Wow that's quite a list. I didn't even know a third of those.

Imperialist? :roll:

How could the US not be an imperialist hegemon given its own colonial pedigree and foundational color caste-class hierarchy?

The USA began as a Roman patrician-like slave republic that almost a century later forcibly surrendered slavery in order to remain a republic. — 180 Proof

If that's not enough for you, read on ... :mask:

Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!

Good resources on the topic:

I would say the founding of the U.S. rooted in the American Indian Wars is the most directly relevant, oddly missing in this thread.

The founding of the US didn't have much to do with conflicts with Native Americans, I don't think.

Here's what I think is going on. Kurt Gödel (mathematician, logician) was supposed to have confided to Albert Einstein (theoretical physicist) that the US constitution has a loophole that would allow a dictator (read emperor) to assume power without violating the constitution.

Perhaps this malignant loophole manifests itself in other, more subtle, ways as well. :chin:

When one is speaking about the dilemma of the power elite, who tend to be untouchable, anonymous. It is only a few brave souls that speak out, like Oliver Stone the director, and the X- CIA man L. Fletcher Prouty. I would imagine the only reason these chaps have not been murdered is that they are to much in the public eye. The only way Americans will have a democracy is if they take it back, but I think they have already been dumbed down so much that the bible Trumpers will take the day. Dark are the days ahead, the elite can steer these people into anything they like. The world at large is fearful.

Also, the Plutocracy has it's ways of marginalizing anyone who points them out for what they are. Like they did with Scott Ritter. No one wants to be accused of child abuse, etc. And how hard is it to plant shit on someone's computer? All it takes is a hint: "Hey Oliver, did you hear what happened to X? Be a shame to have that happen. What a shame."

I think that is quite another matter, but yes, one only needs to be accused of child molestation, and your screwed. Even if one is found innocent your marked for life in that community. I know of an old fellow many years ago who was accused. I have no doubt in my own mind it was a great injustice, he could no longer hold his head high in a community he had lived in his whole life. That said, I know there are legitimate cases, far more than at one time I would have imagined possiable.

one only needs to be accused of child molestation, — boagie

They don't even need to be accused. They only need to be threatened with being accused and that will get them to shut up and stay home like a good little citizen.

Yes, I have seen that in my time as well. Personally I use to be quite fond of interacting with children but give that up many many years ago. I grown man who has much to do with children is really sticking his neck out. Personally I've never had any difficulty, but I think that is because I saw the writing on the wall a long time ago.

Peoples opinions generally depend upon the information they have been exposed to. Your belief that the attempted genocide of the native American indian was not significant, is an indication that you need to do some additional research.
