Four years? In ten years from now, the elections of 2024 will be called the 'Last Elections' and President Musk will arrest people who will call for their return.
I'm expecting a total collapse before that happens.
One can only hope. Death to the genocidal empire
lovely, now Lemmy has accelerationists.
I'm not an accelerationist, I'm just not a citizen of the US and the faster the empire dies, the better for the rest of the world.
cool. you're just poorly educated. Trump loves you.
not sure of the logic that got you to "US democracy dies == good for the world" but you do you.
Why would I care what Trump loves? Again, not USian.
US hegemony dies = good for the world. The US is the most evil country om Earth. Supporting genocide, invading Iraq and Afghanistan and Korea and Vietnam and Nicaragua and Guatemala and an endless list of countries, engaging in imperialism and unequal exchange, literally born out of genocide and slavery. Can't wait to see the US crash and burn tbh
cool. I won't dispute anything you said because I'm not trying to convince you, just educate.
so you know what happens when empires fall right? power vacuums! who do you think will try to become the worlds new power?
enjoy the endless wars and skirmishes as borders change and entire countries disappear overnight because the "evil hegemony, America" is gone! maybe not endless...but at least within some of our (albeit now shorter) lifetimes!
YAY! You win!
hope you aren't draftable, or near a warzone, or....you know what you'll find out.
You are literally defending the concept of "pax americana", a fascist belief based in the Roman "pax romana". You're such a brainwashed imperialist that you literally think like a Roman politician 2000 years ago.
Been enjoying the endless US-sponsored wars for 80 years now, can't wait for that to end though <3
Nah, a less genocidal and less imperialist country (China) will take the place as the hegemon. Not the best, but much better than the US at any rate.
