The Most Important History of the USA – and Every Country

The history of the once glorious, ancient white pine forests which covered the eastern United States, and how they were methodically destroyed, is the most important history of the country. Imagine if huge areas of the eastern USA from the Atlantic coast all the way over to Minnesota still had magical, ancient, majestic old growth forests with trees that were almost as large as redwoods.

But in the sickening drive of "the economy" the natural environment of the USA was raped and destroyed. This sad history is unfortunately the same for man countries on Earth going back hundreds if not thousands of years.

By the time the first colonists reached the New World most of Europe had already been extensively ecologically devastated for hundreds of years. Imagine what it would have been like before that devastation, the wonder and magic of ancient forests across Europe and even the middle East. For example read about the cedars of Lebanon or imagine the enchanted forests that the first Germanic, Celtic, Italic, Greek, and other peoples inhabited

If you’ve never been in an ancient forest, they are magical places. You can feel the intensity of life force all around you. It is Earth at its most healthy and healing, and how human beings were intended to live.

I actually don’t like the original people who came from England and started raping the landscape. It is so different from the way a native American looked at the world.

From my learning about the native peoples in California, there is such a disparity between how they looked at the world around them vs. how many if not most of the Europeans did.

A native would see something like a Salix lasiolepsis (Arroyo Willow) tree and see the material to build a home or a container or even a canoe. They would see reed plants and see the material to weave things with. They would see the stalk of a fern and understand that it could be used to make a pipe to smoke from. They could use the extract of plants to stun fish in a stream to make them easy to catch.

After thousands of years of living in North America, they left almost no footprint. But the Europeans almost immediately started hacking away and devastating the local ecology of native species. It is a heartbreaking story.

People like to talk about how the population is influenced and controlled, how they are effectively brainwashed by the system, by elites who control power structures and media and who do not have our best interests at heart.

But how many people realize that without having been able to experience the magic, the majesty, the grandeur, and the profound serenity of ancient old growth forests that something critical and essential is missing from their understanding of the world?

If we cannot restore these precious environments of peak forest which take hundreds of years to achieve, nothing else matters in the end. No Earth that doesn’t contain places like that is worth living on, and certainly no country is worthy of allegiance to.

To be quite frank, I’m appalled at what some people write and say. They have such a profound lack of awareness of the devastating ecological history of the past few hundred years that it almost sickens me. It’s like another catastrophe just waiting to happen again if their ideas were actually put into practice.

Just because the current regime is so appalling and terrible doesn’t automatically make something that challenges it worthy of allegiance. Only something that has a clear view of a path towards restoring the ancient majesty and magic of Earth is truly worth following.
