Dennis Prager wrote this column to show how far Left the US has become. Culturally, there is no other country as Left wing, except maybe Trudy country in Canada.
At the present time, China is the greatest threat to world stability, Russia is the world’s premier aggressor-nation and Islamist groups are the primary exporters of terror and (religious) totalitarianism.
And, for the first time in history, America is the world’s major exporter of destructive ideas.
This is hard for me to write. One of my books is titled “Still the Best Hope: Why the World Needs American Values to Triumph.” It contrasts American values with leftist values and makes the case that the American value system is the finest ever devised. I define American values — what I call the “American Trinity” — as “Liberty,” “In God We Trust” and “E Pluribus Unum,” (Latin for “From many, one”), the three American mottoes found on American coins and banknotes.
No other country has those three national mottoes. The book maintains that any country can adopt those values and any country that does adopt those values will be a good society. Its citizens will be the freest in the world and that country will prosper.
Indeed, those values are the reason Americans have been the freest people in the world and America has been, far and away, the greatest land of opportunity in human history.
But America has been gradually abandoning its unique value system and is consequently becoming a less free, less humane, less prosperous and more corrupt country. In fact, at this moment, America is no longer the best country, the exceptional country, it has been since 1776. There may not yet be a better country. But that is cold comfort............................................
Europe is now freer and more right wing than the US, at least culturally.
At least in Europe you can stop giving Covid vaccines to young men when they are doing more harm than good because science says this is best, instead of ignoring science due to the jab cult created by the cultural Leftists who use it to further divide society politically. Many countries have banned giving certain vaccines to young men because more are harmed than saved with such things as inflammation of the heart.
At least 13 countries in Europe have rejected the notion that children changing genders as children is a good idea that needs more government funding. At least the countries in Europe don't fund their view on abortion and gender to every country on the planet.
And lastly, at least in Europe you may have the chance for your children to escape the notion that they are either a victim or a victimizer, all based upon the color of their skin. Children in other countries have a fighting chance to know that race means nothing really, nothing at all. It neither makes you better or worse than anyone else.
