Insofar as 2GreenEnergy “headquarters” is near a little Danish town in California that has considerable appeal to European tourists, I often have the opportunity to meet people from the Continent.
When the conversation turns to politics, as it often does, I have to opportunity to listen to others’ viewpoints about what’s happening in the United States, and the leadership of Donald Trump in particular.
I can’t remember a single person who voiced any support for Trump or expressed any tolerance for the idea that America should forfeit its democracy to a would-be dictator.
It is for that reason that the list of countries participating in the “No Kings” rally (see above) is quite large.
It’s not as if the United States has held the moral high ground throughout its history, with its slavery, the butchering of the Indians, Jim Crow, the support of tyrannical dictatorships around the globe, and the corrupt suppression of the working class in favor of Trump’s billionaire donors.
Yet, it was very recently that the entire nation became a force for the destruction of civil society.
There really are threats to human civilization that seem to be mounting in intensity:
• World fascism. (If it can happen in the U.S., it could conceivably happen anywhere.)
• Environmental collapse.
• Malicious use of AI.
• Pandemics, as misinformation on vaccinations spread and the frozen tundra melts, releasing pathogens never seen by humans.
• Nuclear war.
Addressing the point made at left, is there any scenario in which world governments agree to cooperate so as to stave off the end of an organized society here on Earth? One supposes so, though it sounds far-fetched in today’s world in which the leaders of most of the 200+ sovereign nations are trying so desperately to cling to power.
Obviously, James Carville has been wrong before, but it appears that he’s onto something here.
An ever-increasing number of Americans are realizing that Trump is criminally insane, and is leading this nation to destruction.
