The Fall of the American Empire (1st half)

[rockinoliver]

What is the point of this video?

[thenormanconquest]

@rockinoliver to make you ask questions.

[generousg83]

OMG this is making laugh so hard

[thenormanconquest]

@generousg83 thanks for the kind words! i love the comments on this video, i never censor any of them coz they're all too hilarious! good to meet a fellow robot-eared individual!

[generousg83]

Thenormanconquest I just want to say this was awesome forget what everyone else is saying

[generousg83]

LMAO!!!! for anyone who dislikes this video is because you dont have robot ears!

[SuperMe4lyfe]

this sure was a waste of server space

[RiccoStang]

That was the stupidest video I ever saw. lol

[DJERTH94]

00:00 - 00:28 I put this video on before I go to bed... Helps me sleep

[Imat00l]

Just like the rest of his videos are failures. Give it up poseur.

[evilscotsmin]

haha this vids like being brain washed.....

[rauwstengeltje]

You Bastards! I am interested in the USA, but this music is just one big EPIC FAIL..

[fogt1430]

Good for you. Your video and music still sucks.

[fogt1430]

Music sucks

[thenormanconquest]

@fogt1430 you are correct sir. music is the worst thing that humans ever invented. if i could go back in time and kill the first musician, i would.

[mowgdog]

@thenormanconquest not disagreeing with you... but , im just wondering ... why would you do that? kill the first musician?

[omied1]

wow, that 'music' is terrible.

and what's with the random selection of USA flag type memerobelia?

[omied1]

Whats that f@***ing noise mate?

[justpickanyname]

post this video and other like it you think are good on GRATEwire com 

[roeroe305]

IF MY COMPUTER WAS TURNED UP I WOULD OF BEEN STARTLED OUT OF THIS WORLD HOLY SH*T. THIS WAS SCARY FOR SOME STRANGE REASON!!!!

[ryconster]

Pledge of allegence?? maybe in a court house or at boys scoutts, but anything else is pure ' FASCISM

[AlfredSwearengen]

USA is in decline because it is becoming less White, less European. This is the main reason for the decline of America. I see it all around me every day in a thousand different ways. The darker USA gets the more chaotic and unstable it will become-- plain and simple. Ever read about and look at photos of Detroit in late 1800s? Late 19th century Detroit was more civilized than 21st century Detroit. A superior civilization gradually devolved into third world, replica of Africa.

[BobMcCob]

As a non-american, the Pledge of Allegiance weirds me out.

[WantMonkeyToComment]

It is a rational calculation, on the assumption that human survival is not particularly significant in comparison with short-term power and wealth. And that is nothing new. These themes resonate through history. The difference today in this age of nuclear weapons is only that the stakes are enormously higher.

(Noam Chomsky)

[38dragoon38]

@Andrew598895 And don't forget that the bottom fell out of their automobile export market because the slaves kept going on strike.

[jfabproductions]

Dude american flags have been everywhere since we started because people were so happy that this was the start of a free democratic nation and i guess the exitedness of that just hasnt worn off people just love their country

[georgesorosisgay]

@flupmakintosh americans dont weustion thier gov? You know nothing!

[PEACEnum1]

Hey What will happen if the American Empire will fall?

What would it be??????????

[professornuclearbomb]

@flupmakintosh I agree the US is turning into a corporate theocracy. Also, I am an American.

[agamimnon423]

What the hell is this shit?

[saileddragonfly]

@agamimnon423 I agree, I thought it was a doc...then this crap came on

[dayDreemer14]

dude what the hell is this?!?!?!!? the music is total crap!!!!

[ferrynator15]

@dayDreemer14 this is no music any more xD

[talusan909]

Be it known. No Empire ever last forever. This is true and always. The native Indians thought they were poor in keeping out foreigners. Now, we are poor keeping out foreigners too.

[mzsassy25]

lol the music has to go!

[brutal6agani]

I got freaked out. lol.

[BaulMr]

America has been discovered many times, and always has been hushed back up. America has to be hushed up again and forgotten. Columbus has not done a greadiscovered again, hushed again. Now if you dont hush it again, it is going to destroy the whole world. He is one of the enemies.

Seven hundred years ago, America was known but then hushed up. Five thousand years ago America was known but hushed up, because whenever..it seems the very land is poisonous. It drives people crazy.

[BaulMr]

The whole of Christianity is sitting on a volcano. And America is basically a fundamentalist, fascist Christian country. It is so fascist in its ideologies that all Charles Darwins books, Ronald Reagan wanted to burn. His teachings should be prevented in every school, college, university, research institute, and all his books in all the libraries should be burned. Why?? Because his idea of evolution goes against the Christian idea of creation. This is real fascism

[Mr1234patriot]

@BaulMr America isn't Facist. We are the only western nation that has bravery and Christianity has nothing to do with it.

[mrchacko]

@Mr1234patriot

We're not fascist? What do you call using your tax money to bail out businesses? What do you call giving power over OUR currency to a private organization?

[Mr1234patriot]

@mrchacko We are no where near a facist country. All countries have their flaws. I would rather live in the US than any country under communism and/or dictatorship.

[LaughingMage]

@mrchacko Not fascist yet, but we're getting there. ATM we're corporatist or crony capitalist.

[jeeziss101]

@Mr1234patriot

typical american

[Mr1234patriot]

@jeeziss101 typical envious foreigner complaining.

[fixrifex]

@Mr1234patriot noone born on this planet should be called foreigner. Men of this planet think themselves as civilised, yet cannot recognise the universal qualities humanity shares. I dont blame you for your way of thinking, we are just what we are animals with reasoning faculties.

[MassTransit999]

Hhaahahhahahahahahah Dead hahahahha

[guadalupe160957]

USA is already dead... hahahahahahahaah

[MyMerlin1]

What Empire ?

[Strefanash]

I would rather the author said something of rational commentary. this barrage of noise might be his point, but i am not going to waste bandwidth on it

[Redbaron011]

America is dead.

[xXthemicXx]

@Redbaron011 no america will never die because it is a legand

[longlivegreatUSA]

@xXthemicXx and most experts believe the US will be the dominant superpower for the next 150 years

[tristramshandy3]

@longlivegreatUSA who are these "experts" and what are they basing their idiotic conclusions on?

Go spend some time in our nation's classrooms- you will see firsthand why we won't be the dominate power within two generations.

[longlivegreatUSA]

@tristramshandy3 No, the average white american is educated. But the idea of bad american schools comes from the idiot blacks and mexicans

[tristramshandy3]

@longlivegreatUSA education level is DIRECTLY related to socio-economic status of a neighborhood-so to say that whites are better educated is disingenuous and not really relevant- as they have a lower percentage of people in poverty.

Go visit a poor white neighborhood- you will see high dropout rates, high abortion rates, drug abuse- the fun stuff that comes along with entrenched poverty.

Our system perpetuates the disparity by using property taxes to fund schools

There is no equal opportunity

[TheFreeMindGamer]

Bad sounds and quality but underneath them? A serious message.

[Mattstify]

OMFG, YOU, Ear rapist!

[xXthemicXx]

@Mattstify hahahahaha

[mace1337]

This is fucking horrible

[TeamShmingle]

In school, every morning, you have to say the Pledge of Alligance , right?? Well I don't say it anymore because it doesn't mean anything because The United States of America NO LONGER EXISTS!!!!! LIES!!!!! WAKE UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[TheFreeMindGamer]

@TeamShmingle What? Do you actually have some sort of Pledge of Allegiance in the US? That sucks. I wouldn't say it if I would be told. I believe in freedom and humanity. Not that "God bless America"- bullshit. In Finland we have to say prays every morning. I don't do that so I get detention. I still won't do it. I'm totally on your side bro.

[Selrum576]

@TeamShmingle You're correct, it is time to rebel because we're not very far from civil war. Those who doubt the truth deserve to die with the fascists in our government. Our country is a fascist state now. We the innocent civilians will be slaughtered in the wars to come.

[XXGDUBSXX]

@TeamShmingle Big deal.

[TheSaboteur97]

@TeamShmingle what are you talking about.

[CARandDRlVER]

@TeamShmingle hahahahahahah I'm sleeping right now

[TheDmora]

Please. When you refered to United Stated don't call them "American" That is not fair for the rest of American Nations. If you want to make reference to United States citizens use another option. Give some:

US citizens.

Yankis

Gringos

[larueski34]

@TheDmora cowboys, warriors...

[TheDmora]

@larueski34 Actually no.. there are cowboys in other countries too (Argentina, Australia) and warriors are in all over the world. So are not exclusive from USA.

[larueski34]

@TheDmora are u from the U.S?

[TheDmora]

@larueski34 Fortunately I am not!

[TheDmora]

@larueski34 Fortunately I am not. Unfortunately I feel the hand of that empire in the world.

[larueski34]

@TheDmora where r u from then?

[TheDmora]

I come from Ecuador.

[ZtecWarrior]

@larueski34 Actually, the concept of the U.S. cowboy came from Mexico...

[SIC6demented]

USA do not know what war means!

[larueski34]

@SIC6demented we do too, as to we won wars and only lost one. where r u from. Besides war isn't everything! did u know th USA has enough nuclear weapons to blow up the earth 400 times! yeah thats wat i thought. Check out this vid:::A World Without America:: the image is of a flag!

[usa4ever12]

america will always be the strongest nation on the world we might lose some money and fight some tough wars but were not going anywhere. look what just happened in haiti who came to their aid the greatest witht he most money and most eqipment? america obviously did. everyone wants to talk about how were declining and this and that but as soon as people need our help who do they call america.. and we always answer the call as great as the challegen is the better

[jsyn1230]

@usa4ever12 LOL i dont think chanting slogans about how you will always be the best is gonna work LOL it only make you sound desperate. american will crumble unless its ppl wake up and stop chanting slogans

[FreindlyRanger]

Ha ha ha ha ha. You lunatic.

America is a great nation, but what gives you the impression that you are the only ones to ever help anyone?

The reason you helped Haiti with the most equipment is because you are 90 fucking miles away and you have the equipment.

America will always be the strongest nation until the next one. Or China calls in it's loans.

Fruit Cake.

[larueski34]

@FreindlyRanger more like 2,000 miles.

did u flunk geography or what! i travel to Florida 6 times in less than two years. It's exactly 1,350 miles from iowa!(where i live) and still from Florida it's about 400 miles to Haiti!

[FreindlyRanger]

Okay, my bad, 400 miles from the USA, I'll bow to your superior knowledge. Still, not far though.

I didn't flunk geography, we just didn't learn that much about US geography in Ireland. I musta been thinking of Cuba?

What's the 2000 miles thing though?

[a4zk42]

Did you know that the United States is spending money it doesn't actually have? It's just borrowing it from other countries, such as China. The United States national debt is well over one trillion dollars. Doing good deeds is great and all, but shouldn't your be more concerned for your own country first hand before another country? Where did the United States get the $100 million for Haiti from? Definately not from thin air, because the USA owes the air it breathes to other countries...

[larueski34]

@a4zk42 do u live in the USA?

[larueski34]

@a4zk42 besides how come we r the only ones that want world peace! and y do only us help other countries everyone gets jealous and crap! thats y we r in debt, becuase no one umderstands wat we r trying to do!

[a4zk42]

@larueski34 The United States of America suffers from a social-phenomena called a "youth bulge". A youth bulge is a population in which the majority of the people are at a moderately young age. It is proven that these nations tend to resolve conflicts with violence, hence Iraq and Afghanistan. This would explain the war of Vietnam, and others included. This is similar to the guerrila wars in Africa, such as the genocides of Darfur. I am Canadian, by the way.

[larueski34]

@a4zk42 r u still pissed off about the olympics?

[a4zk42]

Why would I be pissed? Canada won 14 gold medals. In every country but the United States, the gold medal count is used to determine which country is in "first". So sure, the United States is pretty good at coming in second and third, but Canada is the best at coming in FIRST! Also, we won men's hockey and came back and defeat you Americans after we lost to you in the preliminaries, which you all gloated about. But I guess that's irony.

[larueski34]

@a4zk42 ya ok um lets see here, home feild advantage, and nice lie, cuase Germany usually comes first then the USA then Norway then Sometimes Canada u dont have to lie just admit it!

[larueski34]

oh say can u see, by the dawns early light, what so proudly we haled, at the twighlights last gleaming, and the rockets red glare, the bombs bursting in air, gave proof through the night, that are flag was still there, oh say does that stars bangled, banner yet wave, for the land and the free, and the home of the, BRAVE!!!!!!!!!!

[a4zk42]

We offered just as much time to every country to all our facilities, thank you very much. The reason we won so many medals was thanks to our Own the Podium Program, which sponsored our athletes with sufficient funds to become masters. And just so you know, Gave proof through the night, that our flag was still there, is referring to the war of 1812, where Canada, which was a newly established colony, stormed into Washington, and burned down the capital. The Americans surrendered to Canada.

[larueski34]

@a4zk42 im not retarded and we didn't surrender to canada we didn't even surrender, the french did it! canada's got what health care! that's about it!

[a4zk42]

@larueski34 The French burned down Washington? Really? Actually, it was British-controlled Canada, was, in terms, our country. And do your homework, good health care isn't all we've got. We actually have more freedom and rites than citizens of the United States. Although Americans generally have no idea what's going on in other countries, because they're so centralized on themselves. Such a shame.

[larueski34]

@a4zk42 u seem angry to me u said u weren't pissed, another lie!

[a4zk42]

Hey, awesome, an empire, yay!

The United States of America will NEVER fall, SUNSHINE AND LOLLIPOPS!

Actually, no. The world's history of empires doesn't work out that way. Do you remember the Ottoman Empire? They used to control most of the Eastern world, but where are they now? The Roman Empire? How about the British Empire? Babylon the great? That was a city in Iraq which was close to Baghdad, and used to be the wealthiest city in the world... The US will fall soon, they're doomed.

[TheDmora]

@a4zk42 Indeed. Everything that could raise, could fall. Specially if the growth of an empire was done under weak bases, fast growing and lies hidden behind power. When the idea of the founder fathers was inmediatly misunderstood by burguesy families or transnational power. When the imposition of a new world guverment is based in economical and human restrictions and one side convenient agreements. When the needs to destroy and re-built convenient scenarios is done with the use of lie and fear.

[larueski34]

@a4zk42 all those empires were dum and imature the U.S. and the soviet union are the world's most dangerous countries. they don't like each other and both have enough nuclear power to blow up the earth 400 times. if there is a nuclear war between the countries who will fall? all the countries sorrounding them that's why us americans are lied about and framed!

[usa4ever12]

this is dumb even fighting 2 wars and being in a great recession america is still the strongest and welathiest nation in the world by far. the reason we borrow now is cause when things get better we will be able to re pay all our debts and get the deficit under control.. if anything as other world powers grow such as inida china germany the pressures will be off america as the world lone super power and america can get back to business of making money and employing our citizens

[Rico8458]

fascism is when the government becomes the largest employer in the nation, and only the banks, military and the gov matter.

[MazdakTV]

@Rico8458

Correction: Fascism is a political method used by the bourgeoisies to counter the working class using non-class related means/rhetoric/action. Often talking about nationality, ethnicity, etc. When you hear about "Illegal Immigrants" this is a use of the fascist method. The bourgeoisies will also use the government to empower private corporations.

The fascists also are keen to repress workers unions, and socialists...

[WolYou]

a good sign of upcoming fascism is when you see the flag of a country or its colors and symbols everywhere :)

[OlderG0ds]

is this music or is it designed specifically to make your ears bleed?

shit video

bring your inferiority complexes to catharsis

[onlythequestion]

Nah. I think you guys are missing it. I quite enjoyed this. The music is so video game end-level-boss-ish. You gotta admit: the idea of a 'flag' is kind of nuts. And yet it means so many different things. But at the end of the day, it's just a bunch of colors. It's like a control mechanism for our brains. You can't put those three colors together without a million signifiers going off in your mind. And then nihilistic music on top? Great video.

[radiofreeraven]

yes, if it wasn't for the grinding, ugly music, this could have been a good ad for the American Flag Makers and Dealers association (if such a org exists). You will learn nothing for this clip other than there are a lot of flags in the U.S.. Please try better next time tour heart is in the right place.

Paul

[jjpeterson1]

That dawns early light shit was really annoying, the music after it was even worse.

[motleycruesader]

SHIT MUSIC good vid! =D

[motleycruesader]

I'm not a fan of that flag...

[motleycruesader]

YE HAW MUTHA FUCKER!!!

[mackahoe1990]

America is the biblical Babylonia An sad to say america saw it's way as a super power on the back's of slave's an america will see it's way out as the modern day sodem an Gomorrah.....god bless the GOOD people of america trying to do the right thing to better humanity....

[jimbobubbadj]

It seems that greed and limited resources are what is bringing America down. I don't see how sexual preference has anything to do with it.

[Sariun]

This is the poorest made video I have ever seen. My ears are going to counseling now.

[kaentor]

DEATH TO AMERICA!!!!!! lol but i am rlly against america

[Lollers111332]

As an American myself, I can say I agree with most of the sentiments in the comments section. flangelet however is simply reciprocating the "American Behavior" with his own nationalism, i.e. "FUK U USA U SUK ROFL. IMA JRK OF THINKN BOUT TEH E.U NAO" which is fairly depressing, a real sort of "What the fuck is your problem" moment there.

But I digress. America was founded by criminals and tax-dodgers and to this today it is led by them. Sad.

[Clintville]

Wow, that was terrible.

[lvbuckeye]

wtf. the "music" is horrible. turned it off.

[animeupdated]

america will always come back together and fix it no its not amrica it you thats why japan will win youve given up hope you not america stand up for us to hope dammit i wont say anymore

[Chhaylin]

Fucked up music!

[replikant0101]

i have not lost hope on america completely. we just need to curb our excesses, i agree.

[Synduced]

Fuck the hating, this soundtrack is ear-genocide!

[flangelet]

Your country, the once self-proclaimed 'almighty' usa, is dead.

You are finished and your dollar is finished.

Well... about time!

You Earth-raping scum have judst about consumed nearly everything on the planet that wasn't nailed fdown and now you are getting financial and fiscal bellyache!

Good!

ByeBye... time to let someone else run the world.

They certainly cannot make a worse job of it than YOU did!

[str33twarrior22]

and people out there who dont think america can become fascist are idiots, its just as vulnerable to that as germany was. germany was a democracy, and then when hitler was in power, he declared that he would have to take away peoples rights like freedom of speech.

[str33twarrior22]

really, america is showing plenty of signs of becoming another totalitarian state like nazi germany.

[alansilvestri]

The same thing Natzi did with their flags ,put them everywhere.

[kaysho]

why the music!!

[crazysillystupid]

Wow, this is crap, I bet this guy though it was being all deep when he made this. Nope, sorry, part of the US National Anthem followed by 10 minutes of a terrible electronic noise is bad no matter what point you are trying to make.

[nooriginalthoughts]

Wow, I managed to last 18 seconds listening to that dirge and watching a blank screen before switching off. Great video!

[yomama629]

well I agree with the title, but wat's the point of showing us a bunch of US flags?

[crazysillystupid]

Apparently there are American flags in America.

[yomama629]

A little too much, I agree.

[str33twarrior22]

because the nazi's put their countries flag everywhere and on everything, this is showing the similarities.

[yomama629]

I see...I agree the level of patriotism in the US has become dangerous, I would call it Nationalism...

[BMBaccount]

@yomama629 It seems like the nationalists in America are slowly turning against the government though.

[xXthemicXx]

@yomama629 hahahaha 

[Nohoxe]

@yomama629 I call it Fascism!

[spainr]

terrible video. Take it away.

[LongIslandEddie]

You need to trade your camera for a skateboard...

[mitch61181]

what do you get when you give a retarded kid a playschool keybord a computer and a whole lot of meth? this vid and 10 minutes of wasted time.

[tubub]

lol. wait, their joking right. They can't be that stupid to be serious. if their joking and making fun of stupid conspiracy believers. hilarious.

[shmoo597]

this video is so stupid. why did you waste the time making this?

[m1rock]

what the heck.  What is this supposed to do give people a seizure?

[AnubisRising667]

Its not working then. Its just making me have to take a piss.

[m1rock]

It sounds like someone is rapeing a Nintendo.

[AnubisRising667]

Yep. lol

[happosai21]

lol if you are that ignorant then you deserve to be chipped like cattle :P

[lyscan]

I wnat to discuss the fall of american empire and how WELL it resembles the fall of ROMAN empire

Its quite amazing, even the christianity uprising before the fall is present in both cases, but I dont have a camera...

Can someone post a video so we can discuss it?

[Nomadlime]

Actually America at it's current state is not even close to the state of the Roman Empire at it's collapse. There are also some huge differences between American society and Roman society as shown below...

America: Rome:

innovators borrowers

moral ruthless

volunteer outsourced

homegrown drafted

military military

This is of course a very simple outline if you wish to discuss this with me further feel free to message me.

[lyscan]

where did you get all this?

especially the innovators borrowers part, they're both innovators at some point and borrowers at the other

Have you any Idea how much US owe and KEEP borrowing right now?

[andli843]

have you any idea how much other countries owe us?? and keep borrowing?? or the true value of our national debt, which is meassured using GDP verses debt??

[toolintention]

Everyone borrows and owes

[Baowulf00]

lyscan makes a wonderful point about innovatiors vs. borrowers

moral (the majority is, but we also fall victim to vanity, like the romans, and become ruthless in the face of opposition)

WW1-2 saw the draft in the united states, and selective service is what is left of it.

[randomusernamemygod]

Rome not being Innovators, them along with Greeks played a major part in building civilisations, the world still use their innovations or build on them. USA has made from innovations but many are owed by Foreigners. USA at times has been ruthless and Rome has been murciful same goes for Volunteer and Drafting. Whats funny is you compare the two empires militaristically. All Empires are bad and should be ended hopefully peacefully, US Empire is a continuation of Britain's.
