The U.S. empire is getting ready to cut its losses in Ukraine. This is something I’ve been expecting for a while as someone who’s watching the situation from outside the anti-Russian propaganda bubble, but additional signs of such a development have lately appeared. Signs which indicate how messy the process is going to be. The fact is that the U.S. bloc has committed itself to backing a regime which has committed gargantuan, mass trauma-inducing war crimes, and so many within the pro-imperialist sphere will never want to admit these atrocities have happened. So when Washington decides to forsake the Zelensky regime due to its becoming too much of a liability, a bitter split could emerge within the empire’s intellectual (or even political and military) ranks.
I hope I get to see the US fall in my lifetime, and I mean truly fall and not just recede into just a smaller version of itself like the “fall” of the British Empire or Spanish Empire. Name change, regime change, land back, socialism, etc.
Whether or not the US itself falls, its empire is in irreversible terminal decline. I just hope i get to see China reunified and Palestine liberated. The US breaking apart would just be a bonus.
I can’t help but see the US only falling one way. By taking the rest of the world with it in nuclear fire. The oligarchy will use the scorched Earth as hostage to retain their power. These “people” are an evil beyond what normal humans are capable of imagining. They WILL do everything in their power to hold onto it.
I hope I’m wrong. I hope China is able to Unite enough of the world and outmaneuver these genocidal psychopaths. I don’t see it going any other way.
