I am an American citizen of Scandanavian heritage. I am white, with blond hair and blue eyes. When asked about my race, I, like most (still most?) Americans, select “Caucasian” as my race because I am “white.”

“Caucasian” is something we all take for granted, especially in the context of our supposed bitter rivalry with Russia; which began after Russia kicked Hitler's ass in World War II and America took all the credit (along with the Nazi scientists, propaganda specialists, strategists, weapons specialists, as well as weapon and other technology). The irony of the situation is that when we select “Caucasian,” we are no more than acknowledging our kinship with Russia and the Russian peoples.

It's really quite simple: The Caucuses are a range of mountains in Russia. So, to say you are Caucasian, is to say you are the same as any Russian. We are related, by our very DNA. We are, in fact, one in the same. Scandavians, white Europeans, and white Americans are all universally Caucasian because they all originated within what is now Russia.


So why the big fuss? What the hell is so different that we must now hate our own brethren across the sea, people who live in the land where we ourselves came from? And we are supposed to hate Russians?

Aside from the fact that I don't personally have anything against any individual Russian more than I would or do against any American; I personally see no reason why Americans and Russians shouldn't get along splendidly. Why? Because both are nations of greedy, selfish people who have no morality, and whose lives are lived by exploiting the earth (and it's people, especially in the case of America), and who are in fact destroying this planet's ability to support mankind at about an equal pace.

That America is a climate-change boosting greedfest is obvious. But anyone who thinks Russia is doing any better had better start reading the news and doing so more objectively (including by reading actual objective news, rather than mainstream media propaganda.)

Russians are just as bad as Americans in their blindness to the consequences of their impact on this world. And right now, Russia is digging the final inches of mankind's grave by developing the Arctic and creating a shipping lane. In point of fact, I observed that in 2012 – and I cannot confirm this as fact – it appeared to me that Russia deliberately polluted the ice over the Northeast Passage in order to facilitate the melting of the ice; a crime which in my mind is an order of magnitude greater than any crimes against humanity committed by America. Regardless however; Russia is developing the Arctic, and this will create problems for mankind, and it will create them sooner than anyone imagines.

The simple fact is, no nation on this planet has anyone's best interests in mind because all governments are strictly there to maintain the status quo and protect the ability of the wealthy to continue to be wealthy by exploiting those of us who have morals and choose not to destroy our planet. Governments are the problem, not the solution.
