What a dilema for Ukraine! I feel their abandonment will be a microcosm for our leaving to the wolves.
I think a lot of Americans don't understand that the USA hedgemony isn't a divine right, it was a deliberate construction with tacit agreement of convenience from the western world.
Much like an economy, belief makes it so.
Much like the UK's arrogance has driven them into geopolitical obscurity, so will the USA's.
In 15 years, Americans are going to wake up and realize that their voices are irrelevant in the world. I don't know how y'all are going to handle it.
The USA became dominant by letting the world fight itself to ruins, then entering into the war late and declaring victory. TWICE.
Being the only mostly undestroyed nation after a world war is immensely profitable.
This is true.
I deeply, desperately hope you’re right. In the best case, the military (including the nuclear arsenal) gets as hollowed out as russias before that realization comes.
Hedge money
I'm going to be bummed, but it'll be deserved. Maybe future generations will stop being entitled assholes. Idk. Don't want to live in a disintegrating country. Really don't want my kids to. But I guess we don't always get to pick.
Look what's happening with Gen Z right now. They showed a lot of promise, then showed up to vote and turns out they have just as many nazis as the rest of us. We're going ride this death spiral all the way to extinction.
Not Gen Z girls
Wheeeeee......
Look at all this fun I'm having.
