Neo-cons know their world is dying
The western neo-cons shouting into the void reflect their futility and anger at the dying of their largely white Anglo-Saxon hegemony over the world. Intellectually unequipped to deal with the newly emerging multi-polar world that rightly sees them as infantile examples of humanity senselessly throwing their toys out of their cots, they fulminate furiously their prevarications and delusional mendacities. The problem for them is that the world has moved on past their conventional wisdoms, spread as they overwhelmingly are in the dying legacy media space that they thought would enable them to control the public mind on a permanent basis. Their desire for the continuance of past certainties doesn’t really cut it anymore, as those certainties only ever existed in their own fevered imaginings. Albanese has gone a very little distance towards economic, political and geo-political sanity. Let’s hope he develops the courage to fully join the new multi-polar world.
