“Why? !! Why do you want to kill Cage!!!” Elena didn’t care about the Night Owl in front of her, but stared at the weirdo. She didn’t recognize who he was, but after Cage called out Gibson, Elena and Cage’s tacit understanding of cooperation for so many years naturally allowed her to guess that the person in front of her was Gibson!!!
"So you were lying to us from the beginning! Your ability... you just wanted us to steal that thing from Stark Group and use it on ourselves, right?!!"

Elena was not stupid. From Cage's reaction, she guessed that the person in front of her was Gibson. It was easy to understand why Gibson looked like this. After all, they had given the stolen items to Gibson. After stealing them, how could they not know what the item was used for? They had never thought that Gibson would use it before, but now everything made sense.

Nick Fury was actually angrier than Elena.

Damn, it was still a step too late. Tony acted too quickly. Now the xXx agents are completely hopeless. The survivors can no longer be trusted. Apart from other things, why did they gather together? As the leader, he actually didn't know anything about it. This can explain a lot!
This group of people is no longer trustworthy.

So Nick Fury took decisive action and killed them!

Although the Extreme Marines didn't know much about him, he would eliminate the slightest possibility of leakage!

"Why? Why would you betray us?!" Elena Shizong couldn't believe it.

Being killed by Tony... She wasn't really sad. After all, she was in this line of work, and one day she would die. It was a basic quality. But... she was betrayed by her own people, and this person was trusted by them so much!

"You were the ones who betrayed me first!" Nick Fury finally couldn't help it.

He is always afraid of being betrayed by others, but in fact... he is always being betrayed... this is really ironic. Nick Fury is very suspicious, he doesn't trust anyone, he will hide everything, even several things, he will never put all his eggs in one basket.

At the same time, I am very sure that there is no loyalty in this world. Loyalty is just that the price of betrayal is not high enough.

So he always makes secret moves and designs layers of defenses to protect himself and prevent himself from being betrayed to the greatest extent possible.

The irony is that he is either being betrayed or on the way to being betrayed!
This just proves that his theory is correct.

How sad.

"Is it me who pulled you out of your miserable lives? Is it me who made you useful to the world? Or is it me who made you go from being worthless to what you are now? But what about you? You actually planned to betray me!!!"

"We are working for the country! Not for you!!!" Elena shouted.

"Ha! Country! Don't be stupid, okay? From the beginning to the end, who cares about you except me? Country? No one in this country cares! I have done so much for this country! But what about them? They didn't even look at me when they abandoned me!"

Nick Fury is showing some real emotions...

He really thought so.

He always felt that he had done so much for this country and this world, but what did he get? Just a few mistakes and they became traitors, without even the right to defend themselves!

He knows exactly how this country works.

In this country, the life and death of civilians is actually not important!
American culture has always demonstrated an indifference to death. At the nation’s founding, its triumphant rhetoric of equality and democratic revolution overshadowed any acknowledgment of slavery and the genocide of its native peoples. Over the past two centuries, America’s history of nonstop war, conquest, and exploitation has given the public too much comfort. The people of Vietnam, Iraq, and Afghanistan have learned through blunt force trauma and high-tech murder that America’s support for democracy is often a threat rather than a gift. A nation that continues to spend more money on military defense than on social development programs, year after year, is headed for spiritual death. Even within the United States, there was (and still is) a hierarchy of victims. From impoverished urban neighborhoods to desolate Indian reservations, millions of Americans suffer from disease, trauma, and poverty while the society around them endlessly brags about its wealth and greatness. The indifference of American power, its aggressive right-wing supporters, and its indifferent middle and upper classes have constructed a society in which certain deaths occur at the margins, out of sight and out of mind. This becomes apparent to those paying attention when resources need to be allocated in local, state, or federal budgets, or when policy is enacted in times of crisis.

For the US government, the people have never been the masters of the country!

Although the United States has a formal democratic system such as one person one vote and two-party rotation, under the background of the capitalist system, the real masters of the United States are by no means the majority of voters, but the capitalists. In the book "Currency Wars", a passage from Mayer Rothschild was mentioned: "As long as I can control the issuance of a country's currency, I don't care who makes the laws." This sentence reveals the essential characteristics of the political and economic relations of capitalist countries such as the United States. The essence of the so-called "democratic politics" in the West is money politics, and the big capitalists are the real masters of Western countries. In the current American system, there are many large conglomerates with a longer history than the founding of the United States. They monopolize the economic lifeline industries of oil, communications, and media. Therefore, the real master of the United States does not refer to a certain person, but a group of big capitalists.

For example, there has long been a saying in the United States: "The Democratic Party belongs to the Morgan family, and the Republican Party belongs to the Rockefeller family." The words and deeds of these behind-the-scenes manipulators have a significant impact on American politics.

As long as these real capitals remain unchanged.

Then the United States will be fine.

As for the people?

Please! The United States itself is a country of immigrants, and their population has always come from all over the world!
For them, it doesn’t matter how many lower-class people die, because the whole world will give them blood transfusions!

They even think that if more people die, it will be more beneficial to them. After all, the newly joined immigrants are definitely cheap labor!

Even though Americans always say that they exclude illegal immigrants...the fact is that the United States cannot do without illegal immigrants!

For ordinary people, illegal immigrants are certainly bad. They disrupt public order and take away jobs from local people. Of course ordinary people are dissatisfied?

But for capitalists, illegal immigrants are great. They don't join unions, have low wages, are more hardworking, and can be exploited legally! Is there any better consumable than this?

Therefore, the United States' views on illegal immigration have always been polarized.

The lower you are, the more hostile they are to illegal immigrants, but the higher you go, the more welcoming they are to immigrants.

Because immigrants will only steal jobs from the lower class, but it is different for the upper class. These immigrants will only bring them greater profits!
Besides, when did the United States become a democratic country?
When talking about the United States, we cannot but talk about its democratic election political system, which seems to be the foundation of the United States. However, what surprises many people is that this rule of democratic politics did not exist when the United States was first established. In other words, the United States was not founded on democracy as the official boasts. In the eyes of the people of the world, the United States is a country that people hate and envy, because it is powerful and getting stronger and stronger. The strength of the United States certainly has its historical opportunities, but it is undoubtedly related to its political system. No matter how much hatred there is for the United States, any rational person will admit that the American political system is definitely not the worst in the world. In the eyes of those who admire the United States, the American political system is like the Bible, which is worth studying and reciting word by word until it reaches the level of one sentence is worth ten thousand sentences. There are quite a few countries in the world that have copied the American political system in its entirety, but there are basically no successful examples, and some are even worse than their original political systems.

Because the way they operate is not at all what they advertise!
What is the most fundamental rule of the American political game? The U.S. Constitution. Only by understanding the Constitution can we understand the United States.

The American Revolution was never fought for democracy!

In 1775, the gunshots at Lexington marked the beginning of the American Revolutionary War. This war was caused by the rapid development of the industrial system and maritime trade system in the United States, which was in opposition to the inherent economic system of the British sovereign, and was strongly suppressed by the British sovereign. The main component of this war was a large number of militia groups, which were composed of a large number of small and medium-sized farmers who accounted for 90% of the US population. The War of Independence lasted for 8 years, and a total of 40 people joined the army, accounting for 50% of the middle-aged men in the United States at that time. After the victory of the war, these retired militias were not only devastated by the war, but also had to bear the impact of labor shortages. In addition, after the defeat of Britain, economic sanctions were imposed on the United States, causing all American farmers to fall into debt. The states of the United States acted independently and forcibly reclaimed their farms to pay off their debts. However, the majority of farmers believed that they had paid too much in the War of Independence and demanded fair distribution of wealth. This fierce conflict plunged the states of the United States into violent turmoil and triggered an uprising of the middle and lower classes of the United States against the ruling class, which was historically known as the Shays Rebellion. This large-scale rebellion lasted for more than half a year before it was put down.

This incident had a huge impact on the ruling class of the United States at that time, including the big business groups headed by Boston, manufacturing groups, financial groups and land investment groups. Before the War of Independence, they believed that the main danger to the country came from tyrants, and the tyranny of tyrants would threaten the safety of private property. However, after Shays's Rebellion, they found that mobs were more terrible than tyrants. If power was in the hands of the majority, it would lead to the tyranny of the majority. At that time, the American elites cursed democracy, because democracy would inevitably lead to equalization of wealth and poverty, and then impact the property rights of a few people. In fact, the two words democracy and freedom are essentially contradictory. Democracy is developing in the direction of equalization of wealth and poverty, and it is the minority obeying the majority, while freedom is the protection of private property, which will inevitably lead to the polarization of the rich and the poor. However, the American elites must stand on the moral high ground and protect personal property. The U.S. Constitution was born in such a contradictory background.

In fact, before the United States issued the Declaration of Independence in 1776 and established the Confederation system in 1777, the 13 colonies of the United States had already declared their independence, formulated their own constitutions, and became sovereign states in a sense. However, due to a series of bills and policies left over from the British colonial period, endless disputes between the colonies, including territory, currency, debt, etc., led to a serious economic recession. This economic recession seriously infringed the interests of the four major groups. Without a stable national environment and business environment, their business could not be carried out normally. They longed for a centralized federal system to concentrate the power of taxation, currency, legislation, judicial power, diplomacy, finance, and monarchy in the central government. The Confederation government at that time was weak and incompetent, and they were determined to bypass the current Confederation government, directly formulate a constitution and enforce it.

The core of the US Constitution - the property rights of a minority need special protection!

Madison: "Our constitutional machinery must be designed to be sufficiently complicated to prevent the people from easily changing it."

In 787, the United States Constitutional Convention was held. Logically speaking, since the United States is a beacon of democracy and human rights, its constitution should serve its ideology, should be formulated for the rights of the majority, and should be decided by the people's vote whether it is passed. However, too many "shoulds" often exist only in the fantasies of the majority. In fact, the Constitution of the United States has never been formulated for democracy from the beginning. It was created by a small group of property owners for their own interests and is the product of compromise among interest groups. The Constitutional Convention was only a closed-door meeting of 55 people, and the Constitution was only signed by 39 people and approved by less than 2000 people. It has nothing to do with 90% of the American people, and no democratic vote has ever been conducted. These 55 people were not elected by the people, but by the state governments. There is no small or medium-sized interest representative among them. They are all representatives of the four major groups and slave owners. The goal these people want to achieve is to concentrate all power in the federal government to protect their property rights. Among these 55 people, Madison, the soul of the Constitutional Convention and the father of the Constitution, believed that the factional struggles that mankind has been engaged in since ancient times around property interests are useless to rely on the constraints of religion and morality. When factional struggles develop to an extremely dangerous situation, the majority of farmers may form an overwhelming advantage and infringe on the interests of the minority. The US Constitution is to effectively restrain the majority, which requires that the constitutional design is complex enough and that powers are checked and balanced. This system is used to control the majority and prevent the tyranny of the majority. Secondly, this system must also ensure the spirit and form of civilian politics, which gave rise to the separation of powers. This constitutional spirit was unanimously recognized by the delegates to the conference.

Therefore, the original intention of the American system design is to overcome the will of the majority and safeguard the rights of the minority. On the issue of constitution-making, the most discussed issue at the time was how to avoid the "tyranny of the majority" and prevent the majority of people from one day dividing their wealth through a democratic system. By definition, the majority refers to democracy, and the minority obeying the majority is an important principle of democracy. Then the so-called "tyranny of the majority" is actually equivalent to the tyranny of democracy. Therefore, the founding fathers of the United States established a constitutional system of elite rule. Although the power of democracy in American politics has continued to rise since the founding of the country, the elites have long anticipated this, so the American constitutional machine needs to be designed to be extremely complex so that civilians can never overthrow the rule of the elite through procedures.

Democracy on the surface, restricted democracy at the core!
Indirect elections, this electoral system from the last century should have been abolished long ago, but due to the unreformability of the US Constitution, it still exists in American society. What kind of machine can have such a strong control ability? This requires understanding from the complexity of its constitution. Generally, when we think of the US election, we all think that the United States adopts a direct election system of one person, one vote, that is, I can directly vote for the candidate I choose, which is reflected in the national vote counting system. However, the reality is not the case. The US election adopts indirect elections. Although they choose presidential candidates on the ballot, in fact, this vote is ultimately cast by the electors of each state, and the electors are elected by the state legislatures. Then the electors will make the final vote for the president at the end of December, and then the votes will be counted in January to announce the real candidate for the president of the United States. Why is it necessary to design such a complex system for electing the president? This involves the core problem that the design of this system must solve-how to prevent the majority from taking power. If the candidate for president selected in the national vote is not suitable, then it is possible that the electors will turn against each other and overturn the previous election during the second electoral vote count. Although there has been no example in American history of electors defecting and ultimately changing the outcome, such defections are not uncommon.

In short, the United States is not fundamentally a democracy as many people believe. Its main purpose is to resist the so-called "tyranny of the majority"!
This also means that the massive deaths of the people will not actually be taken seriously by those who truly hold power.

Because the people want as much as they want, and if there is not enough locally, there is plenty outside!
Nick Fury thought this way from the beginning to the end. He didn't care how many casualties he caused... because everything could be covered up and modified!
But what about him?
He has done so much, why was he abandoned by the US government first?
He is the one who was betrayed by the country!

He is not the traitor, America is!
