The earth is an island on a turtles back.

I think he’s accelerating the decline of the US empire. And I think a new multipolar world with China taking on a leading role will emerge shortly. Within a few years at latest.

And I think that will be a massive benefit for the world at large. An advanced modern nation with a progressive forward leaning intent. It can only improve on the currently disintegrating unipolar US led world order.

It’s gonna suck here for us in the imperial core. Just ask the older brits who lived thru the deconstruction of the British empire. But our decline will take place in months-years. Not years-decades. This was always going to happen. Never doubt it. But it would have taken decades and been a carefully managed decline as opposed to the swan dive off the cliffs edge we’re seeing.

Well too bad.

They might. But I wouldn’t want that.

The point is there is no point. No higher order. We’re an accident of physics.

Murica! Fuck Yeah!

Seriously tho. I wish we all died in 2012.

That’s what he does. Not understand things.

I know it’s a statistical impossibility that we’re the only life out there. I just don’t believe they’ve ever been here. Since we haven’t been either conquered or uplifted yet.

I want them to win. And they will. Short of global nuclear war they can’t lose. Venture capital can’t even dream of competing with central planning. Not even a question.

It’s not really trust. It’s more like hate. I hate this country. I hate what it’s turned into. I hate the oligarchy. I hate the captured politicians. I hate that the supposed opposition to actual fascists is a bunch of whinging cunts who’s primary concerns are about rules and norms. I hate that we are everything our propaganda told us about the rest of the world. I hate that our entire economic system is just a jenga stack of pyramid schemes.

We are a failed state. And if what I type on my phone helps our geopolitical “adversaries” get even 1 human hairs worth of advantage on this shithole then I’ll give it gladly.

Cool. I’d rather China have it than some American megacorp.

I trust China more.
