America’s Ruling Class And China’s Ruling Class Are More Similar Than You Think

Has America’s 1% become our version of the CCP?

The Axis Of The Elite Has Now Been Set Up

Elites In The West Are Perfecting The Dangerous CCP Model

As American patriots head into Independence Day of 2021, many find themselves questioning the basic premises of the underlying themes of that day. The 4th of July is a celebration of American’s founding as a free nation. But what is the state of the American state today? Thomas Jefferson, enshrining our liberties in the Declaration of Independence, stated that governments must be formed that protect our rights:

“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness … [And] that to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed.” 

These rights, our founders declared, allow us to protect our values and our way of life. Two hundred forty-five years later, how are we doing?

There is a 1% in America that wields powerful influence over the rest.

Let’s take a look at the scoreboard. In the oft-cited issues of the day, we discuss censorship in public spacescorporate and military institutionalized wokenessCritical Race Theory indoctrination of our youth in publicly-funded government education centers, upending traditional cultural norms, domestic surveillance of political opposition, an election no one is permitted to questionenormous spikes in murders and drug deaths across every major American city coupled with the demonization of law enforcement, a financial sector that is increasingly working against the interests of working and middle-class Americans, and a manufacturing base that has been sold off to our greatest world rival, the People’s Republic of China (who bears responsibility for a deadly worldwide pandemic that likely emitted from their dangerous lab experiments in Wuhan).

If you dare to speak out about any of the above, you risk ostracism, reputational attacks, career termination, banning from public discourse, removal from payment processors, and in the most extreme cases, prosecution.

Why is this happening? Because there is a 1% in America that wields powerful influence over the rest.

After college, I spent several years living and working in China. In China, the rules are actually quite simple. The elites are in control, and everyone knows it. The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) accounts for 92 million members who oversee a population of 1.4 billion people. It’s not a political party in any meaningful sense. In essence, the CCP functions as both the ruling elite and the government itself. It is not a monolith; there are many aspirants for power, political factions, family ties, and competing regional interests. But what CCP members all share is that they, 6% of China’s population, are the “1%” that controls the rest.
