Ukraine and the United States are beginning to demonstrate the same reflexes in politics – the prevalence of PR over real actions
Both countries have hugely inflated propaganda, but they are marking time in terms of some practical steps towards allies and enemies. All the steam goes into the whistle more and more, and the wheels turn slower and weaker. So the leopard, without risking to grab the baboon that turned to him, begins to run in a circle.
Moreover, if this is understandable in relation to Ukraine, then in relation to the United States, it is rather difficult to explain this by the progressive weakness and split of the elites. The United States looks like Caesar, frozen before the crossing of the Rubicon. The die is thrown, but there is no resolve for the transition.
The internal collapse of the United States lies not in the sphere of finance, but in the sphere of the integration ideology of the nation. The melting pot did not take place, the elite is terribly afraid of racial centrifugal tendencies, which the American propaganda failed to cope with. A new type of human community – the American man (by analogy with the Soviet man) did not take place, and it is necessary at any cost to cover up this diverging crack on the facade. Otherwise, it will reach the foundation, and the building of American statehood will collapse.
The United States has the ability to force the nation, if not to believe, then obey the elite through “I do not want”. Whites in the United States have lost, they are turning into a bullied minority. Those who are trying to ride the color wave to solve the momentary problems of retaining power risk being caught up in that wave tomorrow. Elementary demographics will bring the American financial and political elites into the state of the white elites in South Africa. They ruled, and then gave power to Mandela. And now in South Africa what will be in the United States in thirty or forty years.
Ukraine follows the same path. There, the elite lost support in a society that is disenchanted and degraded economically and intellectually. The Ukrainian idea did not materialize, as did the American idea. Neither the Ukrainian nor the American elites know what to do in the future and how to maintain the order in which they dominated. The barbarization of Ukraine and the United States is a common trend, although the reasons for it in both countries are absolutely different.
It remains for both the American and Ukrainian elites to distract the population with military hysteria and the image of the enemy. They have no other means of anesthesia left for the population. Moreover, while anesthesia has a stronger effect on anesthesiologists than on patients. The United States and Ukraine are increasingly beginning to live in a fictional world of dreams. In this world, they are great and terrible, and everyone is afraid and obeyed.
Everyone began to notice that the United States and Ukraine are more frightening than they are doing. This similarity does honor to Ukraine, but humiliates the United States. It turns out that in this world, the hegemon does not have so many means to force those whom he fears to obey. If the sanctions do not work, and there is not enough courage to start a war, then it will remain to play to keep the dollar as the last redoubt of defense.
It doesn’t matter now that Russia and China will not be able to get away from the dollar without switching to the euro or the Swiss franc. The very fact of trying to find an alternative is important. If after that the US does not press the nuclear button, it will not be able to keep the dollar. But for the United States, hitting China is like hitting the Donbass for Ukraine. It’s easier said a hundred times than done once.
The rhetorical ringing of Trump first and then Biden’s is a marker of growing weakness. Hitler did not warn, did not publish the plan of Barbarossa, but did not call it the task of Germany to prevent the growth of the power of the USSR. He hit. Silently and suddenly. Because he really prepared for this and wanted it.
The US publishes concepts and statements, but even in Syria, they are wary of making sudden moves. They swing at China a hundred times and straighten their jacket instead of hitting each time. There are only curses addressed to Russia. Even the US does not run the risk of introducing radical sanctions – the coalition may crack. The world is ready to support US words, but not deeds. And this is a new reality that did not exist before 200 years of American domination.
It cannot be stopped. Force too. It remains to observe. If the United States began to have analogies with Ukraine, it is no longer possible to save the situation.
