Starting The Next Revolution

WE AMERICANS ARE FOND of calling the United States the "greatest country in the world", as if we have the slightest idea what we're talking about. As if we have any idea whatsoever whether other countries might be great, and how great they might be, or what greatness even is. How we love to praise ourselves. I tell people that the U.S. is my favorite country, because I was born and raised here, and I live here, never having been outside the country, to be honest. I claim to be ignorant of which country is "the greatest", and that I consider it arrogant to call yourself "great". Nobody ever agrees, nobody even seems to have any idea what I'm talking about, which seems amazing to me. My favorite country should actually be Russia, perhaps, because more Russians than Americans visit this website. What better reason is there? Its all about me! We Americans are out for number one, always! Maybe the Russians outnumber the Americans because this site is highly critical of the United States; Russians like that, and Americans don't. However, Americans are also very good at criticizing America; they do it constantly. And that may be partly what makes America great, to the extent that it is great, in any way, shape, or form other than the use of military power to invade, conquer, occupy, and kill people in other countries. In America, we are blessed with the freedom of popular dissent, and even though we use this great tool, we use it too sparingly. In Russia, there is too little freedom of expression, with too many difficulties in it, and too many harsh consequences for popular dissent. Popular dissent, mass protest, is almost always for the right reasons, whenever and whenever it occurs. Revolutions, no matter where, when, or for what cause, are almost always necessary and good. The next revolution will be global, not national, it will be on the internet as much as in person, it will involve the world's working poor, rising up against the world's wealthy powerful elite, it will be lead by a union of Russian, Chinese, and American working poor, and it will succeed.
