Inter-Communist Party problems arose in the current media debate over Joe Biden’s handling of common dementia before the Soviet Union’s decline.
Before the Soviet Union collapsed, its puppet officials Leonid Brezhnev, Yuri Andropov, and Konstantin Chernenko were likewise officially senile. But, leading Soviet leaders had no fresh ideas for bringing back a self-destructing nation, and they were permitted to present as in charge as a result of this.
According to a 1982 Washington Post opinion piece about Brezhnev, he had difficulty speaking and moving, especially down flight stairs. ” ]H] electronic also had whispering of his speech”, particularly when tired. To be dead, Brezhnev limited discussions with foreign leaders, and cronies stayed at his side “lest he fall”.
On July 8 the Wall Street Journal extensive how Biden’s officials “aggressively stage-managed” him” to lessen symptoms of” time. They take Brezhnev-like methods such as first bedtimes and limiting his appointment time, overseas travel, and interactions with voters.
In 1992, Angelo Codevilla wrote that “politburo users struggled for supremacy by acquiring the right to use and flames portions of the Party and political machine below them. Superior officials would attempt to do the same thing in turn with regard to their employees, while attempting to maintain as much independence as possible with regard to their customers and protectors. He describes this as” a latter-day royal system” in which access to power determined economic and cultural fame, instead of merit.
Others have also described the United States as lurching into “neo-feudalism”, includingthe poet Joel Kotkin. Stella Morabito has pointed out that all forms of tyranny, including communism and its desired end position, socialism, make false promises of justice to the masses while actually delivering a Byzantine method of privileges governed by a “power clique” here at The Federalist and abroad. That’s precisely what Democrats do.
At The Free Press, Niall Ferguson just comparedthe United States to the late Soviet program, citing our decaying leadership course, rock-bottom confidence in institutions, and deaths of despair. In an UnHerd podcast, he went on to say that “one of the really interesting things about the dissolution of the Soviet Union was that the people, the nomenklatura who controlled it, the Communist Party elite were just running it for their own gain,” which he transcribed here by Robert Malone.
The writer N. S. Lyons wrote insightfully last year of a Western-Communist” convergence”, noting that Western bureaucracies are not expanding freedom globally, as they’d promised when sending our manufacturing jobs and technological advantages abroad, but importing Communist-style bureaucratic tyranny. Despite how repulsive it may be, there are in fact some similarities between the US today and Communist systems.
Indeed, our bureaucracy that unites the executive, legislative, and judicial powers is exactly what our founding fathers directly described as “tyranny”. So long as unelected bureaucrats run the government and elected officials function as window dressing, the United States cannot be called a free country, a republic, or even a democracy. Therefore, Biden’s puppet presidency represents the elimination of our country’s birthright to representative self-government and the development of systemic corruption in our ruling class.
Smart people have read Western media as well as Pravda for a long time, allowing them to interpret their propaganda differently. One can be certain that democracy is in decline if the press suddenly starts blaring about “democracy.” One can see that inflation is at its highest level in 40 years if it starts talking about how inflation is actually a positive thing that is n’t actually occurring. Their denial confirms that it is true when they refer to Jill Biden and Barack Obama’s videos as” cheap fakes.”
In the era of Obama, corporate media moved beyond long-held bias to essentially oversee the Democrat Party and thus the nation via outright propaganda. The Big Covid Stampede was a testament to their ability to turn a worse-than-usual flu season into a significant global power grab that has n’t yet come to an end.
Biden’s performance on the debate stage last month lacked the deceptive projections that make tyrans so prevalent. While it was not surprising that American lockdowns aided an already mentally ill Biden in 2020 by facilitating voter smear among low-information voters, the media’s fear of covering up his debate dementia scared them.
The media are undoubtedly concerned about bringing Biden’s corpse across the finish line in 2024, but also about far bigger issues, such as foreign adversaries who are more aware that the United States does not have a democratic head of state. Even if they do, what’s the plan when he does finally keel over? Democrats ‘ other options are n’t even as plausible for “most votes ever” as this ice-cream-stuffed octagenarian addicted to foreign bribes.
The end result is a fierce internal power conflict between ruling class rivals. Ominously, when that happened inside the Soviet Union, it did n’t lead to an outpouring of freedom. It caused a period of chaos and mobster turf wars, which were largely resisted by the KGB as they reestablished the dictatorial order.
Contrary to what we’re told about” citizen uprisings” like Communist revolutions and the Arab Spring, they tend to replace one tyrant with another. There was a very uncommon exception to that pattern of history, the American Revolution. So the question is: What opportunities can be seized right away to stop the customary tyrant rotation?
I’d suggest people get involved in vote harvesting for Republican candidates, for one. Republicans are stupid, but the propaganda press is plotting Democrats ‘ schemes by putting their plans on their foes:
