American capitalism gone with a whimper
Pravda (Russian) ^ | 4/27/09 | Matt Rodina

It must be said, that like the breaking of a great dam, the American decent into Marxism is happening with breath taking speed, against the back drop of a passive, hapless sheeple, excuse me dear reader, I meant people.

BREAKING NEWS

Lessons of democracy from the USA

True, the situation has been well prepared on and off for the past century, especially the past twenty years. The initial testing grounds was conducted upon our Holy Russia and a bloody test it was. But we Russians would not just roll over and give up our freedoms and our souls, no matter how much money Wall Street poured into the fists of the Marxists.

Those lessons were taken and used to properly prepare the American populace for the surrender of their freedoms and souls, to the whims of their elites and betters.

First, the population was dumbed down through a politicized and substandard education system based on pop culture, rather then the classics. Americans know more about their favorite TV dramas then the drama in DC that directly affects their lives. They care more for their "right" to choke down a McDonalds burger or a BurgerKing burger than for their constitutional rights. Then they turn around and lecture us about our rights and about our "democracy". Pride blind the foolish.

Then their faith in God was destroyed, until their churches, all tens of thousands of different "branches and denominations" were for the most part little more then Sunday circuses and their televangelists and top protestant mega preachers were more then happy to sell out their souls and flocks to be on the "winning" side of one pseudo Marxist politician or another. Their flocks may complain, but when explained that they would be on the "winning" side, their flocks were ever so quick to reject Christ in hopes for earthly power. Even our Holy Orthodox churches are scandalously liberalized in America.

The final collapse has come with the election of Barack Obama. His speed in the past three months has been truly impressive. His spending and money printing has been a record setting, not just in America's short history but in the world. If this keeps up for more then another year, and there is no sign that it will not, America at best will resemble the Wiemar Republic and at worst Zimbabwe.

These past two weeks have been the most breath taking of all. First came the announcement of a planned redesign of the American Byzantine tax system, by the very thieves who used it to bankroll their thefts, loses and swindles of hundreds of billions of dollars. These make our Russian oligarchs look little more then ordinary street thugs, in comparison. Yes, the Americans have beat our own thieves in the shear volumes. Should we congratulate them?

I think that it is strange that Russia can see what is happening to the USA, and America seems dumbfounded and ignorant.

Don’t think for a minute, though, that Pravda reprints this with good intentions.

Russia would love to be the standard-bearer of the world’s functioning economic system.

It never was about ideology, except to a few. For the educated, it was only about national/ethnic power struggle, same as it has been for thousands of years.

The “ideology” stuff was only ever there to confuse & disorient.

So you are telling all those that posted this article that they are fools? Duped by the Russian press? Not nearly as smart as you? That what you are reading is propaganda? Pick out something from the article that you think is a lie.

So they post it because they want to make us look bad. Pretty easy to do when , in fact , bad happened. They make us look bad by simply being honest! Pretty amazing when Pravda is truthful and our own press is propaganda 24/7.

Of course there is some truth. Plenty of American pundits are saying the same thing, clearer, better, and without the anti-US undertones.

There have been far better editorials than this in the Wall St Journal, IBD. This is shocking because it’s Pravda, but it shouldn’t be.

Yes, most people are totally misled as to the nature of the problem. Yes, the vast majority of people have a simplistic view that is easily reinforced by pathetically shallow propaganda. Yes, that’s what Pravda is about. Yes, the people who swallow propaganda think they are smart. Yes, unless we deal with these facts we are doomed to being completely crushed.

bttt

How terribly ironic — The American Lamestream medjia does nothing but lie and print the “party line” for the Marxist/Fascist Obama administration, ... and English Pravda suddely prints the truth about what is happening here.
