Who Is Colonizing Whom?
How Trump is De-Colonizing America From The Internationalist Empire
AT A GLANCE
The strategy has been preloaded into the subconscious mind of the masses for years.
They are attempting to convince those who still trust CNN, NYT, The Atlantic, and the usual roster of establishment talking heads that Trump represents “Empire”—that he is imperial, aligned with billionaire oligarchs, and must be overthrown to “liberate the people.”
Nothing could be further from the truth.
They are the empire. They are imperialism.
They are the oligarchy.
They are the colonizers, attempting to usher in neo-feudalism and the most sweeping form of colonization for ALL that the world has ever seen.
Beware.
The narrative that Trump is installing an authoritarian system in partnership with tech billionaires is fiction. It is a storyline designed to obscure where centralized power actually resides.
Furthermore, preserving the nation-state is not oppression but protection. Ordered national sovereignty aligns with God’s design for human governance, and its preservation safeguards liberty and human flourishing. The nation-state is good; its dissolution invites disorder, centralized tyranny, and ultimately neo-feudal control.
So when critics label Trump a theocrat, fascist, imperialist, or authoritarian, understand what is happening: projection. The very features they condemn are the structural tendencies of the centralized global system they defend.
And no, the Trump administration does not amount to theocracy, The Handmaid’s Tale, oligarchy, feudalism, sexism, or racism. That framing is narrative deception—an inversion meant to redirect attention away from the ideologically Marxist, centralized system steadily attempting to concentrate power in service of a fundamentally anti-human agenda.
Let me explain.
“American representatives” such as AOC and Gavin Newsom, who are advancing what amounts to a coup d’état against the American people, the U.S. government, and the Constitution, were in Germany to tout their anti-American Fabian-Marxist talking points.
THE DEEPER DIVE
By criticizing President Trump’s foreign policy actions as “imperialist, European and British elitists, true believers and defenders of the so-called “International Rules-Based Order, ” have exposed themselves. This charge, often echoed by British institutions and their American counterparts, is not merely wrong—it is clearly a case of projection. What we are seeing in the Trump administration’s actions over the last year is not American imperialism, but a long-overdue assertion of American sovereignty after nearly eighty years of managed decline (Degrowth) under a globalist system designed to subordinate the United States to a transnational empire, one operating through the lingering architecture of the British imperial order, now visibly failing and dissolving before our eyes.
Indeed, Trump is engaging in de-colonization.
To ask whether America is “colonizing” the world under Trump is to ask the wrong question. The more honest question is this: who has been attempting to re-colonize America economically, ideologically, and politically since World War II?
THE AMERICAN SYSTEM vs. THE BRITISH SYSTEM
The United States was founded in explicit rejection of empire. The American Founders understood the British imperial system firsthand: an arrangement in which a centralized power exercises economic dominance over weaker nations and colonies, extracting wealth, controlling trade, and governing from afar. Independence was not merely political separation from the Crown; it was a rejection of the imperial economic model itself.
What emerged was the American System: national sovereignty, economic self-sufficiency, local governance, and unalienable rights endowed by God—not granted by kings, parliaments, or international bodies. This stood in stark contrast to the British System, which relied on economic domination, managed dependency, and administrative control over subject populations.
Under the Trump administration’s National Security Strategy published in November and their actual foreign policy actions in the last year, the United States has, for the first time in nearly a century, begun to reassert its sovereignty in harmony with the founders’ original vision of Liberty. Withdrawal from dozens of toxic multilateral entanglements, resistance to global regulatory regimes, and a reorientation toward national interest rather than imperial management all signal a break from the post-World War II international order that had been subversively re-colonizing America into the modern iteration of the British Empire, today dominated by unelected European elites.
ECONOMIC COLONIZATION WITHOUT ARMIES
Classical colonialism required ships, soldiers, and flags. Modern empire does not. Economic colonization today operates through mechanisms such as “dumping,” currency manipulation, supranational trade rules, and regulatory capture. During the American Civil War, Britain attempted to weaken the Union economically by leveraging industrial dominance and trade dependency. The tactic was familiar then, and it remains familiar now.
Under the International Rules-Based Order, weaker nations are kept dependent through managed markets, foreign debt, and regulatory constraints imposed by international institutions. This is not free trade; it is controlled trade. It is empire without uniforms.
Trump’s insistence on reciprocal trade, domestic production, and economic independence is therefore not imperialism. It is de-colonization.
IDEOLOGICAL COLONIZATION: THE NEW EMPIRE
If economic dominance is one arm of modern empire, ideological dominance is the other. Today, empire advances not primarily by force, but by subversion, by reshaping a nation’s beliefs, loyalties, and moral vocabulary until resistance becomes unthinkable.
This is where the colonization of America has been most successful.
Children and migrants are being used as what developmental theorists openly call “agents of development.” In practice, this means instruments of subversion. By severing individuals from inherited faith, tradition, and national identity, ideological systems can redirect loyalty away from the nation and toward abstract global ideals.
This process follows a recognizable pattern:
Demoralization – A people are taught that their history is shameful, their traditions oppressive, and their moral framework bigoted.
Destabilization – As trust in institutions collapses, internal conflict increases and social cohesion erodes.
Crisis Exploitation – Manufactured or exaggerated crises are used to justify further centralization of power.
Normalization – The new ideology is embedded in law, education, and culture.
Irreversibility – The population can no longer recognize that it has been conquered.
This is not accidental. It’s doctrine.
FROM UNALIENABLE RIGHTS TO ADMINISTERED RIGHTS
We have seen this before under different names. The Civil Rights Act of 1965 marked a decisive rhetorical shift from unalienable rights—grounded in nature and nature’s God—to “civil rights,” administered, interpreted, and enforced by the federal state. Later, the United Nations’ language of “human rights” completed the transformation by relocating rights entirely within international institutions such as the .
Rights once recognized as pre-political and God-given are now treated as permissions granted by bureaucracies. This shift is essential to empire. A people who believe their rights come from the state—or from global authorities—will submit when those rights are redefined, rationed, or revoked.
The International Rules-Based Order depends on this inversion. Its ultimate goal is not cooperation among sovereign nations, but the greatest colonization project in history: the entire world as a managed colony, with economic activity regulated and rights administered by imperial institutions.
Modern Babel: Civil Rights, Human Rights, and the War Against the Lawgiver
One of the most consequential deceptions in modern political thought is the quiet shift from unalienable rights to civil rights.
SETTLERS, COLONIZERS, AND THE AMERICAN FOUNDING
This confusion is compounded by a deliberate distortion of history. America is often described as a nation of “immigrants,” but this flattening obscures critical distinctions. The early Americans were settlers, not colonizers in the imperial sense. They established a new society, built institutions, governed themselves, and ultimately rebelled against empire.
Colonizers, by contrast, are agents of a stronger power sent to dominate, extract, and govern a weaker society on behalf of an external authority.
To conflate these categories is itself an act of ideological manipulation.
EDUCATION AS A COLONIAL TOOL
The clearest evidence of ideological colonization in America is found in public education. Through Common Core, Social Emotional Learning, and critical pedagogy, students are trained to distrust objective truth, elevate feelings over reason, and view America primarily through the lens of oppression.
This framework draws heavily from critical theory and postcolonial thought, influenced by figures such as Antonio Gramsci, Herbert Marcuse, Frantz Fanon, Edward Said, and developed directly into American schools education by theorists like Joe Kincheloe, a disciple of Marxist pedagogue Paulo Freire, under the banner of “critical constructivism.” While these traditions emerged in different contexts, their core assumptions about power, culture, and social transformation have been absorbed into modern American education for many decades. Through transnational policy networks and global education initiatives fronted by UNESCO, the UN’s agency for one-world education and global citizenship curricula, these doctrines have been institutionalized globally through the UN’s World Core Curriculum.
The result is generations taught to see colonialism everywhere except where it actually exists.
Psychological Camouflage
This is about the Great Reset’s “Colonizer Tales”—a grand narrative inversion. We have been living in a reversed moral vocabulary. Sovereignty is labeled imperialism. Independence is branded extremism. The very architects of global management accuse sovereign nations of empire.
What better way to conceal the aggressor than to cast your opponent as the villain? Hide in plain sight. Convince a people to vote, protest, and riot against their own sovereignty believing they are advancing justice.
That is the oldest strategy of deception: invert reality, redefine good and evil, and persuade a nation to participate in its own colonization.
Concerning the Founding of the United States: Revelation or Revolt?
Revelation declares equality under God’s law; revolutionary ideologies from the French Revolution to Marxism, declare equality through denial of divine authority.
Trump’s foreign policy does not represent a return to empire. It represents a rupture with empire. The real colonizers are not those asserting national sovereignty, but those who seek to dissolve it in favor of global governance. The real imperialists are not those resisting entanglements, but those enforcing them.
The question, then, is not whether America is colonizing the world.
The question is whether America will finally finish de-colonizing itself.
The Founders were committed to breaking from empire, not becoming one. They sought to exit British domination and secure political and economic independence.
The task before us now is to break the hold of British-derived financial and ideological control once and for all—for the good of the Republic, and for the good of all.
The greatest challenge will be cutting through the propaganda designed to obscure and conceal this truth. If they can convince you that all is lost, that the Trump administration is not truly fighting for good then they win.
Get out and vote. We must recognize that a choice is before us, and our opponents are counting on confusion to persuade Americans to vote against their own best interests. They will also attempt to mobilize younger, heavily indoctrinated generations to take to the streets in outrage, fueled by narratives carefully crafted for them.
But with proper education and clarity, we can help the public see clearly, Lord willing.
Keep speaking the truth with gospel clarity.
Standing for Christ and ordered liberty,
