'try. Is that too radical? Is that... UN-American? I sure hope not--cuz we cain't go on in topsy-turvy town like that salt-an'-pepper ride at the State Fair... eventually there'll be a lot worse than nausea from the tippin'--that's fer sure.
Cameron & Unbekoming--thank ya fer this--it's important an' timely too! Gotta repair both sides, bring back nationalism, an' bring back (as the song sez), "One Nation Under a Groove!" (I'll be first in line ta git groovy!)
I’ve come across dear rest of america in substack comments but never read his stack.
Good interview. I agree that integration/assimilation is essential. My husband’s family came from Mexico in phases. His mother never learned English, but the kids and grandkids were/are completely American. Not all of the grandkids were taught Spanish-my regret-but a few of the great-grandchildren are still being taught the traditional dances. For the most part the old traditions have been lost.
It’s a shame that people think they have to choose whether to keep their culture exactly as it was in the old country or leave behind all aspects of their culture. Respecting the old ways while learning and accepting the new works very well
As always, the situation is not as easy and simple as we would like to have. There are five major mainstream agendas in play.
The historically justified and dominant one is “stand for your country” (which is different from the nation or the state), commonly called patriotism. This was altered after 9/11, when any and every “patriot” could become an unwelcome enemy.
Then there is the supranational agenda which is being activated in times of major crises (depending on who defines the particular situation), like floods, infectious diseases, or - preferably - alien attacks on the Earth. “Alien” meaning not from this world. In such times we become human again and we stop destroying each other, for some time. The intergalactic space invasion has been a very popular theme to present an image of state rulers being so friendly to each other that they single-handedly terminate conflicts and wars right this evening, simply because the aliens won’t give us another chance.
The third agenda is in the form of support (open or silent) for radical groups, which often use historical motifs and appear to be quite appealing to regular folks.
The fourth agenda is based on fingerpointing “the enemy” or “the traitor”, pushing and pulling the mind of the public in a direction desired at a specific time point.
The fifth agenda consists in maintaining a continuous threat “somewhere there” or “it may come here”. A very useful tool which may be used in support of or for the submission of any of the other four agendas.
None of these agendas are based on values, in particular on universal values, or on human values. Amazingly, after about 4,000 years of reading great philosophers and quoting them whenever needed to change the public mind, not a single politician in the history has ever even attempted to compile a priority list of values necessary to ensure continuous wellbeing in this world. Strange, because the state (as a social structure) has it, although in the form of “crime and punishment” catalogs. The so called organized crime has it, as we are often shown in the media. Until recently, the medical community had it (first, do not harm), but it was so inconvenient that it had to be replaced with DNR (do not resuscitate). The financial sector has it, although in the form of top-down duties and allegiance requirements.
But the environment realm (the air which you breathe, the water which you drink, the food which you eat, the natural space in which you should live) is not covered by the “what is most important for our existence and survival” list.
All in all, there are conflicting and ad hoc activated agendas, and an average person who is not interested or does not have time to read in depth about this world may be in a permanent state of surprised suspension of belief and disbelief.
Effectively, we do not have #1, #2 and #3 priorities in this life. The ultimate priorities which - if they were communicated and observed - would ensure the most basic level of security for everyone. Clearly, we (they? who?) don’t care about priorities. We don’t care about wellbeing or security. We don’t care about continuity - which also means our children and our parents. We don’t care about our air, water and food. We don’t care even about our own. All in all, we do not have a purpose in life.
You humans, most of you, subscribe to this policy of an eye for an eye, a life for a life, which is known throughout the universe for its... stupidity. Even your Buddha and your Christ had quite a different vision, but nobody's paid much attention to them, not even the Buddhists or the Christians. You humans. Sometimes its hard to imagine how you've made it this far.
IM UNITED WITH GOD WHO IS CREATER OF ALL. EVIL WILL SUBSIDE WHEN ALL UNITE AND REPENT THEIR SINS FORE ALL HAVE SINNED AND COME SHORT OF HIS GLORY ANG GRACE
Wow, this is an unexpectedly shallow, purely binary, look at a complex subject. Are anarchists either nationalist or globalist? How about paleolithic tribes: nationalist or globalist? I and many others reject rulers at all levels.
The hundred-year-old experiment Neutral Moresnet was internationalist, but not, to my knowledge, globalist. So was the United States at the beginning.
It is not about writing letters to elected officials or voting some good person into office who will do the right thing.
True Citizenship is about the Ratification or Annulment of each line of every law, rule and regulation on the books or that is on the docket waiting to be turned into law, policy and taxes.
During the 1992 Presidential campaign, Ross Perot made this observation and furthered commented that: "a general lack of accountability among elected officials and those in the bureaucracy is the one specific reason that the people in America suffered…. and the only way to hold them accountable is to inspect their work."
Now, it is a known fact that the voting members of the US Congress and the State Legislatures do not have enough time to read or debate the particulars contained in any of the typically 100 new laws they vote on each day, every five minutes, while in session.
Approximate facts for example:
a. Every day that the Congress and Legislatures are in session 100 new bills are introduced and distributed.
b. The representatives are given two weeks to review the laws before they are brought up for the Vote.
c. Two weeks into the session they begin voting on the Laws that were previously introduced.
d. Many laws are in excess of two thousand pages.
e. The math demonstrates that the "democratically elected representative" does not have the time to even read the name of the Law much less the content of it.
f. And since the duly elected Representative is incapable of evaluating 200 thousand pages of law speak per day they have all forfeited their delegated obligation to represent us.
So, the only way to prevent these over worked and fallible people from making some more tragic mistakes from which we, and the rest of the world, might never recover is to include ourselves, The Citizens, from whom the authority for government comes in the first place, in the decision making process.
The Electronic Congress
How it works:
1. Before a new law, tax, or expenditure can be put on the books it must first be Ratified by the Citizens.
2. Existing laws can be Annulled by the same super majority required to Ratify them.
Ross Perot went on to note that this can easily be done with computers and he called the program: THE ELECTRONIC TOWNHALL, and said, "it is only logical that it will become our Fourth Branch of Government".
This program can be applied to every level of government and will ultimately solve every problem we have.
To prevent chaos, the basic law, our Constitution and Bill of Rights, would be exempt from review.
Mr. Perot speculated that the Founding Fathers would probably have done the same had the technology been available in their day.
Just imagine:
g. We, the People, could actually direct the priorities of the major agencies like the: CDC and NIH as well as the libraries and local police departments.
If our government truly is of the people, by the people and for the people then this is the only way forward.
How to implement it:
We talk about it until it is done.
Why shouldn’t your vote really count?
We can acquire the text of a recent law or Supreme Court ruling and have AI parse its actionable elements, apply a questionnaire so that the concerned Citizens can Ratify or Annul it. Then distribute the links.
Can I make money with this?
Websites with traffic can put up the laws they find most egregious for Ratification or Annulment, probably charge a $1 or so per voter for doing it, and watch the evolution in real time.
Ask the local school board for their agenda items, have AI parse the actionable elements, create a questionnaire, distribute it to the concerned citizens and then evaluate the results.
When Human Beings made in the image of God can see the result of their noblest and most sober thoughts, at such a scale, then there will be the moment where Our Benevolence and Good Will shall
overcome Evil and then we all live happily ever after.
Ross Perot publicly promised that if the People of America would elect him to The Presidency he would give us The Electronic Townhall.
The Fourth Branch of Government will allow us to go from Chaos to Prosperity and a Life Worth Living until the end of time.
We were created by God and in the image of God; we are human beings, not animals in a pen.
Ah, the modern curse of the false binary, of the either/or that misses everything. Left/right, trans/transphobe, national/international. I rather assumed you were way beyond such banal thinking.
Congrats on the interview! Well done.
Thanks Roman. Cameron did a great job!
