In US, yes. In the rest of the world, no.
- anon291 2y agoJust flat out false. There's less international conflict today than ever, thanks to Pax Americana . Are there some rogue states that do not play well with American hegemony? Yes But these states can easily make good by simply following America's terms. There are few grudges being held. No one is going to kill all their men and enslave their women. American demands are not so gruesome. They're relatively mild and would likely improve the standard of living of everyone there. I don't make this claim vacuously. Broadly speaking, everywhere that has adopted American hegemony has done incredibly well for themselves and their populace. Rationally speaking, there's no reason not to.
