"What the hell was that!"

Countries, like people, are born in pain. They mature, grow old, and then inevitably die. They can fall into decay, can get sick, may recover and become stronger again. The maturing process usually takes centuries, and decline and disease can last for decades, while death sometimes takes only a few days.
Today, the great and prosperous America is seriously ill. It has been ill for more than fifty years with a mental disease called "liberalism."
Like a cancer, liberalism corrodes the formerly free and creative soul of the American people. For more than two hundred years, the U.S. population had markedly distinguished itself from all others by its perseverance, hard work, uncompromising commitment to freedom, desire for personal success, and primacy of the individual over the state.
In the past, people of the United States had been known for their ingenuity, perseverance, competitiveness, and ability to overcome adversity. However, in modern times, these winning qualities not only have disappeared, but even are considered something indecent and shameful. Succeeding, getting a strong education, forging ahead in careers — these are no longer virtues, but shameful shortcomings.
Liberal philosophy doesn't value equality before the law, which would be moral and right, but instead requires the recognition of equality of people in their abilities — something contrary to the laws of nature. Such equalizing attempts were made one hundred years ago in the USSR and seventy years later led to a degradation and disintegration of the country. Sameness inevitably leads to stagnation, decay, and dying. Only in comparison is it possible to select the best; progress is nourished only by struggle and competition. Today, these obvious truths are rejected by the liberalism-infected U.S. population.

What nonsense
Left out Wylie coyote and road runner as well as Elmer Fudd and Bugs Bunny
I always want the neighbors cats to hang around and kill mice whenever possible. Cats are my friends. Mice are to be exterminated.
“Today, the great and prosperous America is seriously ill.”
I could not agree more, in fact I think we are much worse than ‘seriously ill’. I think The United States is on it’s death bed. I doubt there will be a 50 state United States in another 25 years. Maybe Igor Panarin was correct on everything except the year.
Bunk. It is a serious character flaw to be so in love with your own brilliance that you torture an analogy in this manner while reveling in your brilliance effortlessly abandoning truth along the way.
Yes America is in trouble but not because of a David vs Goliath cartoon character. There is nothing wrong with an underdog winning. In fact that example has inspired many to strive, persevere and develop their talents.
He is right. When we allow sentimentality to overrule reason, we allow the weak to become our overlords.
There is reasonable fairness and there is some bizarre codependent lackeying which does not help the weak and drains the strong. I am not a huge fan of Any Rand but I also see that extremes in either direction are not good.
Cats are tolerated due to the effect they have on mice.
