Other good deals in the Modern, Democratic, industrialized world: Japan, which might be the world’s best kept secret, which is where we live, (but it’s practically impossible to get in here), plus I’ve heard good things about Hungary & Poland 😳 of all places.
That said, if America falls to the shadowy, supranational forces that have already taken the EU & the rest of the Anglosphere down so low, then humanity might have to wait a loooooong time for another shot at something like this Western Christian Enlightenment experiment in socioeconomic liberalism, e.g. the US Bill of Rights.
… I see a lot of Westerners running away to the undeveloped & undemocratic world, where their Western passive income takes them far - but without children/ extended family, I’m always left wondering what they’re going to do when they get too old to take care of themselves 🤔🤔🤔
We just had Canada day up here and the red and white flags are everywhere around town. Red and white flowers were planted, parades and ceremonies occurred around the town but I find myself wondering how proud I am to be Canadian. I totally identify with the critical thinkers, the fighters who are speaking up, or opting out, or working for change and accountability as you mention in your article, but not very many are willing to step up and out of their media induced views.
The depth of betrayal of our leaders, policy makers, lawmakers and other elites during covid has quietly festered despite all the restrictions and mandates being lifted. The new narrative about Trump, the bad guy, causing all our problems is their feeble attempt to drum up patriotism and forget how we got here. Many are still under the spell of media propaganda, not questioning, not challenging the status quo.
I recently met Tamara Lich, who helped organize the freedom convoy, and was very moved to hear her spellbinding story of the convoy leading up to her arrest and incarceration. I felt the most profound gratitude for her conviction and courage despite the hardships and obstacles she endured and is still enduring.
I'm so proud of her and the others that helped bring down the tyranny. She inspires me and reinforces my rebel convictions.
A big part of it has been an effort to paint the country as the worst. It has been a concentrated public relations campaign that has gone on for decades.
It has been directed at the country in many ways. Look back at stupid campaigns that went on like "You didn't build that." Well, those things didn't spring up from the ether. Yes, there have been problems and things that shouldn't have been done. We could go over a litany of the missteps along the way. The same can be said about anywhere else.
No, we are not living in a perfect country. Guess what? It is made and run by people who are all imperfect. The detractors try to hold us to the standards from utopian fantasy. It doesn't matter if it is das Kapital, Star Trek, or any other fictionalized source of choice. They are quick to point out problems but fail to offer real solutions that actually solve the problems beyond taking more money and freedoms from people that they don't like. Some problems, their solutions only make things worse.
Possibly the worst are the ones that push Marxism, ignoring the complete and utter failure that has come about every time it was implemented at the cost of hundreds of millions of lives. Faced with those failures, they keep their stupid fantasy alive by dismissing the failures as bad implementation.
They shout out "Democracy!" all the while pushing for authoritarian decrees. I guess it is only a good thing when what they want is popular but should be avoided when they don't like what is popular. They are all for "Choice" and "Freedom" when it suits them but at the same time want government sanctions for people choose something other than what they want. "My body, My Choice" seemingly only applies to abortions and smoking pot. Free speech is only for saying things that they agree with.

It's a new kind of patriotism rising up.
