Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

I agree but I'll go a step further. The US needs a 1917-style double revolution (because let's be honest, if the current state is toppled by revolt American communists will not be leading it initially), followed by a gruelling civil war that will inevitably occur, followed by a great purge to root out all the remaining counterrevolutionaries still in the public institutions and military, and finally a cultural revolution to re-educate the masses and/ or send capitalist roaders to the countryside.
Anything short of this will not allow Socialism to become a reality and instead you're just gonna see a bunch of Balkanized North American states committing multiple genocidal wars against each other until China/ Russia/ EU is forced to step in to resolve the chaos.
why the hell would anyone do anything to help Americans out in that situation anyway, it's not like Americans have ever done anything to help anyone else out. Rest of the world has its own problems to deal with.
Two words: nuclear weapons.
