I have a long-running theory that we're the US's testing ground for authoritarian nonsense. If they roll it out here and it doesn't get too much resistance, it'll show up in the US in the next 3-5 years.

India was the traditional testing ground. If she is no longer that, than US hegemony has definitely weakened.
