"The US intentionally denied Russia its own Monroe Doctrine. Did you ever wonder why only the US has a “Monroe Doctrine” and if any other large country like Russia wants their own safe zone like the Monroe Doctrine offers, US media says they are crazy and unrealistic? The US demands North, South and Central America all to itself, no Russian or Chinese military forces, but if Russia wants the same buffer around itself, it must be only deeply delusional or paranoid? After the US led Ukraine Coup of 2014, Ukraine clearly became hostile to Russia (with “four high-ranking members who be legitimately labeled neofascists”).
"Imagine if Russia financed a successful Coup in Mexico which became openly hostile to the US – imagine Russia using “rocket installations in Mexico to conduct live-fire training exercises to practice destroying military targets inside America?” Would the US have any legitimate reason to feel provoked? Of course, the US would demand those installations be removed. Simple. No country can install missiles on our hemisphere, but we can put them wherever we want? This is high-school bully justice, or American foreign policy style. As Putin said in 2021, “Are we putting our rockets on the borders of the United states? No, we’re not. It’s the US with its rockets coming to our doorstep.”

“It was always the women, and above all the young ones, who were the most bigoted adherents of the (revolutionary) Party, the swallowers of slogans, the amateur spies and nosers-out of unorthodoxy…”
–George Orwell, 1984
Christian Britain has been gone a long time. But the Crown finally held a funeral, bestowing King Charles, earlier "The Defender of the Faith," a new royal title: “Protector of the Space for Faith within the Multi-faith Nation.”
A world-historical societal transformation is taking place before our very eyes, and yet few have taken notice. Britain, the erstwhile leader of the Western world and the foundation and source of English-speaking civilization, is in its last days as a free society, and will soon become an Islamic state. Yet despite the mountains of evidence that this transformation is taking place, many will still deny that it is happening at all. They may not even admit it when it overtakes them personally.
“I thought being on the left was a mental problem. The empirical evidence is so overwhelming that it never worked anywhere, and they refused to accept it. But what I discovered is that being on the left is a disease of the soul. The left is built on envy, hatred, resentment, and unequal treatment under the law. They are very violent, and since they have no way or arguments to answer, they go for physical violence.”
Argentinian President Javier Milei
