Exceptional Hypocrisy: The Defining Principle of America’s Foreign Policy

Exceptional Hypocrisy: The Defining Principle of America’s Foreign Policy



Unfortunately for the evangelists of American exceptionalism, the pretense of invincibility is crumbling as the tide turns towards an increasingly divergent multipolar reality
America's #1!

In the Bizarro universe inhabited by the western mainstream media, elite opinion makers and professional mouthpieces have completely abandoned fact-based journalism in favor of outright gaslighting and propaganda dissemination in its questionable coverage of American foreign policy. Russia has decisively displaced ISIS as America’s Public Enemy #1 for the moment, as evidenced by the avalanche of sensationalist articles accusing Putin of nuclear warmongering. Fanciful speculation is routinely passed off as serious political analysis, serving to distract the discourse with frivolous insinuations of Putin’s alleged personality defects. Dissenting opinions are ruthlessly excluded from the official story, making it easy for the casual news consumer to mistake cynical groupthink for objective reality.
