| | The liberal world order is an effort to end [[fossil fuel]] consumption and implement the [[World Economic Forum]]'s [[Great Reset]] and [[Build Back Better]] program through the [[Green New Deal]] and [[demonizing]] [[Russia]] and [[Putin]]. The goal is to get rid of private cars and turn people into insectivores with the [[war on cow farts]]. | | The liberal world order is an effort to end [[fossil fuel]] consumption and implement the [[World Economic Forum]]'s [[Great Reset]] and [[Build Back Better]] program through the [[Green New Deal]] and [[demonizing]] [[Russia]] and [[Putin]].

| | + | Dr. Rob Campbell wrote that the 'rules based order' came into existence following the collapse of the Soviet Union. [[Liberal triumphalism]] reveled in the words of [[Francis Fukuyama]] declaring 'the end of history'. Whereas [[Karl Marx]] theorized that the higher form of [[socialism]] (i.e. [[communism]]) will mark the end of historical development, Fukuyama believed that the collapse of the Soviet system demonstrated that [[capitalism]] was the pinnacle of development. Dr. Campbell noted, "this sort of thinking is more [[ideological]] than it is [[philosophical]] or [[scientific]]. Neither [[liberal]]s nor [[Marxist]]s can discount the possibility that other forms of development could occur in the future. It’s just [[dogma]] really." |

| | + | In practice, the so called 'rules based order' is based on a nebulous and conflicting set of rules which allow the [[US]] and [[the West]] to pick and choose rules that suit its objectives. Thus, for example, the wishes of [[minority |
| | + | minorities]] to become separate from their [[narion state|state]] could conflict with another rule which values territorial integrity. In the [[Serbian war]] (1998/99), the US promoted the first rule in allowing [[Kosovo]] to be created as an independent state in spite of the fact that this broke the rule relating to the inviolability of [[Serbia]]'s territorial integrity. Yet in [[Crimean Annexation]], after the [[CIA]] backed [[Maidan coup]], it opposed the [[human rights|rights]] of minorities to break with their state. |

| | + | This erroneous thinking permeated the leadership of the [[Western alliance|Western world]] giving it a [[false]] sense of its [[morality]] as it attempted to impose [[liberal values]] on errant neighbors. The [[US]] could now boast that it was the only [[superpower]]. The system of [[diplomacy]] that had characterized [[international relations]] for centuries was replaced by a system based on certain moral assumptions that were thought to be Universal. Liberals told other nations that it must extend rights to minority groups, including the [[LGBT]] movement, or that it must be governed by liberal democratic political systems similar to the [[Western alliance|Western model]]. |
| | + | |
| | + | Even more absurd, was the expectation that the developing world should conform to [[energy]] policies based on a dubious assumption that human activities, including the production of [[carbon dioxide]] in [[fossil fuel]]s, was causing catastrophic [[global warming]]. This forced many [[African]] nations into [[poverty]]. The West was trying to impose its [[morality]] and its [[pseudoscience]] onto the rest of the planet whose countries were rewarded (e.g. [[IMF]] loans) or punished (e.g. [[economic sanctions]]) in accordance with their conformity to all this nonsense. Over the years, the nonsense became more and more ridiculous as [[wokeness]] took hold. |
| | + | |
| | + | The fact that a number of nations, hitherto economically inferior to the West, were growing rapidly, meant that the balance of economic power in the world was shifting towards these nations (i.e. e.g. [[China]], [[Brazil]], [[Iran]] and [[India]]). China’s [[Belt and Road]] initiative was part of this. Such developments cannot be prevented by the forceful methods of Western 'democracies'. Faced with a challenge from [[Russia]], with support from other [[BRICS]] nations, [[the West]], having abandoned [[diplomacy]], could respond only with force: by imposing sanctions, by making threats and by supporting its [[proxy war]]s to the point of speeding up its own demise. |
