Our approach to the US has been admiration, envy, resentment, and, simultaneously, an inferiority and superiority complex but now: Fear.
It’s no wonder, then, that the energy and national character of the U.S. are admired and envied throughout the world … other than in Europe, perhaps, or in China and Russia, certainly, or in the Central or South American countries in which the U.S. has engineered coups, which would be most of them, or in Iran, Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, Vietnam or Serbia, or in most Muslim countries, for the matter, or in Africa, given the U.S.
There is also the equally sobering reality that, in my experience, I would now have to say that the U.S. — how do I put this? — has completely lost its s–t. But there he was in January — you know, just musing, just asking questions, as he would have it — about resuscitating Manifest Destiny, of invading America’s staunchest ally and, although this was never said, and although it was understood since invasions tend to be messy affairs, of killing Canadians.
What mattered was that he said it. What mattered was that he pushed the envelope yet again to further normalize truly dangerous ideas. What mattered was that it pandered to America’s huge and growing class of ignoranti, whose numbers — fuelled by lies, racism, class divide, wing-nut conspiracy theories, a poisonous social media, and an education system under siege — have grown so large they put a grifter and psychopathic liar in the White House.
