Discussion about the 5th gen war
@adam-l I mean maybe, right? It’s a new paradigm so who knows what it will actually look like.
There’s more to, I assume, Russia’s isolation than their expansionism. For a start, the EU and member states almost committed suicide virtue signalling against Russia with the sanctions on Russian oil. The liberal hegemony of the EU has been so complacent over these decades that it hasn’t thought to buttress its position against aberrant behaviour from more powerful entities like the USA.
In short, Trump is calling it out. What the hell are you going to do about it? The EU can’t survive enforcing sanctions on the US, they didn’t prepare for it, like they didn’t prepare for Russian expansion.
Despite this reality, the EU still aren’t signalling a kind of unity or preparation. They’re absent, high on their own supply. In a pragmatic universe, that’s the definition of an unreliable partner. So “we” either shake of the malaise and face the reality of the situation, or we get consigned to the history books.
I know which I’d rather.
Read MoreMight does indeed make right, and all of the post-modernist gnashing of teeth over moralising and charity will be quashed by empirical evidence.
It's been bothering, so let me ask you. Real question.
Are you aware of the consequence the solidifying of this position will have? Namely, that Americans won't be able to travel safely through the world? They will practically be imprisoned in their own country for their own safety.
That's no theoretical hypothesis, it's what is actually happening with the citizens of another country which I will not name, that overwhelmingly support their government's aggressive expansionism.
@adam-l luxury beliefs exist out of luxury but a luxury hotel loses a lot of glamour when the power goes out.
@adam-l It’s relief that the atrophy of a failed system is showing signs of death, at long last. We don’t get to experience the future if we wallow in stagnant economies and unimaginative cultures.
@adam-l If that is the only outcome of the potential future, we’d deserve every single piece of misery foisted upon us.
@Stigma this sounds so much like the exhilaration of the masses at the outbreak of WWI.
My worry is exactly that more wealth and continuing dominance will mean even more luxurious living for the overlords of US society.
The women.
Meaning they'll be able to sit on ther fat asses and doom scroll much more, as well as put longer and girthier cucumbers up their vaginas for their OnlyFans patrons to view while jerking off.

@adam-l It's a brief projection into the future. Permafrost is declining, resources will become accessible and those without will be behind. It's a simple equation! The ECHR, EU, NATO and progressives can wring their hands and have all the committee meetings they want, and then continue to decline through inaction thereafter.

They kind of did it to themselves. They made such unpopular policies before getting total control first
They should have waited for the total control part before ramming through the most unpopular idiotic policies but they got cocky
