    Reducing US the reach of US hegemony? Yeah, that’s probably a benefit for a lot of people (supposing that other powers don’t just fill the power vacuum just to continue exploitation - “new boss, same as the old boss”).

    Suffering and death of millions of vulnerable people and non-combatants? Not so great.

    Do have to apreciate the great snark/turnabout though, even if I don’t agree.

      Yeah, the decline of the U.S. is going to hurt a lot of people, it really comes down to how many, who, and where. It’s ultimately a net good but it sure won’t be pretty.
