Non-interventionist profits
We haven't always been hopelessly crazy.
Our current infinite looniness echoes our condition exactly 100 years ago. In 1917 all of our media and schools and churches were squawking the same verbatim overmodulated globalist evil, aimed at Germany. Anyone who questioned the squawk was jailed. The only difference is the target, though our
ACTIONS in 1918 indicate that our infinitely evil dysgovernment was primarily interested in working WITH Germany to obliterate Russia. We had to get the Krauts under control first.
Between 1920 and 1933 we gradually RECOVERED from our hopeless idiocy. I still don't know how this happened. Most of Wilson's globalist bureaucracy was dismantled, violating Parkinson's Law which requires bureaucracies to grow exponentially after their mission is done. We turned inward and spent all of our energy on an idiotic bubble. When we reached the end of that bottle, we FINALLY acquired sanity, and remained sane from 3/4/33 to 4/12/45. Sanity had enough inertia to remain in control for a year or so, until Globalists got reorganized and
grabbed all the levers again.
Lately I've been pointing out examples of NON-INTERVENTIONIST thinking and writing and media from our brief lucid interval, in the hope that something will lead to a rediscovery of the cure.
Example 1.
Example 2.
Example 3.
Example 4.
I've also pointed often to the intentional cultivation of SHORTWAVE bands on radios during the lucid interval, meant to help ordinary Americans understand the world. NOT CONQUER THE WORLD, UNDERSTAND THE WORLD.
Here's a beautiful new example of the nexus. Non-intervention was PROFITABLE.
From a
1934 GE brochure boosting the advantages of radios with a shortwave band:
Germany:
Italy:
Russia:
Note the OBJECTIVE LANGUAGE and the EMPATHETIC UNDERSTANDING that other people had different ways of doing things. Our job was not to delete heresy but to appreciate variety, and GE wanted to MAKE MONEY from this appreciation.
Now our corporations, especially including GE, are no longer in business to make money; their sole goal is to obliterate the universe.
