Imperialism Rationalization

The doctrine that frames military invasion, economic domination, and political subversion as a civilizing mission, a defense of freedom, or the responsible management of global chaos. It rationalizes resource extraction and geopolitical control as altruism, burden, or a necessary evil for global stability.

Example: The invasion of a resource-rich country under the banner of "spreading democracy" and "preventing terrorism." The imperialism rationalization uses noble abstractions to mask the strategic control of oil fields or pipeline routes, portraying conquest as a costly gift bestowed upon a backward region.

Neo-Imperialism

Conquer By Breeding (CBB)

This strategy is the most commonly used alternative to outright war when one population wants to annex another population's territory.

The strategy is allowed by the United Nations (inexplicably) since conquering a country by means of war is no longer tolerated amongst the international community.

The Conquer By Breeding strategy was used in the "plantations" carried out by the British in Ireland in the 1600's. The strategy is proving unsuccessful - the British now control only 2/3 of one of the four provinces in Ireland and the Irish nationalists within the area under the control of the British are now using the same strategy to regain the territory they lost to the British.


A more successful example of the CBB strategy has been used by the Albanians in their attempt to annex the Serbian state of Kosovo in 1689(Kosovo is part of the original Serb heartland and ancestral homeland of the Serbs).

The same strategy will be used by the large muslim population in the south of France very soon.
(The French were stupid enough to let it happen, so they deserve any problems which come out of an open-door immigration policy.)

Musical Imperialism 

The act of forcing someone to listen to your favorite bands, or bands you "think they would like" in an effort to justify your musical tastes. This usually happens when first meeting someone whose musical tastes are unknown to you.

Joey: How was the car ride?

John: It was okay, except Alli insisted on playing her iPod at full blast the entire time "showing" me all these bands I would supposedly like. I like music and all, but it eventually got obnoxious.

Joey: Well golly gee willikers, that sounds like a textbook example of Musical Imperialism.

Musical Imperialism 

Everyone knows that guy/girl who always comes to your party and stealthily plugs in their own iPod between songs. You were bumping old school Outkast, but now you have to settle for "She Wolf" by Shakira. You shrug it off because you're winning at pong at the moment, but let's be honest, that's musical imperialism.

Josey: Hey, man, I really like this country playlist. It's totally appropriate for the setting and provides a really good vibe....wait, who the fuck just put on Ludacris?

Hal: It's Ashley. She's always stealing the stereo.

Josey: Dude! That's musical imperialism at its worst right there.
