STATE OF THE NATION (AND THE WORLD)
The USA is now sliding down the same path pursued by the bloodiest
tyrannical governments of recent world history: The Roman Empire, Hitler’s National
Socialist Germany, Mao’s China, Stalin's Russia, and almost every Islamic
country today! Right now, as with those failed and failing regimes, our
predominant existing regime, regardless of the party, and regardless of how it
got there, is seeking to control what the general public is allowed to hear and
think! That’s how tyrannical governments seek to maintain their power. Any
critical speech, or even the asking of a legitimate question about the current regime
is not allowed on network “news”, or most social media.
This shutting down of free speech is one thing the founders
of this country tried mightily to prevent, with the US Constitution and Bill of
Rights. But in spite of the requirement for our elected politicians to swear an
oath to uphold the Constitution, they are rapidly destroying the freedoms we
fought for in World War II. The freedom our founding fathers tried so hard to
establish for all Americans is slipping away from us now, because of the plans and
actions of a loosely-organized group of leftist ideologs and social elitists. But
they are not as smart as they think they are. I believe there really is a light
at the end of the tunnel, and that it is darkest just before the dawn!
Most ordinary people on every side of this debate who like
to post their opinions on social media, obviously have little or no knowledge of
the patient efforts of the elitists who have been pushing policies to subvert and
destroy our democratic republic, or how they have maneuvered us to this point. Many
post links to videos of political activists they happen to agree with, and “fact-checkers”
who also turn out to be other political activists who agree with them, thus
remaining ignorant of the actual facts. The loosely-associated political and economic
elitists who have been pushing toward their goal of world domination, to my
knowledge for more than five decades now, are using the very same tactics as
their predecessors, including Julius Caesar, Justinian I, Stalin, Mao, and Hitler.
These tactics include: “Divide and conquer, the ends justify the means, any
convenient lie, especially if it is a big lie, if repeated often, will
eventually be believed by a majority of the people, and dissenting opinions
must be silenced.” They have also infiltrated public education and denounced all
religions as “the opiate of the masses”. Like all their predecessors, they are resorting
to suppression of free speech and pushing for eugenics, i.e., selective genocide,
disguised as “social engineering” to get rid of those “deplorables” they cannot
use or control. But we are catching on, and I believe enough of us will wake up
before it is too late.
The awakening has started. See the interview at the end of this post.
After posting a few blogs addressing political issues in 2020,
I have chosen to remain quiet for several reasons. When I wrote about what I
actually knew to be true, most of the responses I received were positive. There
may have been more who disagreed, and just ignored me, but there were only three
people who responded negatively. I have no problem with people believing
something different than I do. Open debate is a good thing. But one of the
three used foul language, called me names and kept sending me links to insulting
political-activist propaganda. I asked him to stop, but he persisted. I ignored
him for a while, and finally threatened to block his rude offensive intrusions.
But what prompted me to stop addressing what I know to be a serious problem for
our nation, were the other two responses. They came from two people for whom I
have love and respect. I felt that no expression of political opinion is worth losing
dear friends over. Now I think that this was the wrong thing to do. Anyone who
fails to stand up for truth helps to enable the big lie.
Impugning those who disagree with you, especially using
profanity and calling them names, is never justifiable. In a free society, everyone
has the right to believe what they want to and express their opinion about any
subject. I have lived and worked in countries where free speech is not allowed
before, and have seen how fear of government persecution ruins lives. Repeating
as fact the biased spin of political activists, however, no matter how much you
want to believe their interpretations, is also unacceptable. If everyone would
refrain from repeating the opinions of biased political activists, and only
comment on things they know about personally, from direct experience, then most
of the vitriol and anger prevalent currently would be eliminated. So, while I
will no longer refrain from commenting on political issues, I will only comment
based on my own experience, not hearsay, and I will try hard to be respectful
of those I consider to be misguided, and even of those who I believe are
willfully evil.
I think my perspective is unique and worthy of expression
and consideration, not just because I was alive before and during World War II,
the Korean War, Viet Nam War, and the sixteen foreign conflicts that the US has
been involved in since, but because I have specific experience and knowledge
related to the current difficult situation. My credentials and intellectual capabilities
are a matter of public record and can be found in a variety of places online,
including Google and Microsoft search engines, www.ERCloseTPhysics.com, Nature's Mold Rx, and www.BrainVoyage.com . I will endeavor to
clearly distinguish between what I know as fact, and my personal opinion, and I
will explain how I happen to know about some of the covert plans and activities
by enemies, both foreign and domestic, to undermine and destroy the democratic
republic of the United States of America. Subtle subversive activities that
have been going on behind the scenes during at least the last 50 years of my lifetime.
If saying this puts me at risk, then so be it. In the free country that the USA
once was, I had a right to tell you what I know, and express my opinion about
it, without fear of reprisal from evil forces. From things being reported on
national news now, it appears that that’s no longer the case. We are no longer
allowed to think for ourselves.
The first hint I had that the US might be sowing the seeds
of its own demise was in 1962, when I was a graduate student in theoretical
physics, taking a course in quantum mechanics. It was in a summer class with only
12 students, and one was a Chinese national. American Universities were being
encouraged by the government of John F. Kennedy’s Administration to enroll as
many foreign national students as possible. It seemed like a good idea to me. I
knew that the language of science was, and is, mathematics, a truly
international language. I had been interested in languages since an early age. Growing
up in a mining town full of immigrants and first and second generation families,
I heard several languages daily, including Hungarian, German, Cajun French, and
English with Scottish, Irish, and Welsh accents. By the age of 11 or 12, I had
begun to study Spanish, French, and German. In college and university, I
endeavored to befriend foreign students to learn about their language and
culture. It was quite natural for me to try to strike up a conversation with
the Chinese student in my quantum mechanics class.
At first, he was very reserved, but eventually, I learned
that he did not intend to apply for US citizenship and seek employment here after
graduation. He planned to return to Beijing (then called Peking by
English-speaking people). That certainly didn’t raise any kind of red flag for
me, because I believed that seeking scientific knowledge was a global effort
and that increasing knowledge and understanding anywhere in the world would enhance
international cooperation and increase the potential for world peace. I thought
this was the attitude of all human beings and governments. But I, like most
academics, was naïve. The Chinese Communist Government was, and is, openly
antagonistic to any form of democracy, and they have clearly stated their goal
of world domination many times. As I began to get to know the Chinese physics
student, I realized that he was actually a spy, with great disdain for the
American way of life.
I learned that he believed that American society in general,
and America’s government in particular, were a decadent collection of egoistic
fools driven by greed, and that America would be easily conquered by what he considered
to be the superior governmental system of communism, based on dialectic
materialism, within a few decades. In particular, he saw our “New-Age Liberals”
as America’s Achilles heel, self-indulgent and complacent. At the time, I thought
his attitude was ridiculous, because I identified with those complacent
Liberals, and I thought that he and his mentors in China were probably a very small
group of extremists who would be overwhelmed by the natural human desire for
peace and harmony. But, I began to see, as time went on, that I was wrong. The surge
of foreign students, welcomed by the American academic community in the name of
diversity, continued to grow, increasing by about 5% to 10% per year to nearly
900,000 in 2013-14, with over 530,000 Chinese nationals, mostly graduate
students, and most of them were
hand-picked by their government and trained to infiltrate every level of
American society, especially higher education and politics.
The influx of Chinese students declined from that number, to
about 340,000 in 2018-19, still by far the highest number from any foreign
country. While much of the decline after 2016 was because of the Trump Administration’s
anti-Chinese Communist Party (CCP) actions and then in 2020 because of the Covid-19
pandemic, the decline before 2020, in my opinion, was due in no small part, to
the dumbing-down of the American public educational system during the creeping rise
of socialism in this country. There is ample evidence of the dumbing-down of
American public education over the past 40 years, but I don’t have to rely on
government statistics, which may be skewed by politically biased assumptions, I
observed it as it was happening, myself. I think a side-bar explanation is warranted
to explain.
When I was a student in US elementary and secondary public schools
between 1942 and 1955, those who did not master the course material of reading,
writing, and mathematics proficiency at the minimum level of any given grade,
were not passed on to the next grade until they did. Not many failed, but a few
did. I had a classmate or two who fell one, to, and three years behind their age
group. Students’ grades were calculated by teachers based on standardized norms,
and were placed on report cards as E, S. M, I, or F. Those letters were abbreviations
for “Excellent, Superior, Medium, Inferior, and Failing”. By the time I took my
first job as a secondary-school math teacher in 1962, the dumbing-down was
already well under way. The three-level path through public education based on student
aptitude had been abandoned. Students of all levels of ability were mixed together
in over-crowded classrooms, and expected to study academic subjects whether
they were interested in them or not. I was also surprised to find that, as a public
high school math teacher, I was one of a rare few who actually had a degree in
mathematics. In addition, I was told by the school Principal, who was also the
Basketball coach, that I couldn’t fail anyone, even if they never passed a
single test.
I really enjoyed teaching, and in my very first year as a
high-school math teacher, my students swept the regional math contest where
they were up against students from several much larger schools. I was told by
the Principal, when I began preparing students for the contest by offering to
come in on weekends for anyone who wanted extra help, that I “shouldn’t get
their hopes up.” Because “our school had never won anything in the regional
contest in the past”. When my students won first place in all five categories,
and amassed the highest total score of any school competing, it barely got notice.
Not only did the Principal not congratulate us, but I also had to write the
article myself, to get it into the local newspaper.
The re-defining of the meaning of certain common English
words was also being imposed by the National Education Association (NEA) a union
whose mission statement includes: The NEA is a group of all sorts of people “…
friends who believe in the power of public
education to transform lives and create a more just and inclusive society“
- apparently at the expense of excellence in education. E,S,M,I,F was replaced
by A,B,C,D, and students who had failed, were said to have been “held back”, as
if their failure were the teachers’ fault. All of this social engineering by
people who are supposed to be educating our children, created generations of
young people who are not motivated to strive for excellence, and who believe
that their failures are always someone else’s fault. Such people form the
perfect base for a proletariat class that can be easily controlled and manipulated.
This no-fault approach, designed to ”create a more just and inclusive society”
has produced many graduates of the secondary public education system who cannot
read, write, or do basic arithmetic at what used to be the eighth-grade level. Just
where do you think these socialist anti-competitive ideas came from.
After two years in this public high school teaching position,
I looked for work elsewhere. I was still a graduate student in theoretical
physics, and when the County Schools Superintendent told me that, if I wanted
to be hired a third year, I would have to shave my beard, it was the last
straw. That and the fact that garbage collectors were getting paid more than high
school teachers, convinced me that I had better move on to bigger and better
things. I have to say, however, that it was very pleasing and satisfying to
learn, two years later, that one of my students, who told me on my very first
day as a math teacher, that he didn’t like math, had graduated Magna cum Laude in
electrical engineering from one of the best engineering schools in the country!
I also ran into one of my students about 10 years after I left public school
teaching for good, who told me that being in my math classes had inspired him to
become a math teacher himself. These successes as a teacher warmed my heart,
but also saddened me because I had felt it necessary to leave such a rewarding
profession.
As might have been expected, this dumbing-down of American
education worked its way all the way up to the university level in one
generation. By the 1980s, when I was working as an environmental engineer overseas,
I found that American engineers and scientists had to prove themselves to the professionals
from other countries because those professionals had seen too many Americans
with graduate degrees who were almost totally ignorant in any subject except
their own narrow area of specialization, and couldn’t write a coherent sentence,
even in their own native language.
I might still think that the massive invasion of Chinese students
hand-picked by the Chinese Communist Party, the dumbing-down of American education
by socialist organizations conflating education with social engineering, and most
of the US media being bought out and controlled by wealthy elitist leftist ideologues,
all happening at the same time, and the release of a man-made virus that has destroyed
the US economy, exactly when the Trump administration was doing serious damage
to the Chinese Communist Party’s growing ability to reach for global dominance,
could all be an amazing coincidence, and the belief that there could be a
global cabal controlling it all, is just a conspiracy theory, except for one
thing: It happens to be true. I have evidence of it from the time I was in
Washington DC as a government systems analyst, and since. And here’s a link to
an interview with Dr. Reiner Fuelimich, a German legal scholar, who is
currently being attacked by leftists for telling the truth. His information is based
on numerous interviews with real scientists, not political-activist scientists
like Dr Andrew Faucci who have sold their souls to the evil of big pharma and
the CCP. He explains very articulately exactly what has been going on for the
past year. Please watch it to the end, especially if you consider yourself to be
a spiritual person and a liberal. It’s a real eye-opener!
