Ndi David Swanson, World BEYOND War, December 28, 2021
Thom Hartmann adalemba mabuku ambiri abwino kwambiri, ndipo aposachedwa ndi chimodzimodzi. Amatchedwa Mbiri Yobisika ya Big Brother ku America: Momwe Imfa Yazinsinsi ndi Kukwera kwa Kuwunika Kumatiwopseza Ife ndi Demokalase Yathu. Thom sakonda kudana ndi anthu ochokera kumayiko ena ngakhale pang'ono, wonyada, kapena wokonda nkhondo. Iye amatsutsa - ambiri mwa iwo oyenerera bwino - kwa maboma ambiri kuphatikizapo lomwe lili ku Washington, DC Ngati simukudziwa 4% ya anthu kapena mukukhulupirira kuti ili ndi chilichonse chofanana ndi demokalase, monga mutu wa bukuli ukufunira kuti muchite, mutha kubwera pamutu wowunika kuchokera kumbali yomwe imawona zoyipa komanso zabwino mu njira yomwe omasuka ku US nthawi zambiri amatsutsa kuwunika.
Big Brother ku America lili ndi ndime zomveka bwino pamitu yodziwika bwino kwa owerenga a Hartmann: kusankhana mitundu, ukapolo, kulamulira, "nkhondo" yolimbana ndi mankhwala osokoneza bongo, ndi zina zotero. mafoni, masewera, ma TV, mawotchi olimbitsa thupi, zidole zolankhula za Barbie, ndi zina zotero, pamabungwe omwe akupanga makasitomala osafunikira kudikirira nthawi yayitali, pamasamba akusintha mitengo yazinthu kuti ifanane ndi zomwe amayembekeza kuti wina angalipire, pazida zamankhwala kudyetsa deta ku inshuwaransi. makampani, pa mbiri yodziwika ndi nkhope, pawailesi yakanema amakankhira ogwiritsa ntchito kuwonera monyanyira, komanso funso la momwe zimakhudzira machitidwe a anthu kudziwa kapena kuopa kuti akuwayang'anira.
Koma kwinakwake m’njira, kuteteza anthu ku kugwiritsiridwa ntchito molakwa kwa mphamvu ndi maboma ndi mabungwe achinyengo kumagwirizanitsidwa ndi kuteteza boma lachinyengo ku ziwopsezo zongoyerekezera kapena mokokomeza zakunja. Ndipo kuphatikiza uku kukuwoneka kuti kumathandizira kuyiwala kuti kuchulukira kwachinsinsi cha boma ndi vuto lalikulu ngati kusowa kwachinsinsi. Hartmann akuda nkhawa ndi zomwe Purezidenti Donald Trump amagwiritsa ntchito mosasamala foni yam'manja mwina adawululira maboma akunja. Ndikudandaula zomwe mwina zidabisira anthu aku US. Hartmann akulemba kuti “[t] pano palibe boma padziko lapansi lomwe lilibe zinsinsi zomwe, zikaululidwa, zingawononge chitetezo cha dzikolo. Komabe, palibe paliponse pamene iye amalongosola “chisungiko cha dziko” kapena kufotokoza chifukwa chake tiyenera kuchisamalira. Amangonena kuti: “Kaya ndi zankhondo, zamalonda, kapena zandale, maboma nthaŵi zonse amabisa zinthu pazifukwa zoipa ndi zabwino.” Komabe maboma ena alibe asilikali, ena amawona mgwirizano wa boma ndi "malonda" monga fascistic, ndipo ena amamangidwa pa lingaliro lakuti ndale ndi chinthu chotsiriza chomwe chiyenera kusungidwa chinsinsi (chimatanthauza chiyani kusunga ndale chinsinsi?). Nchiyani chomwe chingakhale chifukwa chabwino cha chinsinsi chilichonse ichi?
Inde, Hartmann amakhulupirira (tsamba 93, kwathunthu sans kutsutsana kapena mawu apansi, monga momwe zimakhalira) kuti Purezidenti wa Russia Vladimir Putin anathandiza Trump kuti apambane chisankho cha 2016 - ngakhale kuti Putin ankafuna kuthandiza kapena kuyesera kuthandiza koma kuti anathandiza, zomwe palibe umboni, zomwe zingakhale chifukwa chake. palibe chomwe chimaperekedwa. M'malo mwake, Hartmann akukhulupirira kuti boma la Russia "mwina" latsekereza "kukhalapo kwa Russia kwazaka zambiri mkati mwa machitidwe athu." Kuopa kwakukulu kumeneku kuti wina wochokera kumbali yolakwika ya dziko lapansi atha kudziwa zomwe boma la US likuchita likuwerengera anthu ambiri omasuka ngati chifukwa chodana ndi Russia kapena chifukwa cha malamulo okhwima pa cyber-attack - ngakhale sichinachitikepo, mpaka kalekale. kuzindikira kuti Russia akufuna kuletsa kuukira kwa cyber kwa zaka zambiri ndipo boma la US likanidwa. Mosiyana ndi ine, vuto ili likusonyeza kufunika kodziwitsa anthu zomwe boma likuchita, kuti boma liwonekere poyera kwa anthu omwe akuwaganizira kuti amayang'anira demokalase. Ngakhale nkhani ya momwe Democratic Party idabera Senator Bernie Sanders pamwambo wosankhidwa - nkhani yomwe Russiagate idapangidwa kuti isokoneze - inali chifukwa chochepetsera chinsinsi, osati kupitilira apo. Tikadayenera kudziwa zomwe zikuchitika, kuthokoza aliyense amene watiuza zomwe zikuchitika, ndikuyesera kukumbukira ngakhale kuchitapo kanthu pa zomwe zikuchitika.
Hartmann akupitiriza kufotokoza nkhani ya 2014 kulanda boma ku Ukraine ndi kusowa koyenera kutchulidwa za kulanda. Hartmann akuwoneka wosasamala ndi zowona, akukokomeza zatsopano ndi zosiyana zaukadaulo wamasiku ano, kuphatikiza kunena kuti pogwiritsa ntchito umisiri waposachedwa m'pamene aliyense angalakwitse. “Mwachitsanzo, kusonkhezera chidani chaufuko kungatsekereze anthu ambiri m’ndende, koma kumaloledwa kuchulukirachulukira pa Facebook . . . ” Ayi, sizikanatero. Zonena zachilendo za nkhanza zaku China za Uighurs zikuphatikizidwa potengera mawu a Guardian nenani kuti “amakhulupirira . . . kuti.” Ukapolo ndi "mphukira yachirengedwe" yaulimi, ngakhale kuti palibe mgwirizano pakati pa ziwirizi m'mbiri ya dziko ndi mbiri isanayambe. Ndipo timayesa bwanji zonena kuti Frederick Douglass sakadaphunzira kuwerenga ngati eni ake anali ndi zida zamakono zowunikira?
Choopsa chachikulu komanso choyang'ana kwambiri m'bukuli ndi kampeni ya Trump, zotsatsa zazing'ono za Facebook, zokhala ndi ziganizo zosiyanasiyana, ngakhale "ndizosatheka kudziwa kufunika kwake." Zina mwazotsatira zake ndikuti kuyang'ana kwa zotsatsa za Facebook kumapangitsa "kutsutsa kwamtundu uliwonse kukhala kosatheka" ngakhale izi zimanenedwa ndi olemba ambiri akufotokozera chifukwa chake tiyenera kukana zotsatsa za Facebook, zomwe ine ndi anthu ambiri omwe ndimafunsa nthawi zambiri timakhala. kapena kunyalanyazidwa kwathunthu - ngakhale kuti ndizosatheka.
Hartmann adagwira mawu wogwira ntchito pa Facebook akunena kuti Facebook ndiyomwe idasankha Trump. Koma chisankho cha Trump chinali chochepa kwambiri. Zinthu zambiri zasintha. Zikuwoneka kuti kugonana kunapangitsa kusiyana, kuti ovota m'maboma awiri ofunika kwambiri omwe amawona Hillary Clinton ngati wokonda nkhondo adasintha kusiyana, kuti kunama kwa Trump ndikusunga zinsinsi zingapo zoipa kunapangitsa kusiyana, kuti kupatsa othandizira Bernie Sanders anapanga kusiyana, kuti koleji masankho anapanga kusiyana, kuti wonyozeka ntchito yaitali anthu Hillary Clinton anapanga kusiyana, kuti atolankhani makampani kukoma kwa mlingo Lipenga analenga kusiyana. Chilichonse mwazinthu izi (ndi zina zambiri) zomwe zimapangitsa kusiyana sizikutanthauza kuti zina zonse sizinapange kusiyana. Chifukwa chake, tisapereke kulemera kwambiri pazomwe Facebook imayenera kuchita. Komabe, tiyeni tifunse umboni wosonyeza kuti chinachita zimenezo.
Hartmann amayesa kunena kuti zomwe zidalengezedwa pa Facebook ndi ma troll aku Russia zidapangitsa kusiyana, popanda umboni weniweni, ndipo pambuyo pake m'bukulo kuvomereza kuti "[n] munthu ali wotsimikiza mpaka lero (wina, mwina, kuposa Facebook)" -zilipo "Black Antifa" zochitika. Hartmann sapereka umboni wochepa pa zomwe akunena mobwerezabwereza kuti maboma akunja ndi omwe ali ndi udindo m'njira yomveka yofalitsa zongopeka zachiwembu pazachiwembu zaku US - ngakhale zongopeka zabodza zilibe umboni wocheperako kuposa zomwe amanenera. amene wawafalitsa.
Hartmann anenanso za "Stuxnet" ya US-Israel kuukira Iran ngati kuukira koyamba kwakukulu kotere. Iye akufotokoza kuti ikuchititsa kuti Iran iwononge ndalama zambiri pazida zofanana za cyber-attack, ndikudzudzula / kuyamikira Iran, Russia, ndi China chifukwa cha ziwawa zosiyanasiyana zomwe boma la US linanena. Tonsefe tikuyembekezeka kusankha kuti ndi ziti zomwe zimanena kuti ndi iti mwa maboma abodzawa omwe ali oona. Ndikudziwa zinthu ziwiri zowona apa:
1) Chidwi changa pazinsinsi zanga komanso kutha kusonkhana mwaufulu ndikutsutsa ndizosiyana kwambiri ndi ufulu wa boma wosunga zomwe likuchita m'dzina langa ndi ndalama zanga.
2) Kufika kwa cyberwar sikuchotsa mitundu ina yankhondo. Hartmann akulemba kuti "Kuwerengera chiopsezo / mphotho ya cyberwar ndikwabwino kwambiri kuposa nkhondo ya nyukiliya kotero kuti mwina nkhondo yanyukiliya yakhala yosasinthika." Pepani, koma nkhondo ya nyukiliya sinamveke bwino. Nthawi zonse. Ndipo ndalama m’menemo ndi kukonzekera kwake zikukwera mofulumira.
Zikuwoneka kwa ine kuti tiyenera kulankhula za kuyang'aniridwa kwa anthu mosiyana ndi kulankhula za maiko a cyber-attack ndi zankhondo. Aliyense akuwoneka kuti akuchita ntchito yabwinoko kale. Zotsirizirazo zikayamba kusakanikirana, kukonda dziko lako kumawoneka kuti kupotoza zinthu zofunika kwambiri. Kodi tikufuna kulepheretsa boma loyang'anira kapena kulipatsa mphamvu? Kodi tikufuna kusokoneza ukadaulo wawukulu kapena kuzipereka ndalama kuti zithandizire kuletsa alendo oyipa? Maboma omwe akufuna kuzunza anthu awo popanda ziwonetsero amangokonda adani akunja. Simuyenera kuwakonda, koma muyenera kuzindikira cholinga chomwe akutumikira.
