Well caught by him, although agent provocateurs are not new, anywhere. And I don't think America is either a beacon of freedom or the canary in the coalmine for repression. Such is the power of its exported cultural products. Perhaps the greatest fear (for Americans) is it will become an equal country among others, no country is 'No.1' nor should it be. Patriotism is the last refuge of the scoundrel (should be printed on all flags! Like a national memento mori).
True enough. Part of the wave of panic of those who worship at the altar of American triumphalism is their belief that somehow that the U.S. is so different and so special that it can do no wrong, has done no wrong and will never do any wrong, that is as long as its in charge.
Their biggest fear is that the U.S. may become a 2nd World country.
