The end of the United States

There are actually people who say that the United States is actually under judgement, to the point of facing more forthcoming disasters for its unrepentant sins over time. There are also others who say that America is Mystery Babylon, the nation-state said to corrupt the entire planet with its abominations. If this is true then this explains why America’s in such a peculiar position to popularise a lot of things, though unfortunately most of them are bad, despite America having a lot of practising Christians for a western nation at this point. Kind of double-minded that it risks civil instability at this point, professing to be Christian but mired in deep vice. Kind of terrible to actually be in America, given the spiritual state it’s in.

Add to that it was something of a hyperpower back in the 1990s and 2000s, which is a step above a superpower really, especially terms of sheer power and influence over the world. A period of relative uninterrupted unipolarity, which makes its ability to corrupt the planet look much worse in hindsight, particularly when it comes to popularising pornography and the like. There are people who say that what appears to be globalisation is really Americanisation, much moreso when America was a proper superpower at the height of its glory. It’s kind of mind-boggling to think that America houses both prominent Christian ministries and a big porn industry, that it truly is deserving of the moniker of Mystery Babylon, given it appears to whore itself out to anything and everything ungodly, getting others drunk on its wine just the same.

Whilst it’s true that both China and Russia aren’t any better, one can’t help but wonder if the loss or at least minimalisation of American influence would result in any real globalisation, even for a while given it’s going to take a lot of countries’ influences to make up for the loss of any detectable American influence in other lives and places. It makes sense as America contains both the world’s largest publishing and music industries respectively that it’s going to take many other countries’ influences to make up for losses in countries heavily allied to the US, whether if it’s China and the rest of East Asia doing this to the Philippines or Russia and its allies to Canada. It remains to be seen if Canadian publishers are going to translate Estonian, Latvian, Lithuanian, Swedish and Norwegian comics, to make up for the loss of their US counterparts.

Or if Philippine publishers are going to translate Chinese, Indonesian, Vietnamese, Malaysian, Thai and Cambodian comics just the same, the loss is going to be rather big in these given our strong ties to the US but if it’s going to get undone in the Philippines, it would be wiser to look up to our closest neighbours to make up for a massive loss of US influence here. It would be no different with music and food really that turning to substitutes would be the wiser, though more awkward choice given we want the real thing real badly (that’s how it is with me when it comes to sermons and devotionals). It’s not something we want but we have to do to make up for a loss, even if we want the real thing real badly that it’s going to hurt. It’s like this with me when it comes to sermons that it’s kind of awkward turning to substitutes if something doesn’t play sermons as expected, so it hurts as much as it helps to cope with it.

It would be no different with a lot of Filipinos and even Canadians if American publishers like Marvel Comics actually not only cease to be popular, but also cease to be in operation as well for good that it would be really awkward turning to viable substitutes when we want the real thing real badly. Whilst it’s true that God does restore things better and greater than they were before as I’ve encountered this multiple times over, the loss of American influence throughout the world would be a somewhat different matter given the US is Mystery Babylon. Substitutes can and do grow on us if they’re the only options around, as it is with me when it comes to a certain devotional website lately.

This could also be the case for both the Philippines and Canada when it comes to alternative superpowers like China and Russia respectively, though the process is going to be awkward in the meantime. Even then American influence is already in the process of being undone throughout the planet, albeit one that may continue to go on in very unexpected ways. There was something like CNN Philippines but that’s not going to be the last American thing to be undone in the Philippines, as there’ll be more to come in the future. When coupled with both an incoming WWIII and a forthcoming civil war on American soil in years, that it seems America will not remain the same in a good way, it may be getting removed even by now.

New World Order

I’ve been prophesising that after God’s finished with the United States, there will be a new world order consisting of multiple superpowers. But most especially China and Russia being the biggest of the superpowers, given how much territories these two will have as well as the accompanying clout. China will form a global east, especially a Greater China consisting of itself and the rest of East Asia (both all of Northeast and Southeast Asia), coupled with a new Eastern bloc consisting of most African countries (that is the African countries barring South Africa) and Oceania (Australia, New Zealand, the other islands). Russia will constitute the new global west, consisting of itself and its myriad commonwealths and protectorates (Canada and all of Europe), and its allies in some parts of West Asia and Latin America.

Canada will be singled out as Russia’s only North American territory it has left, given America will disappear over time or even if it were to remain faintly recognisable, it would be deeply uninhabitable as huge parts of it are either drowned or irradiated. There are actually prophecies of it getting bombed or nuked by its allies, fulfilling a part in the Bible where Babylon became uninhabitable just the same. Even if it meant the original Babylon, but what the Bible said before is still applicable every time and any time in whatever fashion it manifests itself as (the time about consequences got me whacked by my brother before). This is also due to my intercessions as I don’t want Canada to end up like America, but given its own sins, it will be judged and be turned into part of Russia in some way as well.

Mostly for following America a lot that once Russia invades Canada that it will be deAmericanised in a very aggressive fashion, though less severe than what America will be getting. This will primarily concern matters of political correctness, given how politically incorrect Russia comes off as compared to America and its allies (the old west). The new Canada would be Russianised and be made open to degrees of political incorrectness (i.e. intolerant of LGBT lifestyles, polyamory and the like), not necessarily any less English speaking but that its future prime minister will be very sympathetic to Russia enough to consent to joining it after getting invaded. Thus begins the Russification of Canada, as well as all of Europe. But this makes one wonder about the sinicisation of the Philippines.

This is admittedly something that I wanted because I don’t like how westernised the Philippines is, but this will be answered in a way that much of American influence is permanently revoked here. The Philippines will no longer be bilingual in Tagalog and English, but rather Tagalog and Mandarin instead, made less politically correct (given the way China is to America), receptive to Chinese style socialism and quite heavily easternised in culture and politics. Maybe not immediately, though sooner than expected, as God’s set to revoke American influence wherever it went. A very different Philippines that’s actually heavily modelled after China in most ways, with the Communist party becoming the dominant political party from then on.

Whatever happens is a different Canada and a different Philippines, the Philippines will be permanently and deeply sinicised just as Canada will be permanently and deeply Russianised, but as a result of being close American allies that these ties will be undone (though it’s on its way in Canada). There are even prophecies of America actively persecuting Christians, despite America boasting about its past as a Christian colony, that makes for a Kafkasque transformation. But then again America stopped being loyal to God, whoring itself to unholy ideologies and beliefs, that it will be destroyed and finished eventually.

Burning down the house

Somebody had a prophetic dream of real estate in America going down as well, where such luxurious homes become so cheap even somebody from what others call the developing world will buy one themselves. If because these are so ridiculously cheap as to be discountable from the get-go, it seemed to do with the American dream being kind of idolatrous and built on material greed, which is ultimately transistory, rather than looking to eternal homes and treasures in Heaven. Not that there’s anything wrong with having a nice house to be in, but there’s something wrong about the way the American way of life is built on materialism and consumerism that jars with the Biblical stance being opposed to it.

I remember this sermon about Chester Bennington is that despite having a lot in life, he never seemed truly happy for long as to end his life. It’s like this with King Solomon, he was given a lot in life but it’s something that never made him actually happy, so full of regret as to write Ecclesiastes later on. To give you an idea of how transistory material wealth is, Job lost a lot of the things he cherished in life and said that what the Lord gives, he also takes back. Though he did get his riches restored eventually, it’s still telling how transistory material wealth really is. It’s like this with one of my cousins who actually suffers from depression, despite having a lot in life she lost relatives and a husband along the way, sometimes due to her own misdeeds.

I underwent many of the same things as she did, though it’s true God can give back better than what I lost, but material possessions will always be transitory. A time to kill and a time to live, so to paraphrase from King Solomon himself. The American dream kind of upends this, despite America being ostensibly formed as a Christian colony, because it’s based on the thought of material permanence and material attainment. The whole white picket fence thing, upward mobility and all that jazz, it’s turning out to be unattainable for other Americans at this point. Is it worth attaining the American dream when it’s becoming more and more out of reach with most people? At this point, the American economy isn’t doing well and Americans have grown thriftier.

Somebody else had a prophecy of closed fast food restaurants throughout America, though this may technically spell the end of fast food in America, people will still find ways of getting food from. Albeit through very controversial means like cannibalism and even eating pets, things they charge foreign cultures with are the things they’ll inevitably turn to. Don’t judge or be judged yourself, as it is me before with my family. (Another also had the same prophecy.) One would grimly wonder if dog meat would become as all-American as apple pie, as soon as China gives up on the same altogether and so do other East Asian countries like Indonesia, Vietnam and the Philippines, talk about role reversals that it’s Americans who’re this desperate to eat dogs this time.

It’s Americans who’ll be ridiculed for eating dogs, as soon as more and more East Asians treat dogs like family members. There’s also been some talk about America imposing its values and worldview onto other peoples, cultures and nations, wherein the afformented globalisation of the 1990s and 2000s is really Americanisation. Around the time America became the sole superpower of the world enough to become a hyperpower, that’s a step above a superpower. That’s not to say there weren’t any superpowers in the past before, but that it was a multipolar world before and it’s going back to its multipolar days this time around. For a time being in the 20th century, it was a bipolar world between Russia and America. If America is Mystery Babylon, then its ascendancy to a brief hyperpower status shouldn’t be surprising.

In the sense that America reigns as a queen who thinks it’ll never experience sorrow and misfortune on its own grounds, though unfortunately due to its hubris it’s going to decline real badly. In fact it’s already declining and its influence is declining in a number of places at present like Canada, Europe and West Asia, though it remains to be seen if the rest of East Asia will follow suit. It would be even more shocking to think that a new global west will emerge, albeit one that’s highly tied to Russia with all the European countries and Canada as its vassal states. Celestial has repeatedly prophesised this that Russia will conquer the rest of Europe for its own backsliding and apostasy, that ultimately they’ve reaped the wind and now become part of the storm.

It will do the same to Canada, which is what I kind of prayed for. Though God will judge both Russia and China in due time, although I suspect others may’ve wanted these countries to repent just the same, but with America being Mystery Babylon that it’s going to play a hand in popularising and even glorifying the same things condemned in the Bible. It’s like the thing with animation, America didn’t invent the medium. But it did refine and codify it the way its originators like France didn’t get to early on, this is particularly evident with the Walt Disney Company introducing and popularising the full animation school. Disney animators weren’t just interested in using rotoscoping for more lifelike movements, they kind of popularised it in the search for more believable movements that Russia’s Soyuzmultfilm emulated it in some of its productions.

Limited animation also originated in America that eventually spread to other countries like Japan, so we can assume that America also played a helping hand in popularising the more dubious things in life. Ethical nonmonogamy (which is really adultery) existed in the past before, whether as concubinage, polygamy or polyandry, but what America’s doing is to popularise certain forms of it (especially polyamory) and have other countries emulate it just the same. My father said that civilisations like America get more degenerate the more they decline, to the extent that America has gone too far with a lot of things as to warrant its own premature death. If you can’t offend God and live, this is the fate of America. The end of Babylon the Great as we know it.

Even if America were to remain in some way for long, it will never go back to being a powerful country. It’s transgressed to the point of no return, so begins the end of the American dream.

Don’t Walk Like An Egyptian

It turns out that my prayer to get Canada to join Russia has been answered in a way, but this has to do with Canada being both America’s ally and a waystation for the Russians to get to Mystery Babylon, which means the things that make America superpower will get undermined. If God is a god of the impossible, then he will find a way to undermine America’s standing as a superpower, especially to judge it and its allies for all their wrongdoings. Somebody else compared Canada to Egypt in that both of them are corrupt and then get given over to their enemies, but with America being the worst of them all. America might fare worse by becoming an extension of Russia itself, Canada would become one of many Russian protectorates by then.

Both of them will be aggressively Russified but most especially America, that if America is Babylon then this would make Russia Persia and Canada Egypt (a waystation to convenience God’s comeuppance for America with). To further humiliate the United States, Russia will give Alaska over to Canada. Canada would also be subjected to Russian influence but will be treated practically like a European country, albeit one that’s given a government modelled after Russia’s own. Whilst Canada might appear to stop being a British commonwealth by then, that doesn’t mean it’ll truly become independent. Maybe the new Canadian government wouldn’t be exactly similar to Russia, but that it’ll become a Russian vassal state like with both Britain and Ireland.

But then again the Russian government would also change over time, thus taking a page from the Soviet playbook and then updating it for the 2020s, the new Canadian ministry would be a modified version of its Soviet counterpart. The British and Irish governments (and the rest of Europe) would appear to be intact except that their prime ministers are there to follow Russian orders, even the monarchies of Spain, the Netherlands, Belgium, Sweden, Liechenstein, Luxembourg, Norway, Denmark and Britain will really be following Russian orders just the same. Canada might appear to stop being a British Commonwealth, but that’s on paper and in reality it’s really become one of many Russian protectorates, albeit one that appears to have its first president. In reality, it’s a mirror of Russian’s own but subjugated by Russia itself.

Canada would appear to have kept its culture intact compared to America, but even then it will change over time when Russia does invade and rule over it in a way, perhaps in ways that are kind of shocking. Canada might still be bilingual in English and French, but with Russian having become the lingua franca of all the Russian protectorates. When Canada and Europe both fall to Russia, Russia will do anything to further revoke American influence there. This includes reinstating anti-LGBT laws, among many other things, though Russia might also change for the worst. Even then both Canada and America won’t remain the same when Russia takes over both of them, though it’ll be America that’ll be changed the most. Canada will most likely be governed the same way Russians would to its European counterparts.

And even then Canada will be Russified over time.

I Kissed A Girl (Who’s Not My Wife)

Somebody going by the name of Solitary Man said that people like the Trudeaus and the Gates aren’t good people, perhaps more beholden to the Devil than one realises despite their charismatic personas. It’s even more notable that both Bill Gates and Justin Trudeau cheated on their wives with other women, in fact Justin Trudeau even dates Katy Perry (who you should get the reference by now). It shouldn’t be surprising that unless if Sophie Trudeau does forgive them in time, maybe she might in the future, she’s deeply affected by this affair that developed. If God can reveal hidden sin, there was another viral medium where a CEO got outed for having an affair with another woman.

I remember this sermon earlier this month about God revealing secrets, that when I was thinking about this writer named PD James having had an affair with another man, it might be revealed sooner this year when documents about the British House of Lords get leaked. (Her would-be predecessor Dorothy L Sayers also had an affair with another man, to the point of bearing his son and getting him adopted by somebody else.) I remember listening to a sermon by another person on YouTube when I was thinking about PD James is that there’s a possibility that PD James might have an affair with another man, whilst disliking her husband in private. It’s kind of shocking for some people to think that those who seem to be paragons of sorts turn out to be hiding dark secrets all along.

Another sermon said that despite Bill Gates’s charitable tendency, he pales in comparison to God when it comes to goodness, and eventually it turned out that he cheated on his wife with another woman. Considering that Katy Perry’s no stranger to dating another woman’s husband (given Miranda Kerr was married to Orlando Bloom), assuming if dating or marrying a divorcee’s spouse still counts as infidelity for as long as the divorcee’s still alive, then she’s still committing adultery. It’s just that she moved on from dating one woman’s husband to another, which gets extra terrible as she’s Russell Brand’s ex-wife. And also a former Christian to boot, to the point where she gave into her sins and turned out kind of terrible. Bullying nuns, becoming kind of promiscuous and so on.

It might be possible for Katy Perry to go back to God, assuming if her own relatives and Mr Brand pray for her, since Russell Brand’s now a practising Christian himself. But it remains to be seen if she’ll ever return to the fold, she might be struggling with her own recurring sins that deep down inside she wants to stop. (I do have issues with recurring sins that I wish they’d stop but I feel perpetually helpless when I give into these.) Even then Katy Perry’s transformation from a godly Christian singer to the exact opposite is kind of Kafkasque in and of itself, it does remain to be seen if she’ll return to God if he does answer in his own timing. Or if he answers it unexpectedly, but it seems given current events it’s only Russell Brand who became a Christian for now.

Justin Trudeau seems like a good person on the surface, caring for good causes and stuff. But unfortunately it seems he himself falls short of it, going on having an affair with a well-known musician. One would wonder if Justin Trudeau’s practically a Canadian John F Kennedy, a charismatic and well-meaning man who turned out to have an affair with an entertainer. You may know her as Marilyn Monroe, who had a string of husbands and refused salvation, until the day she died (you can’t offend God and live, so it appears to be). Since there’s a prophecy of him dying, this makes him even more similar to JFK really. And then there’s another where he gets jailed for something, so he’s really up to no good. He kissed another guy’s girl and he liked it, bad enough when his own girl doesn’t want anything to do with her anymore.

Bad enough that his own girl doesn’t want anything to do with him now, so if you sin it also affects others (as I learnt recently). One would only wonder if JFK himself’s not a good person in reality, despite his charismatic character, he got outed for doing the unthinkable and then getting killed. Still comparing him to John F Kennedy makes sense since both of them come from political families, kind of charismatic characters themselves and getting into affairs with entertainers. Justin Trudeau might as well give a good idea of what JFK was like when he was alive, now that he’s outed for having an affair with an entertainer. (Looks like the idea that Canada will join Russia is also part of God’s plan and a sign that my prayer got answered in a way.)

I guess appearances are deceiving especially if/when these charismatic characters turn to have dark secrets all along, maybe it’s wiser to turn to God more instead even if sometimes life still gets bumpy. I was a fan of a celebrity who disappointed me a lot, perhaps turning to God eventually is the better path in hindsight, even if sometimes life throws at me a lot. Justin Trudeau and his southern predecessor John F Kennedy are no different, they appear to have a lot of things going on for them. But ultimately they died and had affairs with entertainers, maybe they too fall short of our expectations.

Send in the clones

I kind of prophesised before that the Philippines will succumb to China, but it would be more shocking if the Philippines actually does become something of a copy of China itself. In the same way Canada would become a near-mirror reflection of its captor, Russia but then again both the Philippines and Canada will become near-clones of their captors, China and Russia respectively once God gets rid of nearly all American influence in both countries. It’s already being undone in Canada but the next step is to have Russia overrule it in some way, mostly for being an American ally for so long that once it gets invaded by Russia and then its new prime minister even condones this, to the point where Canada does get Russianised over time. Perhaps sooner than expected, along with an overall Europeanisation of it.

I remember somebody saying that God is using the loss of American influence in Canada to destroy it, or at least become nearly unrecognisable from its current form, that when coupled with a Russian invasion leads to a new Canada. One that resembles its new master more closely, but not as much as what America will be getting. Right before it disappears into the waters altogether, whereas Canada would be left standing but changed into something more European. Although America would be mostly forgotten and destroyed by then, leaving some surviving land to be taken by either Mexico or Canada, but there’ll be a political movement set to rename Canada as New America. The figurehead is like a Canadian Saddam Hussein, obsessed with rebuilding Babylon but never completing it in any way he likes or wants to.

American influence might still remain in Canada but only to a modest extent in the future, if not outright miniscule, given American influence would’ve already been undone by then. It’s also a different Canada that most of its people see as an extension of Europe proper, instead of being America lite as it is at present, though this wouldn’t be surprising to indigenous Canadians who already saw it as Europe-lite and not in a good way. But becoming a Russian protectorate would involve substantial changes to Canadian politics, life and culture, somewhat less so than America but much more than Canada now. The nasal North American accent will remain, but it’s a different Canada where people follow and practise European customs a lot more than they did before.

A different Canada where Canada follows Russian ideologies and politics far more closely, right down to having a rather politically incorrect stance on some matters like LGBT, polyamory and a few more in the future, not necessarily exactly like Russia. Not necessarily outright Russia lite either, but more of a culturally transitional zone between Eurasia (both Russia and Europe) and what was America. At least shortly before America disappears altogether and whilst traces of American influence in Canada may remain, it’s only a matter of time before Canada does become a true extension of Europe proper. Maybe not geographically, but culturally and politically.

The Philippines might go from being one of the most westernised countries in East Asia, to becoming another copy of China and this transformation will happen sooner. But I feel it’s down to interrelated factors where the Philippines calls itself Christian, yet does a lot to the contrary as to get judged for it. Also because the Philippines is so sympathetic to Babylon that it’s practically of Babylon in nearly every way, if God allows the Philippines to give itself over to its sins then it will destroy itself just the same. HIV rates will spike in tandem with the legalisation of both gay marriages and polyamorous relationships, so will any other STD and these versions will be incurable. More and more Filipinos will hate Christianity and openly so, demanding the Philippine government to crack down on churches going against their stances.

Filipinos will succeed in getting both gay and polyamorous marriages recognised and legalised, without knowing it results in ridiculously high rates of STDs. These STDs will be so infectious and pernicious that anybody working in healthcare would need to wear special hazmat suits to handle their patients, households and places where there are substantial numbers of prostitutes, gays/queers in general and polyamorous peoples will be quarantined to keep the virus from spreading. Worst of all, it results in very high death rates, that no amount of condoms will prevent or stop this. Infected people will be screened and prevented from going wherever they might infect somebody with, because these STDs are highly contagious and contagiously lethal as to immediately kill unsuspecting bystanders in days. Christianity will be immensely looked down upon in the Philippines.

Not just as a coloniser’s religion, but also as an oppressor of all things polyamorous and LGBT, that these people will actively attack Christians and destroy churches because of their opposition to their values. It will even become commonplace for Christians to be killed in metropolitan areas, putting the Philippines in the list of places deemed dangerous for Christians. It will be another dictatorship where LGBT people aren’t just in the upper echelons, but also as the president and his first gentleman. Anything LGBT, secular and polyamorous will be deeply admired here, anything Christian will be distrusted and Filipinos will be looking to emulate some people behind the French Revolution. Right down to demanding that Philippine clergy be beheaded by the guillotine and the Philippine government will approve of this, thus driving many Christians into hiding in metropolitan areas.

Especially wherever there are a lot of LGBT and polyamorous people out there, until the day China takes over the Philippines in some way. Thus permanently and undoing most American influence here, making the Philippines a second Vietnam (sinicised Southeast Asian country). Not just in politics and ideology where the Communist party here becomes the prevailing party in the future, but also culturally where very little American influence remains here. Only to be replaced by a heavier Chinese influence and to an extent, influences from the rest of East Asia as I consider the Philippines too westernised for its own good, this is what I wanted. But what I’m getting is going to lead to a more drastically changed Philippines, one that even emulates and follows three other East Asian socialist countries a lot (Laos, Vietnam and China) and to an extent non-socialist East Asian nations (Cambodia, Indonesia, Malaysia, Japan, Korea, Myanmar).

A very different Philippines that finally has more in common with its neighbours than it did before, but where Filipinos rarely speak English and more inclined to speak in either Mandarin or Tagalog instead. Very much what I wanted, but in a way that permanently and deeply uproots most signs of American influence here, so it’s very different in the near future, for better or worse. And even before that, this Halloween some pop band will deliberately show up as demons here. Only to be met by death by stampede, earthquakes and more, leading up to the Philippines becoming deeply and forever sinicised rather quickly.

We Built This City

There’s something salient about a number of prophets calling America Mystery Babylon, given how recurring prophecies of America getting judged harshly for what it has done over a sustained period of time, when combined with having one of the western world’s largest practising Christian population and superpower status, make for a rather embarassing and shameful status. It makes more sense to think of America as Mystery Babylon than Iraq when brushed with the same, given it’s America that’s the reigning superpower of our day combined with things I said before, make its status kind of shameful. If America were to get revoked for its evils and wrongdoings, then it’s an example for other countries not to follow, something to unlearn from.

America as a superpower succeeded in popularising and refining things that their originators didn’t get around to, whether if it’s cartooning having its origins in Europe or forms of adultery anywhere else. Whilst it’s true that countries like China and Turkey were kind of ahead of America when it comes to sanctioning forms of consensual nonmonogamy, but it’s America that’s ahead of these two when it comes to popularising the same when it comes to its outsized influence on its closest allies in both the Atlantic and Pacific. We Filipinos wouldn’t consider such forms of adultery/infidelity (ahem, consensual nonmonogamy) fashionable unless if America popularises them, but this means the Philippines’s relationship with America all the more questionable.

At any point when the Philippines would’ve eagerly evangelised to its closest neighbours and even China, we’d rather be of Babylon instead. Whilst Europe is technically more secular than the United States is, but the difference is that Europe is a region of backsliders as it was polytheistic before. America, as we know it, had a discernable Christian past as a refuge for Protestant colonists avoiding perseution, unfortunately it didn’t turn out as expected over the years the more it accomodated the religiously unthinkable. While these two would be given over to Russia together, the difference is that all the European countries will fare better as commonwealths and protectorates. Possibly the same goes for Canada, since I prayed to God to help some Canadians cope with it joining Russia in some manner.

America would be worse off by being an extension of Russia proper, imagine becoming a vassal state of your worst enemy since the Cold War years. There are some people who say that it’s America that deliberately crippled the Soviet economy, so it’s payback time for Russia to return the disfavour to it. Russia will get recompensed by taking over the position America held for the rest of the west, but that would be a return to form in a way as Russia sees itself as a third Rome. As Babylon itself was a second Sumer (being heavily influenced by Sumer), making America a third Sumer if there ever is one at all. There are some Biblical passages that hint at the emergence of another Babylon, but further west since both Cush and Egypt are located in Africa.

Yet other African empires like those of the Ashanti Empire and the Hausa Empire never became far-reaching global empires, thus leaving this new Babylon somewhere in the western hemisphere. Then again Canada, Brazil, Jamaica and Mexico never became serious superpowers, so we’re ultimately left with America as the new Babylon instead. Which makes its ability to influence others for the worst all the more potent, given it succeeds in popularising things that lower people’s inhibitions. Sort of like pornography, pornographic films and publications existed before in Europe and the like, but it’s America that succeeded in commercialising these two. It’s even the country that originated well-known porn magazines like Playboy and Penthouse, despite having a substantial Christian population. Truly a double-minded country on the verge of civil instability.

Even if America were to persist in the future, it would be made highly unrecognisable by then. Not just geopolitically but physiogeographically as well, being surrounded by many sinkholes, substantial areas sunken for good and cities getting deserted over time due to radiation. America’s influence around the world is already getting undone to some extent, but it would be frightening if it were largely and permanently undone in the Philippines. But that would mean its influence here is largely bad, whatever that means, it’s no good and the Philippines is better off without it. Unfortunately as it gives into Babylon a lot, it will be permanently given over to China instead alongside both South Korea (the same) and Japan (blasphemy against God the Holy Spirit).

Given China used to influence much of East Asia to varying degrees, this would be a return to form in a way as well. There will be a Greater China composed of China itself, Taiwan, South Korea joint together with North Korea (as they were one nation before), Japan, Malaysia, Brunei, Timor Leste, Indonesia, Myanmar, Thailand, Cambodia, the Philippines, Vietnam, Laos, Mongolia (after it goes to war with Russia over it) and Singapore, with satellite states throughout Africa and Oceania. All the Oceanian islands as well as both Australia and New Zealand will be made into Chinese satellite states as with much of sub-saharan Africa, thus forming a global East to counter the global west (Russia, Europe and Canada, plus Latin America and West Asia).

A new world order where America’s out of the picture for good, where there will be a new bipolar order consisting of Russia and China with India and Brazil being neutral. Maybe more like a new multipolar order consisting of these four, perhaps five if you include South Africa but it’s still going to be a future without America. It would still turn out badly if one area in Greater Russia starts housing the Antichrist, but it’s going to be a world where America no longer exists, or if it still exists it will be greatly reduced in power and influence by then. But to the point of being practically irrelevant to everybody else.

Will it be socially acceptable again?

When it comes to the subject of fur farming in a Russianised Canada, I feel it would take time for it to be socially acceptable again, but mostly due to Canada being this close to America that despite having the potential to be more similar to Russia, it didn’t turn out that way for long because of America exerting a bigger influence on it just by sharing borders together. Canada even has many of the same geographical conditions that make it just as amenable to fur farming as Russia is and it actually was for years, though one would wonder if it takes time for fur farming to be socially acceptable again there, who’s going to be willing to work in such an industry this time? That’s not to say there aren’t any Native American vegans out there, they certainly do exist just as there are those who have made clothing out of plant fibres for years.

But the difference has to do with geography where in the case with precolonial Mexico, though there certainly were people who wore fur clothing in any way that it can be considered as such, but the average Aztec/Nahuatl citizen were wont to wear clothes out of maguey instead. Maguey being one of those plants used to make clothing there, though those living close to the Arctic (i.e. Inuit, Cree, Ojibwe) were likelier to wear animal skins instead due to the colder climate. Not to mention that even if indigenous people do care about animals and have the same pets as white people do (even cats, I know those who own them online), it seems to be more of a European descendant thing to get really sentimental over animals (from the indigenous North American standpoint). Given it’s not uncommon for indigenous North Americans to work with animal skins in any way, they’ll gravitate to fur farming more.

Especially if they’re this desperate for any income/salary to support themselves and their families as well as keeping their cultural practises alive after being marginalised and ostracised by white settlers for long, so their attitude towards both hunting and animal husbandry would take on a peculiar character. I remember reading an article saying that when it comes to the indigenous North American attitude to hunting, it’s depicted as reciprocal where the hunted animal consents to being hunted by people. It’s not obvious at first but it does defy both popular western strains of thought regarding hunting where on one hand, you have the strong hunting is cruel mentality. And on the other hand, you have people having a dominion mentality where animals exist for their convenience. Not so much where the hunted animal exists in a reciprocal relationship with humanity.

I suspect a number of Native Americans already do work in fur farming themselves, both to preserve their cultures and it’s kind of socially unacceptable for white people to do this, but it does make wonder if white people do this as they really don’t see nonwhite people as human in any way. Not necessarily dehumanised in the conventional sense, but sometimes treated as afterthoughts compared to animals (where they’re much more into). Like even if some white people do care about nonwhite people, but when they care a lot more about or obsess over animals than they do with nonwestern and nonwhite cultures, you get the impression that the latter are easily afterthoughts to them. A kind of lukewarm racism where it’s not outright contempt or fetishisation, but that nonwhite peoples and cultures are afterthoughts and deemed less interesting than say animals.

Practically nobodies because I think it’s easier for white people to project humanity onto animals, making them more than what they actually are, than to show interest in nonwhite and nonwestern cultures with the possibility that the latter could undermine or upend their understanding of things. Maybe not necessarily as there are people who do care for dogs and make their dogs hunt rodents in China, the Philippines, Indonesia and Vietnam just like their counterparts in the west. Or people caring for cats and making them hunt the same in Cameroon, Ghana, Cote D’Ivoire and Kenya, but I feel you’re more likely to find a white person who’s a lot more into animals than being into both animals and nonwestern cultures. Not helped by that many of them don’t actively seek out non-western language websites, let alone for a sustained period of time and for this often.

Although it’s possible not all African Americans condone wearing fur clothing, eating meat and the like, as a good number of them are vegans really, but for others wearing fur is a sign that they’ve made it. Especially given how and why there are socioeconomic barriers that keep most African Americans from living the same lifestyles and having the same salaries as their white counterparts do, that fur clothing is a sign of opulence among them. The fact that it’s socially unacceptable for white people to not only partake in fur farming themselves, but also wear fur garments just the same that these interrelated practises have gotten more racialised these days. That doesn’t mean Native Americans and African Americans alike can’t be vegans, but it’s a kind of white flight where once something’s deemed socially unacceptable that white people flee away from it.

So in the case with Canada joining Russia as one of its many protectorates and the only surviving North American property once America disappears, if you believe Celestial (who’s one of some who say that America is Mystery Babylon, the nation-state said to corrupt the world in the Bible), then it would be a particularly awkward situation that once Mystery Babylon/America disappears as prophesised that a good chunk of the North American landmass has disappeared. Leaving behind the Caribbean, Canada, Mexico and Central America as the survivors, and if America is Mystery Babylon then it shouldn’t be surprising that even if it didn’t originate some of these ideologies, it would play a lending hand in popularising them a lot more than their originators ever did. Perhaps one would wonder why America even has a number of places called Babylon to begin with.

Whilst Cush/Ethiopia and Egypt are both west of Babylon/Iraq, but since neither of them became global superpowers and so did the Ashanti Empire/Ghana and Senegal (also west of West Asia), this leaves the Americas as the likeliest place to find Mystery Babylon in. But then again neither Canada nor Mexico became global superpowers and so do all the Caribbean and Central American countries, Brazil has come close but never quite near the scope America enjoys, so America is the likeliest candidate for Mystery Babylon then. Whatever ideology that got popularised by America is at odds with many Christians, including the more politically right wing among them in the Americas, that it truly is deserving of the moniker of Mystery Babylon. So it will disappear for good, never to be seen again.

At any point where Canada becomes the only North American property of Russia once America disappears and one of two Russian satellites/protectorates/colonies in the Americas before America disappears, given it would take time for white Canadians to warm up to fur farming and the like that it’s practically up to Native Americans to take up the challenge that nobody else wants. I even said that Native Americans might be among those people willing to partake in fur farming themselves, since it’s deemed socially unacceptable by white people, that if no other demographic wants that job then Native Americans will gravitate to it. Maybe not all Native Americans just as not all white North Americans are averse to fur farming themselves, but I feel the former are far likelier to gravitate to it. Fur farming is so stigmatised that it’ll be mostly stigmatised people that’ll gravitate to it.

Especially Native North Americans but given their own communities and cultural practises involve a good deal of using and cultivating animal skins for centuries, that fur farming will be a walk in the park for them. One might speculate about a future that at any point when Canada consents to joining Russia is when Native Americans will eagerly breed Arctic foxes, red foxes, wolves, muskrats, American mink, chinchillas and even ferrets for fur, it’s like that in Russia where some Russian farmers do breed and use ferrets for fur like they do with their relatives like wolverines and American mink. There are indigenous North American communities that have experience with the latter two, so it would be business as usual if they started breeding wolverines and American mink for fur in earnest, well in a way. Even then, if Canada does join Russia at all, that this will lead to profound exchanges that concern the Arctic.

It is speculative for now but highly plausible given how and why Native Americans seem less squeamish towards using animal skins for clothing than white people do, not that it makes them any more desclined towards veganism or animal welfare, but it’s got to do with a kind of white flight where once fur farming’s deemed socially unacceptable for white people to partake that many, if not most, Native Americans would be one of those peoples who’ll be put up with its nature at all. One of those peoples who’ll even partake in fur farming in any way that kind of deters white people from it, though it would be really controversial in Canada if they ever use ferrets for fur farming. Given there are others who keep them as pets and even use them for hunting, and it’s more common than with mink, so using them for fur farming will be precluded altogether.

Whilst there are people who do keep American mink, chinchillas, rabbits and red foxes as pets in Canada, fewer still have Arctic foxes as pets and given how long Canada has been Americanised, despite its potential to become even more like Russia, it would be pretty awkward for Canada to warm up to fur farming again and be amenable to even breeding red foxes for their pelts in years. So I feel Native Americans would inevitably and plausibly gravitate to this more, as it’s socially unacceptable for white people to partake in it in any way, speaking from my experience it’s Native Americans (irrespective of gender) who’re less squeamish towards skinning animals for clothing. Let’s not forget that unemployment among them can be pretty high, not helped by that they’re often precluded from the things they love working on.

Thus giving them nothing better to do in life, speaking as somebody who’s endured unemployment for long, having something better to do and getting paid for it is a better and kinder option. Especially when this person wants to wean themselves from doing something wrong (I’m speaking from my own experiences here), that it would be wiser to immediately support them than to leave them to their own devices but with no real direction in sight. That wouldn’t excuse others from animal abuse but when it comes to those who do want (to have) something better to do in life, that perhaps consistent employment and salaries are preferable to having nothing better to do in life at all. Though I feel this is something many animal rights activists miss out on, since they don’t really know what’s like to be both deprived of your culture and be unemployed for long, as to seek out less productive means in life.

Especially if you’re Native American that it becomes a damned if you do, damned if you don’t whenever these guys are around, torn between wanting to preserve one’s culture through one’s occupation of choice and having to assimilate into settler society by doing whatever they’re made to do against their will. It might not be unique to them but it’s a vexing situation to end up in where you feel the need to find a way to hold onto your culture as much as you can, but you’re eventually deprived of it again and again because people think you’re evil or something. Either that or some animal rights activists don’t see the world in greyscale, though I’m sometimes like this in a way as well (hard for me to admit). Though at times they don’t understand what’s like to be unemployed and not supported by others when you want to work on something.

This is something that I’ve experienced when it came to soapmaking because I wanted to have something better to do because I was addicted to something bad, though my grandmother didn’t allow me to even when it could’ve given me some income early on. There are likely some ARAs and vegans who do get this but I’m afraid it’s easier to be hung up on an ideology that promotes a strong black and white mindset that makes it harder to understand why other people do these things, especially if they really want a consistent income and something better to do in life. Depriving them of these things gives them little else to do in life, nothing more productive to do to get them by. Quite inevitably if fur farming ever becomes fashionable in Canada again, it would take time for Canadians to adjust to this new reality after being socialised to find it unacceptable.

And of all the Canadian nationals who’ll end up partaking it anyways would be indigenous people, who by then partake in small scale fur farming. Fur farming in a Russianised Canada wouldn’t be as big as it was before, but certainly more present than it ever was in the recent past. It would be more of a cottage industry where a select handful of people, but most notably indigenous Canadians at that, who’d willingly raise foxes, mink, wolverines and the like for fur both to preserve their cultures and to have any consistent income in any way they need and like. Their most likely clients are Russians who live in a world where Canada and all of Europe are Russian protectorates, so they learn to go with Russia’s orders every now and then. In the case with the Inuit people, it’s like this with seals for quite a while. Earning money from fur farming would be the near-default for a number of indigenous Canadians by then.

Since it would take time for Canada to warm up to fur farming again in years that it would take Native Americans to willingly make a living from a rather stigmatised agricultural discipline, that when fur farming does become socially acceptable again in Canada it would be a glorified cottage industry for many Native Americans working for their Russian clients, whilst seeking that happy middle ground when it comes to preserving their own folkways for long. It might have already been something of a cottage industry for them before, assuming if they worked in fur farming beforehand, but the resurgence of fur farming in Canada due to a Russian influence would have a lot of Native Americans willingly gravitating to it, because their white counterparts remain socialised to reject it.

It could change though I still think Native Americans would be one of the only peoples to partake in fur farming, if it does become fashionable again in the future when Canada does join Russia at all.

Kafkasque

There’s something oddly Kafkasque concerning prophecies of America coming to persecute Christians and some say it has already happened to some extent, given it has both a substantial Evangelical Christian population and was founded as a Christian colony at present. But with others saying that it’s Mystery Babylon, a nation-state said to corrupt the entire planet with its filth and getting drunk on the blood of saints, that it seems painfully reasonable for America to be this entity. Like what Dumitru Duduman said, America started out as a Christian colony (well, a Christian settler-colony as it took land from pre-existing Native American territories). But eventually lost its way by welcoming or condoning so much filth over time as to warrant getting revoked at any point in the future.

The transformation of America into an anti-Christian totalitarian state is pretty shocking, given it has a history of religious freedom for so long but one that proved to be its Achilles heel. Should it continue in sin, that freedom permits? Russia has undergone something similar before but then again it was initially a pagan or polytheistic country that converted to Christianity and then for a while, state atheism, before going back to being Christian of sorts. America’s religious history is more peculiar in that as a settler-colony, it started out as a Christian settler-colony at that. It never had a polytheistic past like with all the European countries (including Ireland, Italy, France, the Netherlands, Britain, Germany and Hungary), the one North American country that’s comparable to it would be Canada.

So logically it’s going to be judged for what it ended up doing over the years, but then again Celestial said that it’s not going to be as bad as what America’s getting, because the latter’s very much a superpower at this point. She also said that both Canada and Mexico will be judged for following Mystery Babylon a lot, not helped by that these two share the same landmass together. If America ever gets halved by an earthquake, these two will get caught in the crossfire together. If sin has consequences that affect others, this is what America will get and what Canada and Mexico will also be getting. America may not originate certain things like animation, but as a superpower it’s going to popularise and codify it in a way almost no other country would do. In some regards, moreso than Japan as Japan’s practically a middle power.

American influence’s already getting reduced in some parts of the world, but it would be more shocking if God allows a lot more American influence to be revoked or greatly reduced in other places. Especially those closely allied to it at present like the Philippines, that if the Philippines were to be judged for following Babylon a lot he’s going to let China take over it as a comeuppance for its own sins, wherein American influence will be greatly reduced here at best and totally revoked at worst. The one outcome even odder than this is how and why there’s going to be a role reversal between America and Russia, the former will become a totalitarian communist state and the latter a capitalist state. For those who were young when the original Cold War was at its height, it’s America that’s the capitalist, democratic state and Russia the communist, autocratic state.

It’s a case of the first becoming the last and the last becoming the first, well in a way, but with America becoming almost everything it loathes about other countries, especially China and Russia, that makes not only for a painful irony but also how oddly hypocritical America is (I do struggle with being judgemental and hypocritical). Admittedly I’m doubtful over whether or not Russia will actually become capitalist, but even then Russia will inevitably unseat America as the epicentre and face of western civilisation as we know it. The third Rome will defeat the third Babylon (as the first Babylon is Sumer) together with China, two communist superpowers defeating a capitalist hegemon. The end of American imperialism as we know it but before that America will turn into something rather kafkasque.

That is the transformation from a God-fearing Christian settler-colony to a deeply apostate and reprobate headquarter of evil (practically hell on earth), with the serious economic collapse and the earthquake both hastening this metamorphosis. It’s probably already there to some extent with Donald Trump demanding that the US media and corporations comply with his orders every now and then, lest he do something bad like defund the Public Broadcasting Corporation. He already did this to the latter and it would be more shocking if he’s out to censor pastors critical of him, which means he is drunk with power and may not even last long. Both Kamala Harris and eventually Barack Obama will replace him, further speeding up American decline.

The odd fact that America even welcomed the original Nazis makes its relationship with Jews all the more questionable, though it’s good to forgive one’s oppressors but it’s still strange why would America welcome the original Nazis whilst honouring Jews a lot. It’s even more surreal to think that Josef Mengele didn’t just move to the Americas but also lived long enough whilst assuming another identity altogether, getting away with torture with this new identity alone. Not to mention you have people calling truth conspiracy and lies truth, essentially calling good evil and evil good. So America is a very doubleminded country, not sure who to follow and what’s good from what’s not. It’s on the verge of sociopolitical instability now that Charlie Kirk’s dead and Trump’s next, so another civil war’s inevitable for the United States.

When compounded by an earthquake hitting North America, thus practically making both Canada and Mexico collateral damage, incidental and perhaps incremental to America’s own sins and vice versa. It would be pretty frightening if America actually becomes a real dictatorship, perhaps even under Trump, that it could even incorporate Jamaica into its territory. Which further hurts any good standing it has with its parent the United Kingdom, given it currently wants all of Canada to join it. And even if it succeeds at getting Canada from Britain, I have a feeling it’s not going to last long once these two get conquered by Russia but only Canada becomes a protectorate and America an extension of Russia proper. There goes the end of America as we know it, the hegemon that was and is no more.

The weird thing about a Russianised Canada

The weird thing about a Russianised Canada is that given they share similar latitudes and range of climates (not necessarily identical, but comparably similar), if Canada ever consents to or joins Russia in some fashion, then almost anything Russian is nearly applicable to Canada. This would be exacerbated should America seriously fall into decline, that if it weren’t for American influence and given Canada is kind of similar to Russia that Canada would’ve remained amenable to fur farming. A very controversial agricultural discipline where animals are domesticated for their furs, which will get utilised for clothing by the way. Fur farming in Russia started sometime between the Middle Ages and Early Modern period, which got refined over the years.

Believe it or not, the Russian Belyaev foxes that were assumed to be deliberately domesticated in Russia were actually Canadian imports, one would wonder if Canada ever agrees to joining Russia that it might resume this controversial practise. But this would mean that Russia might actually get to influence Canadian culture a lot this time, or at least more than it did before if it weren’t for America getting in the way. Like I said that both Canada and Russia share latitudes and a similar range of climates and biomes together, if Russia ever gets to influence Canada a lot once America stops being a superpower, then there’s a chance that Canada could adopt Russian ideologies and belief systems to an extent. Sort of like how and why a lot of European countries and Canada tend to follow America’s lead in cultural and ideological matters in many (if not most) regards, which becomes evident with mass culture.

It’s really not uncommon for both Canadians and Europeans to be this aware of and be into American mass culture a lot, whether if it’s US cartoon heroes or musicians like Sabrina Carpenter and Backstreet Boys, in fact it’s actually not uncommon for both Canadians and Europeans to enjoy American films, video games and television programmes a lot either. Though there are Canadians and Europeans who’re into Korean programmes as well as Japanese comics and animations, these take backseat compared to US media which are far more widely enjoyed as to be practically normalised and go unnoticed for most of the part, to the extent that anything American is synonymous with anything western. If because America is practically the current seat of western civilisation, so Europe and Canada will inevitably take a lot from it.

This also includes similar stances on hot button topics like fur farming, though this sentiment is far from nonexistent in Russia. Especially animal rights but then again Canada’s practically in the same latitude as Russia is and also share a similar range of climates and biomes together, so there’s a chance that if Canada ever comes under Russian jurisdiction in any way Canada would end up emulating Russia to a plausible extent. If possible, Canada might even take cues from Russian politics and ideologies more in this scenario, though it remains to be seen if Canada will even resume fur farming en masse. But it’s pretty likely for the reasons I stated before in ways that might shock Canada itself, since it’s had a longstanding relationship with America for years.

Maybe not as much as I make it out to be, but it does make one wonder if Canada could’ve been more like Russia. Not necessarily identical to Russia but out of all the potential countries to join Russia in the future (if you believe somebody like Celestial), Canada could easily be one of the most similar but not just culturally. Also geographically, which speaks for itself. But when it comes to somebody like Celestial, she’s one of those people who say that America is Mystery Babylon, a future nation-state in the Bible said to corrupt the entire world with its filth. In the sense of practically and effectively popularising everything shameful and embarrasing like porn films and magazines to the world, despite having a rather substantial Christian base to boot. Whether or not this even includes modern political correctness is up to anybody’s guess.

But since America and its allies are big on multinational immigrant multiculturalism, in fact in ways that aren’t neatly applicable to Russia (communist past), China (still communist) and the rest of the east, whether if it even includes African countries at all, so what starts in America will get popularised elsewhere. This includes an antagonistic stance on fur farming, but it’s got a lot to do with America being the reigning superpower of the day. So inevitably and predictably, American ideas will get inculcated onto other countries almost immediately moreso with both mass media and social media. Canada would be really susceptible to this not just because both of them share the same language together, but also because it’s this close to the United States enough to feel like a bootleg of the latter.

Take PETA for instance, though its founder is British it’s primarily an American organisation. It’s also one that spread across the world, there’s one in Germany and likely another one in Canada too. So inevitably if there’s a particular antagonism towards fur farming in America, it will spread across its closest allies and to some extent, outside of its sphere of influence as well. Even if this stance didn’t originate in America but with America being a superpower that it will succeed in popularising it, in a way its originator didn’t get around to in any capacity. Animation didn’t originate in America but America not only popularised it, it also formalised many familiar conventions and practises. It’s also behind venerable brands like Disney, Pixar, Warner Bros, Nickelodeon and Hanna Barbera.

The idea may not take root in America but since it’s a current superpower that it will popularise it much more successfully and inculcate this onto other countries and cultures, sort of like how horse meat used to be fairly popular in France, Germany and Spain. The stance existed in Britain before but America pretty much popularised it and as a result, these three countries don’t eat much horse meat as they did before. This also includes fur farming because even if the stance didn’t originate in America, what America did is to popularise it and it spread across the world when it was at its height. Canada being America’s closest neighbour to the north would be very suspectible to America’s sphere to influence, to the extent that what takes root in America will immediately to Canada, with or without the mediations of both mass media and social media.

A Russianised Canada would be a rather different situation, whilst Canada doesn’t really share a physical border with Russia but as the two share latitudes, climates and biomes together, Canada could see itself in Russia and vice versa in an unexpected way. It’s hard to tell if fur farming en masse will ever resume in Canada should it consent to joining Russia, even if it does it would take time for such a practise to see a resurgence there. It would take time for both Russia and Canada to build healthy, consenting bilateral relations at all if Canada ever consents to joining it, though this could lead to largely unprecedented cultural exchanges as Canada has been under America’s spell for a long time. Like I said that if it weren’t for America getting in the way, Canada would’ve remained sympathetic to fur farming.

Russia has had a tradition of fur farming, even if not all Russians do this or are they sympathetic to that cause, so it would have fairly extensive experiences with using wolves, lynxes, foxes, arctic foxes and the like for fur. Canada also does something similar with some of these animals, but on a smaller scale not just to the influence of animal rights activism but also that it’s still practised by only some people (primarily indigenous North Americans at that). Even then if Russia is something of a pioneer in large scale fur farming, if Canada were to join it in the future then it too will inevitably follow its lead over this vexing matter. Maybe not in a way that I’d expect but inevitably given it will be under Russia’s sphere of influence when it does join Russia at all.
