Yes the US is uniquely fucked, really. At least the previous global hegemon fought two world wars to lose its place. The US is basically committing geopolitical suicide at the top of its powers because of gender neutral toilets and the price of eggs. A rather pathetic country and people, sadly.
- MathMonkeyMan 2y agoTriggered. If we are pathetic, then look forward to our enlightened successors. I don't know what will happen in American politics, nor what effect it will have on the world or the permanence of those effects, but there are demagogues everywhere, America is not exceptional.
- twixfel 2y agoAmerica is exceptional in that it is the global hegemon self destructing before our eyes and for largely nonsensical domestic reasons. That is exceptional. And I don’t know about triggered, but rather just sad, because I was one of those people who really believed in the US at one time!

- archagon 2y agoWe’re getting fascism installed because a bunch of chuds want to be able to say “retard” again.
- yubblegum 2y agoThe British Empire was not inflitrated and was not pursuing policies that prioritized another entity's interests. > powers because of gender neutral toilets and the price of eggs. A rather pathetic country and people, sadly. What is sad imo is thinking that the above the actual reason for the shenanigans. US has been unlike itself since 9/11. Everything changed.
- twixfel 2y agoThen share the reasons. We are witnessing the end of the era of American global dominance. The four years of Biden were but a reprieve. Trump 2.0 is here to finish the job and end it all once and for all. The American Experiment has failed.
