A coherent strategy to defeat the Monroe Doctrine

The recently-published «National Security Strategy» of the USA presents an unmatched opportunity of development through adversity for the nations south of the Bravo river, and an unmatched opportunity for Canada to curtail its dependence from its southern neighbour. This record describes several suggestions for those nations.

In the aforementioned strategy, the stateian state formalizes its intentions to implement (again) the imperial Monroe Doctrine over America; and to divide the world into imperial «spheres of influence» by concerting with the russian empire for achieving «strategic stability». Accordingly, the «sphere of influence» of the USA comprises America —to which the stateian document refers to as «our Hemisphere»—; and, likewise, the «sphere of influence» of the russian empire comprises the nations neighbouring that latter.

Framework

People from nations south of the Bravo river should understand clearly that, in the face of an active stateian imperial strategy, any attempt to hide themselves in a cocoon will result in an endless stream of aggression and hybrid hostilities by the bullies of the north. Likewise, any attempt to simply «neutralize» the stateian attack will result in continued loses and disadvantages for the defending nations.

Self-defeating statements such as «we do not compete with the USA; rather, we complement the USA» result pathetic and likewise worsen the imperial activities. If you strive to «complement» an entity which (textually) asserts «preeminence», thereat you place yourself as vassal. Moreover, efforts to appease empires only worsen the imperial activities, serve as prime examples:

Accordingly, the stateian attack demands a response that defeats any such effort.

For this purpose, the stateian defeat can get defined as «the accumulated events which inflict loses to the adversary, to such degree and severity that the enemy ceases and abandons its hostile activities». Notice that any neutralizing effort, which corresponds to defence activities, does not secure a defeat.

The stateian «National Security Strategy» includes attacks such as «rewarding political parties, and movements broadly aligned with our principles and strategy» and, under the excuse of combating drug-trafficking organizations, «the use of lethal force to replace the failed law enforcement-only strategy» —thus, to illegally murder persons in America. Hence, here results convenient to define some practical actions, classified by purpose.

Mitigating actions

  1. Set a legal framework to track remittances from foreign entities into domestic political parties, elected officials, political candidates, and the businesses and close family members of those persons. Then, periodically publish the data found.
  2. Require the identification of users of internet platforms. Beware that this does not include any restriction on the freedom of speech of those persons. Besides, this requirement results pertinent in a time where the usage of internet platforms by minors must happen under the supervision of parents or legal guardians; so the legal provision can serve also for requesting parent consent when minors utilize internet platforms.
  3. Establish a visa regime for stateian nationals which intend to visit parts of the country beyond designated touristic zones. Beach areas and other highly-frequented areas should compose those visa-free touristic zones. The purpose of the visa regime consists in sending a message to the stateian people, so that they do not believe the Monroe Doctrine.
  4. Operate a centre or department specialized in identifying, exposing, and countering foreign disinformation. Countering disinformation must happen by publicizing the truth, not by mirroring propagandistic practices.
  5. Create a public database of intimidating, threatening, or plainly hostile actions from the adversary. This public database for everyone —including inhabitants of third countries— to stand aware of the activities of the adversary in a simple, reliable, and efficient way. For example, any humiliation of elected officials, notorious nationals, and ordinary persons when attempting to enter into stateian territory must get recorded in the database.

Adversary-defeating actions

Effectively defeating the stateian adversary requires vision, since the nations south of the Bravo river must deviate from traditional action patterns. In popular terms, one could say that it requires to «think out of the box». Therefrom, people should:

  1. Foster the development of cultural, informational, commercial, and active-cooperation relationships with all the nations of eastern Europe. Nations from western Europe should get assigned a secondary importance in the relationships with peoples from that continent. Consider:

    1. The nations of eastern Europe stand in analogous positions in the partition of the world into «spheres of influence», but they stand under attack by the russian empire. They will find useful real help, the exchange of experiences in countering imperialism, and available options for establishing alliances; just as nations south of the Bravo river do need.
    2. Several major counties from western Europe still do not fully move forward from their own imperial past. For example, the british still do not master the ethics necessary to return the Parthenon marbles to the greek people; while spaniards still do not find the clarity for apologizing for the exploitation of american colonies, and start paying the corresponding reimbursements and compensations to american peoples. Relationships with such kind of nations will furnish little advantages in a true fight against imperialism.

    One key goal of the collaboration with nations of eastern Europe must consist in opening avenues for exchanging cultural for-profit products; for instance—

    • Integrating cinematographic and audiovisual-streaming markets by fostering the operation of local corporations which compete with those corporations which sell content upholding stateian «soft-power».
    • Fostering the operation of local branches of news agencies from partner countries, and publicizing their content; with the net-effect that both the russian and the stateian empires lose the narrative of the events.
  2. Likewise, foster the development of cultural, informational, commercial, and active-cooperation relationships with all the nations of south-east Asia. Those nations in analogous positions, but striving to fend the imperial activities of China in the so-called «South China Sea».
  3. Instrument heavy fines for those corporations which repeat stateian imperial geographical names and terminologies. Therefore, require mercantile organizations to:

    1. Describe all technical documents and specifications utilizing only the International System of Units. This directed first into retailers, so that these find an incentive to switch their suppliers into abiding corporations.
    2. Utilize «Gulf of Mexico» instead of «Gulf of America».
    3. Utilize «USA» instead of «America»; and «stateians», or other suitable term, rather than «americans», for denominating the nationals of the mentioned country.
  4. Switch informational systems away from formats and software controlled by stateian corporations, including but not limited to—

    1. Abandoning the usage of proprietary office formats and start utilizing open, collaborative formats such as the «Open Document Format for Office Applications».
    2. Either instrumenting or organizing the local distribution of an operative system based on open-source software components, such as the Linux kernel. This requires the establishment of an independent or autonomous organization tasked with detecting and correcting software security flaws in critical applications —an activity which, anyway, any sovereign nation-state should perform.

    Merely switching informational systems within a state-organization would produce an enduring effect which, subsequently, would spill into the corresponding society.

  5. Diversify the supply chains of informatic hardware. Hence, results counterproductive to set tariffs against chinese-made chips. An optimal solution, of course, consists in the local manufacturing of computing, data-acquisition, and communications equipment.
  6. Organize the transition from electronic messengers operated by stateian corporations into the usage of locally-crafted sofware. The creation of any such software can happen even by organizing a software contest. Nonetheless, local states should organize both for-profit and not-for-profit players so that those furnish the infrastructure needed for storing and transmitting the data.
  7. Demanding, as requisite for international cooperation in the elimination of (illegal) drug-trafficking organizations, that the USA implements—

    1. Measurable programs for attending and treating the hundreds of thousands of drug-addicts in its own territory.
    2. Concrete actions to remove those drug-addicts from the streets, so that they do not finance drug-trafficking organizations.
    3. A comprehensive strategy to hunt and incarcerate the thousands of drug-dealers which deliver illegal drugs, reporting statistics.

The implementation of all these actions results completely affordable; and very cheap compared with the massive loses which will cause to the adversary. Moreover, the performance of several of these actions can yield monetary profits.

A tantrum by Donald Trump may ensue, and there can become apparent that he does not reign over the capitalistic elite of the USA. For the capitalistic elite based in the USA will neither want to endure the loses derived from this strategy, nor accept the costs of, for instance, dissolving trade agreements as retaliation.
