The Long Game - Why Europe, Britain, and America Keep Tripping on the Same Colonial Banana Peels

Let’s peel back the layers on this geopolitical onion and get to the core of what’s really going down. The COVID world hit like a freight train, but don’t kid yourself—everything was already in motion long before anyone knew the word "pandemic" wasn’t just a movie plot. What we’ve been living through for the past few years is just the latest in a centuries-old script, and trust me, it’s all about the resources. Europe has run the same tired playbook since it learned the fine art of colonization, and now, with the help of our globalist puppet-masters, the stakes are higher and the game is dirtier.

Europe’s Climate Crusade: The Green Mask of Control

When you hear Europe scream about climate change and push for more "regulations," understand this: it’s got nothing to do with saving polar bears and everything to do with one grim fact—they’re out of juice. Europe doesn’t have the oil, the coal, or the natural gas to sustain an economy for 700 million people. They’ve been siphoning off the world’s resources for centuries, whether by military force or financial coercion. Their industrial might was never theirs; it was looted from colonies stretching across Africa, Asia, and the Americas.

But now? That well’s running dry, and they need a new trick to keep their economies afloat. That’s where the whole climate-change pitch comes in—shift the narrative, redirect blame, and mask the real crisis: the EU is resource bankrupt.

From Colonies to Color Revolutions: Same Game, New Board

This playbook goes way back, folks. It started with European colonization and has evolved into something more insidious in the modern age: color revolutions. The Brits, masters of this game, figured out long ago that sending in an army is messy and expensive. But destabilizing a country through soft power? Cheap, efficient, and devastatingly effective.

They undermine governments by empowering dissidents, controlling media, and turning economic screws. And when the moment’s right? Bam! You’ve got yourself a shiny new revolution, and the resources flow back to the Western powers, who—like vampires—need fresh blood to keep themselves alive.

Ukraine: The Next Move in the Empire’s Endless Game

This brings us to the current stage: Ukraine. Let’s be real—this war isn’t about freedom or sovereignty. The West, especially Britain and America, doesn’t want it to end. Why would they? It’s all about draining Russia’s natural resources. Ukraine is just the battleground where this new phase of the Great Game is being played out.

Here’s the kicker: Europe needs Russia’s assets. The Brits, in particular, are salivating at the prospect of carving up Russia’s natural resource empire. The same old imperial hunger that fueled the British Empire for centuries hasn’t gone anywhere; it’s just been dressed up in new rhetoric. The EU wants Russian gas, oil, and minerals to keep the lights on in their post-colonial paradise. And let’s not forget the real debt holder pulling the strings: the Bank of England.

The British Empire’s Ghost: Trading Muskets for Money

The Brits didn’t give up on empire after they lost India—they just changed tactics. They went from maritime and industrial dominance to financial hegemony. The Bank of England has been the epicenter of this operation, and they’ve managed to keep the game going long after the Union Jack was lowered in far-flung colonies.

But now they’re in trouble. Real trouble. The Bank of England is on the hook for billions in Ukraine’s World Bank debt, and it’s not looking pretty. Ukraine has defaulted, and the bill is about to come due. But here’s the trick: just like in World War I, Britain is angling to get bailed out by the United States. They did it before, and they’ll try it again. Make no mistake: every time Britain overextends itself, it finds a way to drag America into the mess to clean it up.

The U.S. Civil War: Britain’s Botched Play for Empire

Now let’s dial it back for a moment and talk about the Civil War—no, scratch that—the War Between the States. Britain and France tried a color revolution on America long before they perfected the technique in the 20th century. The goal was simple: divide and conquer. The South, with its raw commodities, would become Europe’s permanent colony, providing cotton and tobacco for European markets. Meanwhile, the North would be isolated and weakened, strangled by tariffs and trade restrictions.

But Abraham Lincoln and the Union survived—barely. The Civil War was a failed color revolution, and it forced Britain to rethink its relationship with America. That’s when the Brits started cozying up to Washington, playing the long game to worm their way into the highest levels of American power.

Rise of the Puppet Masters: The Birth of Globalism

Fast forward to the 20th century, and the Brits finally got their claws in deep. Starting with Wilson and Hoover, globalists—mostly with British backing—took over the American government. They tried to pull us into globalist schemes like the League of Nations and, later, the United Nations. Britain, facing the decline of its empire, realized the only way to maintain power was through international financial institutions and alliances with the United States.

That’s how we ended up with World War I, which wasn’t just about defeating Germany—it was about saving Britain’s financial hide. London needed to win the war to repay its massive debts to American investors, and guess who bailed them out? That’s right—good ol' Uncle Sam.

Putin's Playbook: Dodging the West's Traps

And now here we are again. Putin sees the game. He’s watched the West run this playbook before—whether it was the Bolshevik Revolution or World War II—and he’s not biting. The West keeps poking Russia, hoping for an overreaction, hoping for a pretext to escalate into a larger war. But Putin? He’s playing 75D chess while the West is still fumbling around with checkers. He’s taking the punches—Kremlin drone strikes, the bombing of the Kerch Strait Bridge, Nord Stream sabotage—but refusing to escalate.

Why? Because he knows the longer this drags on, the more the financial noose tightens around the West. Russia can outlast the West’s proxy war tactics, and as long as Putin doesn’t give the globalists their “just war” narrative, the West’s position becomes more desperate.

Final Round: The Global Debt Trap Snaps Shut

In the end, it all comes back to money. Europe, Britain, and the U.S. are sinking deeper into debt and instability. Ukraine is just the latest pawn in a centuries-old chess match for control of global resources. But here’s the kicker: Putin isn’t playing by their rules. He’s seen their game and is refusing to let them draw him into a full-blown conflict. As the West tightens the screws, they’re actually tightening the noose around their own necks.

So while the media keeps pushing the war-for-freedom narrative, don’t be fooled. This is the same old colonial hustle, dressed up in modern rhetoric, and unless the West figures out a new game, they’ll end up collapsing under the weight of their own imperial overreach.
