(7,794 posts)If you were trained to destabilize western nations, every western nation is a nail. Well,..............that's what the hammer thinks about everything. Hammers don't do intelligence. It's just an adage comparison montage thing.
Russia is a society inured to the effects of propaganda. They simply believe nothing. That's how Putin has our number (at least 40%, enough to destabilize our democracy, government and our society). We have too many folks who actually believe total BS is "NEWS", as if it came right from Walter Cronkite's desk.
The Russian people have long relied on distilled spirits to strengthen their ability to persevere. Americans are amateurs at mass alcoholism. It will be our downfall, potatoes used for French fries. What a misallocation of resources. The learning curve will be painful.
Planetary population growth and its associated stresses will also grow ever more painful.
