Helping others when they face the precipice
To my old grad school classmate is now a psychology professor @ Columbia. While our politics have differed for years, we just don’t go there and would never let politics dictate our friendship.
He recently mentioned in a text that he missed being young & optimistic about the future. I responded by saying what’s wrong with being old and optimistic to which he replyed that he was frustrated with Columbia University for calling the NYPD to suppress protests on Campus. This was my response back this morning…
“Corruptio optimi pessima.”
This Latin phrase from the Middle Ages means “the corruption of the best is the worst of all.”
This is the natural course of systemic corruption we see in human societies throughout history when the good is corrupted by the bad. You may recall the words of the great historian Will Durant, “A nation is born stoic, and dies epicurean.” But even the fall of Rome pails by comparison to what humanity is currently facing today - the eminent collapse of all institutions world wide.
IMO, the Declaration of Independence (DOI) remains the most important written document since Christ’s Sermon on the Mount. It freed humanity from the global slavery imposed on it by the British empire & remains to this day the ONLY BARRIER preventing the establishment of a GLOBAL technocratic transhumanist NWO [the Tower of Babel 2.0].
If you were the “fallen angel”, how would you go about making “the greatest country on Earth, the worst of all”?
1) Create an institution called the FEDERAL RESERVE, which is neither “federal” nor a “reserve” that finances perpetual wars around the world [human sacrifice] while imprisoning its citizens & their offspring in PERPETUAL debt?
2) Legalize theft by calling it “civil asset forfeiture”?
3) Engineer a global pandemic PsyOp to block the WILL of the PEOPLE & then commit DEMOCIDE by deploying a FAKE cure?
So YES!
It’s increasingly self-evident to EVERYONE that the U.S. Federal Government is now the largest criminal organization on Earth.
Let’s just remember NOT to throw the precious baby out with the fifty swamp-water. If the DOI falls, the whole world will follow…
While I have no illusions about the ominous challenges that lie ahead of us on this treacherous road to our future, that old AMERICAN motto UNITED WE STAND, DIVIDED WE FALL inspired by the Christian Gospel "if a house be divided against itself, that house cannot stand" remains TRUE today. So, I agree, “what you do is important…”
While I don’t have a crystal ball, I can confidentially say that I personally have never been more OPTIMISTIC about humanity’s long term future than I am right now. 🇺🇸
