Generals and DOD officials must be in the midst of a panicked meeting within the inner sanctum of the Pentagon, because a crack team of Russian investigative journalists have just exposed the darkest and most potent secret of American world power: sex.
Read and learn:
Ever since the end of World War 2, America has controlled the world using three tools-manipulations, sex and money. These three factors have been responsible for the continual dominance of the American society above other societies across the world…
Look at the story of Afghanistan, and how the American government has successfully manipulated the world. They created the so-called Taliban resistance, and they currently run it. Every single so-called surprise attack by the Taliban on NATO or American military installments are all pre-planned by the American government…
Wonder why Pakistan has failed to launch a full-blown attack on the Taliban? It’s very simple, they have been instructed not to.
Don’t be surprised with Americas manipulative prowess, it’s in virtually all countries across the world. They support ruling governments and then create and sponsor one or more oppositions so they keep the balance of power within their control…
Sex is a big success tool in regards to America’s success so far in terms of dominating the world. For the last five decades, the American government has successfully created a world where sex is in control of virtually everything you can talk about. Using the media, they have successfully developed, grown and forced the act of sex worship in virtually every country across the world.
By creating sex symbols, who are sponsored and obedient to the American government, the world population has been controlled for decades and is still been controlled. Kim Khadashian [sic] is an example of a sex symbol, she became a big success so-called star after her sex tape was supposedly leaked to the world. It was all pre-planned, there were no leaks. She was been moulded into a sex symbol to serve the imperialistic aims of the US. I use the term ‘so-called’ because I never knew about her until a couple months back.
This isn’t an article from Weekly World News or The Onion, though the editors of both journals probably wish they had the scoop; Pravda Online (pravda means truth in Russian) is run by former employees of the newspaper of the same name, a tabloid generally accepted as the mouthpiece of the Communist Party. Its headlines are often sensational and regularly anti-American and anti-NATO. Some examples: “Three giant spaceships to attack Earth in 2012?” and “Half-human creatures: What is going on?”
This will seem amusing to most Americans, easily dismissible as the ramblings of a sensationalist newspaper pandering to a Russian public thirsty for ridiculous stories.
But Pravda, bless its heart, is read by millions of Russians, and an untold number of Russians — whether Pravda readers or not, citizens or government officials — believe the anti-American propaganda they read. In the Middle East, in China and in many other places around the world, ideas like this are taken seriously and are gravely debated by intellectuals, politicians and by ordinary people trying to figure out why the world works the way it does.
Our own government and American citizens should remember this — there are lots of people and governments out there who see American plots in every action abroad and who think we are more clever, more powerful and more wicked than we are. American leaders need to be aware of these narratives in order to avoid inadvertently feeding into them, and American diplomats and soldiers need to understand how anti-Americanism — no matter how paranoid or delusional — really works among the populations they encounter. In Pakistan in particular, the hothouse atmosphere of anti-American conspiracy theory thinking is so pervasive and universal that it is a serious factor in the bilateral relationship.
In some cases, material like this is produced deliberately by people who have a political point in mind, often either to counter US influence in some way or to build nationalist political movements and cultural currents in their own country. In other cases, this kind of material represents the honest efforts of minds, more or less sound as the case may be, to form a theory of the world without enough knowledge or experience — somewhat akin to the coffeehouse ravings one can hear in the US from birthers, truthers, black helicopterists, OWS corporate conspiracy experts and the like.
And as in the case of this Pravda piece, such conspiracy theories often point to realities in the world (the exploitation of sexuality in capitalist entertainment and commercialism and the identity of the United States as a leading capitalist power and beneficiary of capitalist world dominance) even if they are unable to interpret them intelligently or disentangle causation and correlation.
Behind such theories usually lurks a great deal of fear. I was once interviewed on a radio show and asked by a caller if I knew that then Fed chairman Paul Volcker was a member of the Communist Party. I answered that I knew Mr. Volcker and that he’d never mentioned this to me, but that if it was true, I had only one piece of advice for the caller: join the Party now. If the Communists were so good that they had secretly recruited the chair of the Federal Reserve, it was game over and time to make peace with our new Red masters.
In the same way, if America really has discovered a way to use sex to control the world, our enemies are pretty much forked, so to speak. If American world power is going to last as long as people like looking at sexy people and hearing gossip about sexy movie stars, it will be a long time before the sun of American power sets.
Conspiracy theories give true believers the illusion of power by offering a “secret” and, to believers, a convincing account of how the world works; but they simultaneously disempower the believers because they buy into a narrative in which the Powers are so smart, so well-organized and so far-sighted that nothing short of an apocalyptic meltdown will ever bring them down. Belief in conspiracy theories is less a sign of organizing for social change than it is a psychological mechanism that helps people come to grips with their lack of control over the forces shaping their lives.
Come to think of it, America may be using two forces to render the enemies of our system ineffective and weak. One is sex; the other is conspiracy theories.
Thanks, Pravda, for making the American Empire a little stronger, a little more impervious to assault. Keep up the good work; your check is in the mail.
