Constantly displayed hatred — and a lack of consequences for failed leadership — have destined the end of the Western Imperium

Does morality matter?

 

In the 21st Century United States, one would think not.

 

 

Today, I link to two perceptive opinions . . .

 

. . . cast just this week.

 

Combined, their most essential points are that Western Civilization has shot itself in the head with its geopolitically and ethically unpalatable behaviors.

 

This is not a comment about so-called conservatism or progressivism.

 

It is, instead, a simple observation about the core substance of human-based good and evil.

 

 

Here are the two opinions

 

These are based on American leadership's instigation and continual fomentation of the Ukraine War.

 

The first analysis, regarding the United States' probable contribution to Ukraine's flirtation with false-flag exploding a radioactive 'dirty' bomb:

 

 

to blame on the Russians

 

and thereby

 

collaterally win the Biden administration's midterm elections

 

as well as

 

get NATO into the war

 

 

. . . to the absurdly profitable benefit of the Military Industrial Complex:

The second set of observations has to do with United States' demon-minded, devil-acting neocons.

 

Pointing out that no American leader (or institution) ever suffers any consequences for societally painful outcomes.

 

Including killing off millions of people for no rational or morally defensible reasons.

 

The conclusion (from all this) being that consequence-evading American leaders have no incentive whatsoever to act in ordinary folk's personal and societal interests.

 

And, therefore, they will keep acting in the same murdering ways:

The moral? — American leadership is indeed 'evil' . . .

 

. . . in exactly the most basic of religious-spiritual senses.

 

As Jiddu Krishnamurti once said — one cannot be a politician, a militarist and/or a plunderer — or anything else similarly inclined toward extortion, rape and pillage — and be spiritually (soulfully) aware at the same time.

 

A nation that literally worships Forceful Greed and Constant Lies is the antithesis of anything consciously worthwhile.

 

A society (like ours) that promotes its worst people to heights of power is bound to self-destruct.

 

The question is whether saner civilizations will be able to somewhat protect themselves from our vicious insanities, while we tumble ourselves into the metaphorical Pit.
