For a long time, America was seen as a champion of freedom by many people around the world. Nowadays, America openly supports dictatorships, abandons citizens caught in predicaments overseas, and even punishes people for voicing their opinion or publishing information that exposes crimes by government officials. If US leaders & politicians stand to lose anything, they will essentially abandon responsibilities to their citizens in order to keep what they have. If they stand to gain anything, again, they will abandon responsibilities to their constituents in order to gain it. Western nations have undoubtedly sold out & abandoned their citizens in the name of US dollars.
Thanks to greed & defiance, it is nearly impossible to bring meaningful reforms into policy. Polls show that approval ratings for President Biden are lower than they have ever been. The decline of the US started a long time ago, but the US government usually doesn’t abandon its own citizens (unless they are black, hispanic, asian, native or Muslim).
However, the US does form alliances with countries who abandon their citizens; even their own soldiers. The Palestinian government in the Gaza strip captured 4 Israeli soldiers, and has been trying to negotiate a prisoner swap with Israel for years. Considering this, it should be no suprise that the US is abandoning its citizens now. A basketball star named Brittney Griner is held in Russian custody for bringing marijuana with her on the flight into Russia. Apparently the US has made offers to the Russian gov’t, but none that were considered. On top of that, the Russians haven’t even stated that progress is being made.
The most important victim of careless American policy is probably Julian Assange. As most people probably know, Julian Assange was a journalist who documented communications of high-ranking government officials. He is being held in the UK and they are set to extradite him to the US. He will probably never be released.
The US government considers Assange a traitor, but elected officials should not be committing crimes or keeping any other important information away from the public. Either way, the harsh treatment that innocent people receive at the hands of government officials does not have the same effect that they think.
When good-natured people see police committing excessive use of force or some other offense, they are either outraged or afraid for their life. Other people with no conscience support law enforcement unconditionally, but these people are the worst elements of society. Their character shows whenever we have a victim like Eric Garner, for example. No innocent person is comfortable being choked to death, or even watching someone else choked to death. However, the US is choking their own citizens with taxes & murdering Muslim families overseas, expecting cozy relations with the quickly growing Muslim world.
Western countries cannot maintain positive relations with their citizens and other countries if they abandon all responsibility & accountability toward their citizens.
The best people are leaving the US, and more people will probably leave in the future. Although there is an outstanding opportunity to bring reforms into US government policy, the US government is too big to expect anything good to happen without a civil war happening first. After all, those in power have really abandoned their responsibilities to us. Americans are routinely told lies, at both the local & federal levels.
The best that could happen is that people begin to organize on the local level & take control in cities where officials have overstepped their boundaries & forgot about the people relying on them. That way, nobody dies & the influence might grow slowly enough to sneak under the radar of the US government & actually materialize before it is sabotaged.
