The Uninted States is Culturally Overstreched

I always wondered why the US took fifty years, after the Spanish-American War ended to give San Juan Bautista ─aka Puerto Rico ─ self goverment. In other words, San Juan had a military goverment all the way to 1952. What happened? What was the issue? There are all sorts of “going around Harvey’s Barn” answers and none of them true.

The main reason San Juan didn’t have self goverment, was because the people were not trusted in Washington. Acculturation is something that doesn’t happen overnight, it takes time, relationships, experiences, memories, history. Washington realized that in San Juan, what they had were a bunch of Catholics, monarchists, loyal to Spain. I’m posting a video below so that people get an idea of San Juan in 1929. The people that you see are still doing pledges of allegiance to the Spanish flag. My word, from Mexico to Argentina people had their masonic revolutions and independence, and San Juan in 1929 people are still kissing the Spanish flag.

Loyalty is a virtue there is nothing to be ashamed. That loyalty is now with the United States of America, took more than a century for that to happen. My mother who is 80 years old, thinks America is overstretched, that the country cultural limits should have stopped in San Juan. In other words, she thinks the final frontier of the American Empire should have ended in the Caribbean.

I think the United States is in a cultural mess and disaster. We are all suffering this, too much diversity folks. There are more Vietnamese living in the States than people in San Juan. How in the world San Juan is supposed to interact? Dr. Farrell have mentioned this on several occasions, America have not had the chance to develop it’s own culture like Italy, Spain, Germany, etc. Is constant migration, constant war, constant grift, 20,000 versions of biblical Christianity. We need a break.

The US needs to put the house in order, do whatever needs to happen. People in San Juan are very worried because the last thing they want to see is a breakup of the US. Central and South America are a balkanized mess we don’t need another in the north. There are geopolitical concerns in San Juan and quiet frankly we see America entangled in a bunch of nonsense. The Ukraine War, Israel Mess, China, etc.

Folks, look at that video carefully, and tell me if Bible Rapture Greater Israel is going to fly with those people. I guarantee you, back in 1929 any church doing that would be burned to the ground. I don’t know how America is going to pull this, but we need to somehow have a common culture to function.

Thank you for the video! Looks like San Juan was beautiful back then! America has indeed become “entangled in a bunch of nonsense!” I have only been able to get glimpses of a Puerto Rican understanding of things through reading Boriquagato, El Gato Malo, until now from the planscamdemic on. He was part of the group of experts like Kevin McKernan, JikkyLeaks, etc. who were taking down all the ridiculous phony statistics and prognostications.
I read him the other day and he is NOT happy with Trump at all! and is in no way a leftist or left sympathizer. No idea how religious he is, but he chooses to live in San Juan when he could, I am sure, live anywhere in U.S. And I don’t think he falls for the Greater Israel nonsense.

Europe today is just as balkanised as the US for the same reasons, divide and let them fight to obfuscate all shenanigans the powers can get away with in their aim for total slavery and control. All countries should have tight borders and immigration laws practised. Deportation is all good and well for the resent arrivals, and societies should have a decent discussion on what “resent” wil mean. I am afraid we will have to work out amongst ourselves how as a melting pot we can live together. People that have been here for 40-50 years or longer with progeny can’t be just ousted!

When left to our own devises this usually happens naturally. Same cultures form groups and shield themselves from other cultures. It is the heavely backed NGO’s that instagate & promote all hate and unrest & upheavel! They should be dealt with and forbidden.

When it comes to Christianity, why did we let the tale of the old testament get so prevalent? I hardly hear anything from the new testament which is all about Christ! Ofcourse it serves the powers to only tell the tale of Enki & Hebrews so we can reenact the coming of Christ that has been sold as the second coming and further packaged in end times prophesies as a prop to validity.

In my experience, hate and prejudice is learned behavior. That is why I like Catherine Austin Fitts “coming clean” document so much. I find that produced document far more valuable then all her banking experience. When it comes to pushing integrity as high as possible, she is the real deal.

We still do Spanish ceremonies but is now for tourist purposes. Re-enactment acting has become now a tourist attraction. Some people take it quiet seriously. The attitude in San Juan toward Trump is similar to Giza member Scarmoge “Meet the new boss same as the old boss.” What concerns people in San Juan is a breakup of the US. The mentality in San Juan has always been that the breakup of the Spanish empire was a big mistake and folks don’t want that mess happening in America.

In Europe if the people had read Don Quixote instead of Hegel or Kant, they would have been spared the First and Second World Wars. Because they studied a philosophy that is completely out of touch with reality. Sooner or later an ideology creeps in and creates all sorts of problems.

Don Quixote’s lesson is quiet simple yet profound, that blind idealism leads to disaster. If you were to talk to people in San Juan in 1890 or 1929, those people didn’t had a national identity and neither an ideology in any modern sense. They were Catholics and that’s about it, that’s all they needed. They would view any ideology as idolatry.

I like Don Quixote story. The whole west can go “could have, should have”. That is all water under the bridge. Was not alive during Hegel or Kant and never red or learned of them. Stumbled on Joseph’s work and went of on self study, I am bottom down simple working class. Putting food on the table was and still is the credo.

People are used and manupulated, yesterday as today. Blame games won’t help today’s situation nor chanting over who will hit rock bottom first, Europe or the USA. Both continents managed putting in power the most backwards low of the low. Sick psychopaths are running both continents whatever we have read in the past or not.

Staying safe as keeping our loved ones safe by navigating through the dangers is primordial, not just lamenting how we got here. If we get a chance to change things politically and socially, absolutely do it also.

Hope Kenny, your family is safe and doing well.

Then they were wiser than many. It should be enough, for people of faith. But unfortunately, people in the continental U.S. love their “teams” to the point of feeling they have won, when their party wins, even though often they have not won at all.

Also wise observation, Neru. I get caught up in some of the nonsense, then return to simpler living. Absolutely - someone on X/Twitter yesterday said before anyone takes office, he or she should have to pass a test for sociopathy/psychopathy. Clears out the field.

I resently disengaged from watching opinion tube and or written pieces. I years ago disengaged from telly for that reason and cought myself repeating all that thru the interrnet. Echochambering, dopamine hits are so alluring! Went back to basics, gardening and just gizadeathstar and solari and reading good books.

Good idea, back to the basics…When I was younger I used to be careless, then when I got older I cared, now at this age I’m careful about what I care about and take care of those things and ideas.
