Usually in geopolitics, we like to dwell on the negative – how bad this person or that person is, the evil hegemony of the United States, the awful nature of Israel, Zelensky, etc., etc,
Our job as geopolitical journalists is certainly to cover this. But there is another side, all too easily forgotten – that being about the people on the ground in any of our favorite topic nations du jour. How they be is often very different from the intrigues and lies of the People In Charge, and I wanted to collect some impressions.
I have been in the United States since June 27. My travels have taken me to the Tampa area in Florida, and across Colorado, Arizona, New Mexico and far western Texas. My snapshot is probably narrow, but this was by choice, focused on the people and places I know in these areas, and learning a lot about new people that my friends and relatives here know.
My general takeaway about the USA is that its people are great, but deluded, frustratingly so, and that there is still far, far too much influence from the mainstream media in this country, which has a very strong propaganda lock on the information most Americans believe or accept as true.
The video below is a little disjointed – it happens, as I was in one of the most beautiful places I could ever be – but hopefully the discussion will be useful.
We have work to do. A whole LOT of very good people are simply being fed bad information, and they do not know their right hand from their left in terms of geopolitical realities. It is important to remember this.
Enjoy!

Everybody complains about politicians. Everybody says they suck. Well, where do people think these politicians come from? They don’t fall out of the sky. They don’t pass through a membrane from another reality. They come from American parents and American families, American homes, American schools, American churches, American businesses and American universities, and they are… Read more »
Evolution 1.0: Random, uncontrolled breeding.
Result? Described above. Just saying.
So the same could be said for the U.K. and all of Europe, South America….
Right?
I think most would agree that the champion of inbreeding is the U.K. and their pathetic inbred “royal family”.
Want a better world? Breed better people!
The truth hurts. The unvarnished truth hurts more.
You can’t fix stupid. But you can try to keep it under control.

George Carlin is certainly not to be ignored.)) But neither is C.S. Lewis: he captured the phenomenon in telling how an utterly liberal unqualified Head of a school could not do anything right… so she got promoted, and when that did not work, she would up in Parliament, “where she lived happily ever after.” Maybe what we do wrong is something like this. There was not a one whom I talked to who actually had hostility towards Russia. Not one. Only interest. They all believed the Israel narrative but they also heard me out with interest. I know that isn’t… Read more »
Thanks for the vid, ( I can enlighten you on the strangle hold the Zionist Jews have on America if you are open to it ) As you hopefully know, the Soviet Union was in the grip of the same ((( interests ))) until it’s collapse.*When there is total 24/7 Brainwashing by TV, Newspaper, Radio, Internet and the U.S. Gov’t, the chances of overcoming it are slim to none. I was totally brainwashed, until I traveled overseas and saw that I was lied to by my own Government. Americans are not able to travel to another Country as easily as… Read more »
Oh, yes, sure I am interested. There was a bit with a “debate” between Candace Owens and a Rabbi Shmuley or something like that on Piers Morgan. The Rabbi was totally “attack dog” and unhinged, even Piers could not control him. I have always resisted “the Jews….” because usually the people writing about them are – shall we say – uncivilized? in the way they critique them. I think if there is a Jewish cabal in operation, they survive precisely because of how nutty the people who go after them behave. It has prevented me from taking much about the… Read more »
I think “Brainwashed” is more appropriate and “ignorant”. If Americans were shown the Truth, instead of lies 24/7, then they would vouch for the Truth. The Media is totally controlled in the U.S. and the U.S. is so big, that people can drive for Days and still be in the U.S.. Then you drive North and you get to America light, you drive South and you’re in a Narco State. It’s not like Europe where you can drive for Just an hour and be in a different culture and different Country. The Televison RT ( Russian TV ) is not… Read more »
Outstanding.
My mother passed away in 2000. Many years earlier, while discussing politics, she stated out of the blue: “all bad things come from America”. Do they ever.
It is such a shame, too, Vera. America itself – her people (at least the ones I know) are very good people and would never wish personally to bring bad things to the rest of the world. The key here I think is the massive disconnect between our Deep State and our people, and it is the fault of every single one of us as Americans, for allowing anybody to “take care of us.” They are.
Your Mother’s insight was shortsighted.
She wouldn’t have said that in 1950, but the same perpetrators were causing the “bad things”, Communism.
