Below, just the end section of this excellent column. I'm not adding the block quote symbol to each line (lazy), but the excerpt is indeed all one quotation. Italics are mine.
Western minds think your passport proclaims who you are.
Where you happen to be living.
Where you were born.
I NEED TO HIT THIS HARD, SO PLEASE FOCUS ON WHAT I AM TRYING TO CONVEY.
Russia is home to as many as 190 different ethnic groups, making it one of the most diverse countries in the world. Around 20% of the population is comprised of ethnic minorities.
There are 26 languages which are considered official languages in various regions of Russia, along with the Russian language.
To Russians, their binding tie is not blood or language.
It is their HISTORY AND CULTURE.
Teaching Russian history and culture is a PRIORITY for young Russians.
They BELONG to it as much as IT belongs to them.
Russia is a STORY. A STORY that is still alive and unfolding.
Vibrant and treasured beyond measure.
Now, contrast this with the soulless bureaucrats and cold industrialists of the European Union and the WEF.
Contrast that with what hideous horseshit US.EDU is currently engaged in doing to American schoolchildren.
What I just described regarding what the Russian People value used to describe what Americans also valued about their wildly diverse ethnic make up & amazing culture.
But it is no longer valued.
Every single thing that made America great and wonderful has been devalued, eroded and worn down. DELIBERATELY.
We have been unmoored from our past, pushed away from our values which leaves us no future but one allowed by vile authorities who hate us.
America’s Founding ideals and values are now cast as a THREAT to those treading the corridors of power in DC.
Those DC Denizens have been working to undermine, devalue and corrupt every single aspect of what makes America uniquely powerful upon a World Stage we dominated for over two centuries.
For those claiming “not me! Not MY kids!” Cast a weather eye to Garland’s DoJ where you are being singled out for “special consideration” as DOMESTIC TERRORISTS for not wanting your kids brainwashed or mutilated.
The difference is Russia DEMANDS every Russian child be taught their culture and history.
They ensure that happens.
We have lost our way, pied pipered out into a dark, hellish wilderness by unscrupulous Liars and Thieves.
You are about to find out that the Russian People, while not sharing all aspects of our American interests or ideals, have the Lion’s share of them and that DC, the Globalist Criminals and the SHITBAG complicit Media have cast them as a Phantom Menace to prevent us from ever realizing just how much we have in common as peoples than whatever might divide us.
I expect the developments from this incredible interview to happen fast and thick now millions worldwide has watched it and been exposed to the thoughts and perspective of a Russian Champion fighting the same Globalist Ghouls we are.
Our older people are our greatest national treasure at this time. They remember events and can fill in the context of the time in question. They remember the TRUTH. As I’ve often said here, my father was the smartest man I’ve ever known and that still holds, especially today. He had a 9th grade education but had a PhD in experience and hard knocks. He grew up in Chicago in the gangster era. On the south side. He told me all the truths we are confirming today, i.e. the Fed not being a government institution, JFK was a CIA hit job, etc., etc. Cherish your mom and hang on to everything she tells you. You are blessed to still have her with you.
Yes, I am so grateful to have her in my life still. I will be taking care of her until the day she dies. I took care of my dad when he was dying, and my mom did as well. My mother will get the same treatment. She will die at home peacefully - the Lord willing. I will never put her in an old folks home. She stood by me through all the difficulties in my life, but now we are on the right track and we’re living our best life.
That’s exactly how my family passed. I/we took care of them all. My mom died in a skilled nursing facility but we were all there with her. My dad passed in my living room holding my hand. I thank God that He gave me this solace. My paternal grandmother, Baba, died in the hospital. She was the only one that passed alone. My dad and uncle were there every day. By then they were in their late seventies. My maternal grandmother died at home with my mom and my husband there. I had to stay here while they went to Vegas to be with her. But, she wasn’t alone. Good on you. Our parents are what made us us. I miss them. I’m crying just talking about it.
We will have fond memories that others won’t. Even in the passing of a loved one, it could be a joyful occasion or a miserable one. I’m choosing joy over misery.
What he said! (I'm 72! Kek)
You are the link to truth!
I know I follow the Truth and the Way. I just hope my "link" is as solid as a steel link chain!
