• His conservative politics were notoriously in sync with right-wing Republican views, with regard to virtually every aspect of foreign affairs. Throughout his career Brzezinski has utilized his aggressive perseverance to foster his policies, keeping him in the forefront as a respected political advisor and critic. He has established himself as a deep thinker, as well as a philosopher through his many writings. His published opinions range from cold war politics to human rights to genetic engineering. His ideas are at once pessimistic and moralistic, especially with respect to the culture of the United States. In a 1993 interview he stated that the "self-indulgent, hedonistic, consumption-oriented society cannot project a moral imperative onto the world … Our moral consciousness has been corrupted by … the equal indifference we assign to all values as if they were competing products on the supermarket shelf. "
