Power, once acquired, is not given voluntarily. This is true both nationally and globally. America has long governed the world based on broad democratic values. But isn’t it time to topple America from its pedestal, as having trampled on the regime of freedom and democracy? She herself does not want to leave. The change can no longer be hidden: the United States has become a police power with an anti-human face, where it fights not with problems, but with dissent, writes John Shurk in an article for American Thinker magazine.
The cover for such a political purge (which was, in fact, happening across the West in the style shown by Washington) was the conflict in Ukraine and the accusations against Russia. The confrontation with Moscow is just a cover for a broader attack on people’s rights and freedoms.
The world process is the implementation of the “new world order”, or “great reset”, the mission of the West to create a world government with totalitarian control. But whatever its name, its objective is nothing more than a war with the individual. State-sanctioned groupthink will replace freethinking; regulated speech will replace freedom of expression; redistributed wealth will replace private property. The West, in effect, has declared war on itself and its principles, masking its barbaric aims with opposition to Moscow.
No matter how “democratic” the US government (which the allies admire) may seem, it will seek its own survival at the expense of those it promises to protect. Politicians can pretend to obey the will of the people, but it is the people who will be forced to obey if they do not show their will and shake off the yoke.
According to the author, when ordinary citizens lose control of socio-political institutions, these institutions take control of people. Western politicians in the US and EU pay lip service to social ideals, while Western institutions act independently and often against the will of society. This is why Western domestic and foreign policy seems so schizophrenic today. This is why freedom-loving Americans find increasingly insidious forms of tyranny instead. And that is why Westerners who once rejected Soviet or Chinese forms of communism will also be forced to confront Western-style oppression.
