Change is in the air. I’ve written previously on the panic currently effervescing through the global elites, made viscerally apparent at conclaves like the Davos forum earlier this year. But in America particularly, a deep worry is now consciously gnawing the ruling class—they can see it, feel it: that the American Empire is on its last legs, close to collapse.
My money is on no, on all three counts. They won’t stop antagonizing China over Taiwan, they won’t let go of project Ukraine, and they certainly won’t abandon their most precious neocolony. These people have no reverse gear. All they know how to do is double down.
I’d be happy to be proven wrong though.
