Your country’s recent policies of interventionism rub a lot of people the wrong way. That’s not the only story though and it would be naive to think it is. The Western countries have sat secure because of our military, political, and economic alliance with the USA. The world whines about American hegemony but the fact remains that that hegemony also saved countries from fates like Soviet rule and brought economic prosperity. To deny this would be insane. Ask Japan and the Philippines as they watch China rising across the water. Uncle Sam might be a moralistic loudmouth who you think twice about letting near your daughters, but you’re also kind of glad to have him there when he scares off the punks who want to do you much worse harm. You can’t change history and that history has left America as a superpower for a reason.

Theoretically, America could just decide to shut down its bases, withdraw troops en masse, and start transitioning to a Ron Paul style policy. Like Sweden. But here’s the thing: you aren’t Sweden. And the reason Sweden can be Sweden is because America is America and America’s might lets Sweden get away with “feminist foreign policy”. To pull that move would leave a huge power vacuum. That power vacuum will still be America’s problem because America’s economic ties are global and power vacuums are very bad for business. And that’s before Russia and China and all the rest lose their anti-American unity and start taking shots at each other.

IMO, America needs to change its policy in two main ways. First it needs to come back to reality and realize that not every conflict is the good underdog vs the evil tyrant. Not every conflict demands an American presence. The Great Powers want to be big boys, so they need to start acting like it. Second, it needs to cede hegemony *in areas where there is a hegemon who can prevent a power vacuum*. That’s best case scenario. The conclusion I’ve come to about Ron Paul is that he is the American Cato. We should all admire his Republican virtue. But the Republic is gone and it’s not coming back. Now that the neocons and neoliberals have failed, others must take the reins. SM wants to reach those people, and those people need to know something about geopolitics. The great game never ends.

Neocons keep saying “isolation is no longer a feasible strategy”, but can never provide a logical reason why. It always comes back to the idea that America is a huge empire that ceaselessly pokes its nose into the business of people in faraway countries, and that “isolationism” somehow provides us no defense from the blowback we experience from that. Yeah, well, I guess. But that’s kind of like saying that stopping drinking is not a feasible strategy because your morning beer is the only thing that cures the hangover you get from the fifth of whiskey you drink every night. It’s true as far as it goes, but completely ignores a much better, more comprehensive solution in favor of one where the best that can be said about it is that it does an okay job of solving a problem that it caused in the first place.

And please, don’t play the shell game of conflating Ron Paul-style non-interventionism with pre-Admiral Perry Japanese-style total isolationism. I know of precisely nobody who advocates the latter, not even Buchananite immigration restrictionists/trade protectionists (of which I am, admittedly, one). Non-interventionism is completely feasible. Most countries in the world do not have huge militaries or globe-spanning empires, and get along fine without them. We would too. Neither did we have any such thing before 1898, and somehow we got along fine without it. We would again.

I have no need to understand the whole world in order to fix America’s problems. In fact, what we need is just the opposite – to stop trying to fix the whole world’s problems and to start focusing on fixing our own. The distraction represented by the mainstream right’s fixation on distant foreign bogeymen is much of what keeps it from being effective in keeping our culture preserved. The Republicans can’t stop gay “marriage”, or Obamacare, or Common Core, or executive amnesty, but they can sure as fuck defy the President and the left for their chance to give “Bibi” 60 standing ovations in a row. THAT, they’ll grow a spine for. No thanks – I have no desire to be an enabler for their shitty priorities.

Again, the only thing I care about with the American Empire is that it ends, as fast as possible. The sooner the better, say I. You’ve given me precisely no reason to change my mind. I still don’t know why I should want the American Empire to continue or why isolationism is “no longer a feasible strategy”. I still don’t know what this Tom Clancy guff is doing on Social Matter or why me or any neoreactionary should give a shit about it. Factoid-spamming me with a bunch of historical details that are not part of a coherent counterargument leaves me unmoved.

If you want to write stuff that neocons care about, please go do it on Free Republic or somewhere else where it fits in and I don’t have to be annoyed by it.

I know conspiracy of a North American Union, as is Oceanic for Australia, it’s unfortunate that it’s not one though. As you can see the propaganda in the way the governments, academics and journalists are selling it to the mass populace. Not only that, Politicians, bureaucrats high up the chain like to leave a mark, to be the first to institute an economic forum, or a new banking project with China as Mr Abbott announced today.

Here’s some fight back in a soft green approach.

One Australian Business man fights openly for little Australia, uses it in his business model too, from Australian farmers, to buying Australian made, also openly rejects Halal and Kosher.

I know of much more material, even Political from years ago in the parliament, from competent MP’s, of course none of this gets MSM attention today.

Russia has been against America as a matter of survival. We see this clearly in the rise of the Bolsheviks, who received gratuitous American backing in funds and Western support during the intervention. The Bolsheviks were, of course, explicitly anti-Russian. If the fight by White Russians, Green Russians, and other pro-Russian factions against the American backed Bolsheviks isn’t an anti-American stance I don’t know what is.

The institution of the Soviet Union, again a thoroughly anti-Russian state, only later came to conflict with America during World War 2 and only during this war did they revive a restrained Russian patriotism to encourage millions of Russians to fight and die for them. Remember: The Soviet Union was not Russia. It was the Soviet Union.

Was Russia ever pro-American? Absolutely. Russia was an early ally of the young United States, more than a century ago, but they long since turned on their old friend.

Korean hostility stretches all the way to the beginning of the General Sherman affair, in which a number of American traders were killed attempting to violently enter Korean markets. The various responses comprise the 1871 US-Korean campaign. Relations cooled courtesy of the Chemulpo treaty of 1882 and the Korean aspirations for a restored expansion into Manchuria as the Korean monarchy brought Americans into key parts of the army. These efforts were nullified after the American betrayal of King Kojong courtesy of the Taft-Katsura Agreement. The Americans traded Japanese support for their power in the Phillipines and Hawaii with their trusting ally in Korea.

The North, featuring Pyongyang has been a traditional capitol of Korea, and they have not forgotten the American betrayal. Study history before claiming the ignorance of the author.

That being said, I absolutely agree that America has been anti-Russian and the anti-Americanism in Russia is tame by comparison but that makes no difference. The Russians have responding by expounding the truth: America is out to get them. And the response of the Russians has been anti-Americanism, not just in Russia but in Syria, in Serbia, in Cyprus, in Iran, in China, in North Korea, in Pakistan, and in India. They may make their offers garbed in velvet gloves, but no one forgets that America is the foe that seeks their ruin.

Naval-gazing isn’t a strength. If you want to break the back of American’s difficulties you’ll need to understand the outside world for which America has transformed itself to dominate. Think big picture, anti-Dem.

Nope.

Russia was “historically” not anti-American at all until the Cold War started; and certainly wasn’t before the Russian Revolution. North Korea, as a nation, is younger than my dad, so sweeping statements about “historic” trends when it comes to North Korea are nonsense.

As for post-1991 Russia, first, American “experts” wrecked their economy, then we broke every promise we made to them about NATO expansion, then started overthrowing governments in their sphere with our CIA-staged “color revolutions” – the last of which started a war on their doorstep. Russia hasn’t been anti-American, America has been anti-Russian. There’s a difference.

Anyhow, what’s this neocon bullshit doing on Social Matter? Take your Tom Clancy LARPs to National Review where they fit in. The only thing I want from the American Empire is for it to be gone. The biggest threat to “the west” isn’t some army on the ass-end of Asia, it’s ourselves – our own stupidity and degeneracy and cowardice. The war against that is the war I care about winning. Anything else is distraction

This may sound strange, propaganda comes in all forms. I’ve seen a couple of recent examples, if you dig you’ll find more. Recently the Australian governemnt has bought out the ‘2015 Intergenerational report: Australia in 2055′ Guess where most of the population growth and immigration is going to come from? We can all guess pretty damn accurately without even looking at the report. This is a bipartisanship position of both political parties, therefore set in the current bureaucratic work force as an unmovable stone. We call it the ‘Asianastion of Australia’

The previous Labor government was a little bit more forward, they called it the ‘Big Australia’ and the ‘Chinese Century’ Then Labor died in the polls after that, as collectively the white Australian populace had images of polluted, over populated East Asian and worse South East Asian cities. Push back is going to come back from white Australia soon, gone are the days when they could fool the masses as easily as Howard. Now we have the internet.

The TV here specifically the multicultural channel SBS, has a marked increase of East Asian cinema, even a specific Australian Asian comedy TV series, curtsey of the tax payer. I’ve also noticed a dating show of all things, encouraging the ‘Mainland’ East Asian multiculturalism, very heavily promoted actually, the most popular show in China. Even the East Asian diaspora was involved. Including the Yellow fever whites and I remember a NY AngloJew in one episode. The show ‘If you are the one?’ Is only a dating show, yet the Chinese Nationalism comes through so strong, the cultural Marxists of the SBS had to do a 1 hour special show to make some comedic fun of the Nationalism and emphasise the multiculturalism… Which is hard to do when 99% of the Chinese women knock back white men for not being Chinese.

So the predicament of a ‘mainland’ East Asian multiculturalism, which extends to the East Asians globally, New Zealand, Australia, USA, Canada, and Europe, which I have seen MSM and TV shows made by China for this purpose, and reciprocated propaganda by there allies in our nations, mostly paid for by our own taxes by the way. Then under minds the position of the US by default in trade, as I don’t doubt the periphery South Eastern nations will play one off the other for lucrative advantage, as they risk being smashed in the middle. Higher the risk the more $$$, I’m sure there are more East Asian diaspora in periphery South Eastern nations, then in the Liberal post western democracies . It’s a win/win for the East Asian diaspora inside and out side the western sphere.

But you can bet that the Chinese will push for it, citing anti-Americanism as the Japanese did, for support.
