What Is Left of My Country? by Paul Craig Roberts

I write often of the Wests disapproval of itself and its remaking in a Woke image that rejects Western civilization and insists on the deracination of the white ethnicities that created the civilization. When a civilization loses its belief in itself, or that belief is intentionally destroyed by poisonous ideas, and its defining values are lost, the civilization disappears. Geographically the land still exists, and there are people on it, but they are a different people.

When perversity is normalized and given the moral high ground while normality becomes a target, and when Make America Great Again patriots are labeled "domestic extremists" and "white supremacists," we know that the United States of America has one foot in the grave.

Patriotism is being redefined.

The New Patriotism targets those whose patriotism is based in respect for the United States Constitution and love of freedom.

The New Patriotism is based in the 1619 Project and hatred of America for its alleged racist past. The New Patriots regard the values of the old patriots as values that serve white supremacy and need to be overthrown.

It is difficult to do anything about it. Even mathematics is said to be a racist tool for the suppression of people of color. Those who want a restoration of our traditional values-MAGA Americans-have been demonized and made targets for the FBI, Homeland Security, and prosecutors, and have been stripped of free speech and association. Six hundred of them are in prison because attending a rally in support of President Trump has been turned into an insurrection against democracy.

The Democrats, security agencies, and presstitutes are successful in their coup against the United States of America, because they have stripped their opponents of their voices and their legitimacy.

The United States Constitution has given way to an ideology that defines official narratives serving elite agendas as truth. All questioning of, and dissent from, official narratives is "disinformation," "misinformation," and "destabilizing of society."

Those imposing censorship deny that they are censoring, claiming instead to be protecting the new order from the racist, colonialist old order.

In a recent article announcing his creation of a new nightly news program, Glenn Greenwald explains that the Memory Hole into which dissenting ideas and people are thrown is a creation of neoliberal billionaires, such as George Soros and Pierre Omidyar, and United States, United Kingdom, and EU intelligence agencies. He explains Big Techs complicity, the creation of front groups, and public financing through the United States Department of State, the National Endowment for Democracy, the Pentagon, and other government and private offices of the Woke War against America.

Mr. Greenwald explains the punishments: loss of job, loss of status and visibility, loss of access to financial payment systems, de-platforming, denial of public forums and the right to speak.

When you realize how far this cancer has metastasized, you realize that this coup has been underway for a long time and has its hands on education, media, and almost all public and private institutions. A couple of generations have been indoctrinated with corrosive sentiments against their own country.

Think for a moment about the fate of Wikileaks founder Julian Assange!!

Not only is he not an American citizen subject to United States law, he has not broken any law. Journalists have always published leaked documents.

Daniel Ellsberg, a United States citizen and employee of the Rand Corporation funded by government contracts, released the Pentagon Papers to the New York Times. The New York Times published the document and said that the Pentagon Papers demonstrated that the Johnson Administration had "systematically lied, not only to the public but also to Congress."

An effort was made to charge "espionage" but was dropped as there was no basis to the charge except the embarrassment of the United States government.

That was in 1971.

Today Julian Assange has been kidnapped and incarcerated in one form or another for a decade without trial or conviction-a violation of habeas corpus-by Washington,D.C.s orders to its Swedish and British puppet states, of which Mr. Assange is not a citizen, while Washington,D.C. struggled to create an espionage case against a non-United States citizen who simply exercised the right of a free press to expose government wrong-doing.

That it only took 40 years to deep-six the right, protected by the Constitution and accumulated precedent, of the press to hold government accountable reveals a dramatic collapse of freedom in less than half a lifetime.

We now live in a world in which the "watchdog press" has been turned into an accomplice of the national security state. Instead of watching the government, the media rats on the public to the government.

There has been no outrage by the presstitutes against Washington,D.C.s confiscation of their right and responsibility to hold government accountable.

The media has actively supported the governments persecution of Julian Assange, thereby disavowing its own Constitutionally protected privilege.

Even "Donald Trump deplorables" have succumbed to the official narrative that Julian Assange is a Russian spy. It is extraordinary that even the targets of the anti-American coup are brainwashed by the coups propaganda.
