Why Did Someone Think This Was a Good Destination (Part 3: The Promotion of Unfettered Greed)

In this lecture Dr. Casagranda attempts to thread together the unraveling of the liberal project in the US and its replacement by a far right movement. He has committed to making this Part 3: How the Baby Boomers and the Silent Generation made one awful choice after the other.
Part 4 will be in Fall 2022 and Part 1 will be redone in Spring 2023.
Sorry for the quality of the audio.

[@jkolorath]

As an Indian, I have to point out some inaccuracies in your explanation about Bangladesh liberation War. Indo-Soviet treaty was not against China, but directly against the US. The US was opening a channel of communication to China through Yahiya, to exploit the Sino-Soviet split. As the genocide in East Pakistan was unfolding, and refugees pouring in, India intervenes and support the Mukti Bahini (freedom fighters). The US turns a blind eye towards the genocide, as Kissinger was flying to China undercover with Pakistan mediation. The US even actively threaten India with sanction, if they intervene. India waits until winter to ignite the war (the Pak airforce officially starts it) so that Himalayas are snow covered, ruling out a Chinese ground invasion. It has also the record of the second shortest war behind the Israeli victory in the 6 day war. Bangladesh liberation war lasted 2 whole weeks.

[@colibri1]

One of the worst parts of Reagan's negatively transformative legacy was his deregulation of media that led to the rise of unregulated nation-wide right-wing media starting at the end of the eighties. The unprecedented influence of a completely unregulated nation-wide right-wing media is the main reason Republicans/Libertarians, both the public and politicians, became as irrationally partisan as they did starting in the nineties and continuing today. It's why they spitefully and pointlessly impeached Clinton for something as unimportant as oral sex.

MIC IS BAD Pls redo asap and upload. This info is so so important

[@colibri1]

You unjustly glossed over George H. W. Bush's disastrous legacy, which was as bad as Reagan's since he was part of the Reagan administration. Part of the way Reagan attempted to get Americans to love war and aggression and militarism was to revive gunboat diplomacy and to only attack countries that couldn't fight back militarily like Grenada, Panama, Iraq, Libya, etc. Bush the First was very much part of that, as well as being the first president to explicitly and publicly remove a country's leader, a.k.a. "regime change," with Panama, something that had previously been done covertly (and in this case likely done to distract from the discovery of Reagan/Bush's illegal funding of its attacks on Nicaragua, etc). The 1991 US-led attack on Iraq was not a properly-won "war," as it was only one side attacking another - and Iraq offered to leave Kuwait and surrender at the outset, but Bush rejected that, saying Iraq was trying to "defuse the crisis." He then destroyed Iraq's entire infrastructure, in the process killing a quarter of a million Iraqis within a matter of weeks, many of whom, as on the "Highway of Death," were attempting to surrender. And that's to say nothing of his role in the 1973 overthrow of Chile's Allende and the installation of Pinochet, as well as the other, even more murderous Latin American literal Nazi torture-dictatorships like those of Argentina and Guatemala. Bush the First was as evil and bloodthirsty as Reagan, and the 1991 US attack on Iraq was not a war but an unnecessary massacre and destruction of a country, more decisive in the destruction of that country than the 2003 second US attack on Iraq.

[@khurramshahzad694]

From they way Muslims in India are being prosecuted maybe it was good that Pakistan became a separate country. Bangladesh should have been made an independent country right from the start. The people of East and West Pakistan are so different in language and culture and were separated by a thousand miles of a hostile country, they could have never succeeded as a single country. It is tragic that the separation was so painful and bloody!

[@jomolen8901]

As a Bangladeshi I agree. I don't blame all the Pakistanis for what happened, but Pakistani military which always had dictatorial ambitions was to blame. They also had unfettered US support. Now India, the BJP has Whipped up a feverish Hindu Nationalist doctrine and using it the same way the Nazis did in 1930s. " India has been humiliated for 1000 years and Muslims are to blame" is their dogma. So alas, history repeats itself. Dr. Casagranda's lectures makes me believe that we are doomed. I think in 50 years, human civilization is at risk of collapse.

[@Wisdomseeker1028]

Great lecture. One criticism is that Roy C said that Clinton getting a bj in the oval office is not unethical or worthy of impeachment. I have to disagree with this liberal stance of his and he is a major liberal. Society would be in sharp decline when people start getting bjs or having sex outside marriage. It is a slow and steady decline like whats happening in the US and UK.. leads to fatherlessness and single mothers depending on the state for welfare. Also leads to higher divorce rates when people are constantly sleeping around and moving on. Plus, getting a bj in a place of work is just wrong. There's appropriate places for that.

I enjoy listening to him. However I would recommend researching the war of 1812. It was not a complete failure. The war ended in a draw which in return solodfy the US control over the Gulf of Mexice and New Orleans. However the US did not when control over Canada. I feel saying it was complete failure is a stretch. Anyways love the videos and keep them coming!!

[@diwakardas9347]

Hello, professor. I don't think only the British, although evil and cruel, were totally responsible for the partition. The domestic parties such as Jinnah's Muslim League, and the INC couldn't resolve their issues even after multiple conferences held during late 30s and early 40s. British government simply exploited the existing fault-lines. For the event of partition, therefore, how much do you attribute to the domestic parties of India?

[@liamcoak7830]

Hi, it interference of the British in the negotiations is more the key, think Mountbattan

[@Believer1995ofGod]

Do some more research, the british drew lines without any care. It was all setup to not function. The did the same with the arab states, they were designed to not work without british supervision, and when they left, people who didn't want anything to do with each other were lumped together in one country. The british empire really were bastards. Basically "if i can't have it, than no one can have it".

[@thealster370]

While I agree the problem was the partition was not completed fairly like as the British were leaving India just violated the new border with multiple cities being forcefully annexed and the British did nothing to enforce the borders they drew. At least that's what I remember from history class. I'm from Pakistan btw.

[@Yatagurusu]

The JML wanted partition, but they didnt think they could do it peacefully. The British promised theyd manage the partition. They didnt. India got all the institutions from british india, pakistan had to start from square one. Which is exactly what Pakistan didnt want to happen.

[@3rdager]

Too simplistic a rendition of the break up of the British Raj.

[@sufianansari4923]

12:30 Ok this is an interesting interpretation of events during the 1971 war between India and Pakistan?

[@khandkersabahatrizvee8417]

here is where you get it wrong the partition of india wasnt really upto the british . the indian people actually lobbied for it. both nehru and jinnah pushed for the partition. what lead to the partition was indias budding hindu fundamentalism prominent muslim congress leader soon found out that the party they had started was gradually sidelining them for hindu fundamentalist leaders. muslim representaion in an an indian pralament would be rare if any in the future. so these leader most of them from bengal and later east pakistan decided that to ensure the rights of indias muslim population they needed their own country and lobbied for it and when nehru saw a way to get rid of his political rivals he also agreed to it. what later led to the Bangladeshi liberation war was due to the fact the same east pakistani and bengali leader that had established the muslim league and formed pakistan itself also soon fount themselves and their successors marginalized along with their region of pakistan in favor of west pakistan and west pakistani leaders. when the awami league was formed it was called the awami muslim league. so basically it was mass discriminatiion againt the indian muslims by the indian hindus that lead to india being partioned and later it was the descrimination of indian muslims againt bengali muslims the lede to a second partition and formation of Bangladesh.
