Here’s a video by a supposed “expert in U.S. military intelligence” who did, perhaps, fight in Afghanistan and appear on Tucker Carlson’s show. He claims that there is ironclad evidence that Russia and China are planning an imminent EMP (electric magnetic pulse) attack on the United States which will immediately render our country devoid of power, and thus cold, starving, and looted by armed gangs. Of course, as with the case of all shocking claims of this is sort, it’s something “the government is hiding from us.”
I have a couple of suspicions:
He says he’s a friend of Donald Trump. So Trump is hiding this horrible truth from us? OK, Trump is one of the most terrible people this country has ever encountered, but really?
What does he suggest that the U.S. would do if it came under this type of attack from a conspiracy between Russia and China and “90% of Americans were (actually) losing their lives to heat-stroke, frostbite, starvation, disease via failure of refrigeration and hospitals. etc? Send over some diplomats with fancy leather briefcases?
I happen to know people personally who have told me (and these are not military secrets), that, under a circumstance like this, that if we are not able to knock these attack missiles out of the sky, we will dump everything we have on the attacking country(ies), eradicating them within a few minutes from the surface of the Earth.
Whom to believe? This fool, supposed friend of Trump and Carlson, or your own common sense?
Not sure about this.
A magna cum laude graduate of Harvard Law School might struggle to identify a bear. Could be.
This is the intelligence level of the American electorate today.
The Chinese ownership of American farmland is less than 0.00036, or 0.036%. To put this into perspective, if the entirety of U.S. farmland were reduced to one acre, the Chinese government and business interests would own less than 15 square feet, about half the size of a small broom closet.
Yet, true to form, this is a huge issue for the MAGA base.
This guy is quite effective in talking to uneducated, conservative Americans, most of whom have never traveled to, or even read anything about the happiest countries on Earth.
If I were going to make a statement about the relationship between social justice and despotism, I would at least consider the lives of the people in places that consider social justice to be something of importance, and compare/contrast this to the list of the countries that are perennially at the top of the World Happiness Rankings.
What makes the people in New Zealand, Iceland, Costa Rica, Northern Europe, etc., so happy? Why do these are these nations suffer exactly zero despotism?
I would be completely ashamed of myself if I were to forward a political theory that had precisely no basis in fact.
