Imagine it looking like Russia’s collapse if Russia’s military was the most expensive in the world with the among the best logistics, and 800 military bases across 70 countries. That’s about the future of it.
It’s so funny to me as a European that, to explain evil to US citizens, all you need to do is to swap “US” for “Russia” and suddenly everyone understands
Are you under the impression that Trump’s destruction of the US won’t involve him doing 10 times more terroristic things all over the world?
Or that the powers that will invade the power vacuum left by a US collapse wouldn’t instantly start resuming the exact same terrorism, and worse, that you are (with every righteous reason) opposing when the US is doing it?
He must be in the “but I did nothing, for I was not _____” stage.
A lot of people seem to be under the impression that if open fascists spouting fascist rhetoric at every opportunity take full control of THE MOST EXPENSIVE MILITARY IN THE WORLD, that it will just self-implode into a nice neat little controlled demolition.
Lmao that is naive at best. And actually wishing for it is downright stupid. I don’t want Russia to collapse and kill itself, I want the scum leading their politics and militaries to be dealt with in the only manner befitting such filth. Anyone wishing different for the US or Russia, or ANY current or former world superpower that still has massive amounts of sway and firepower, is just wishing for collateral damage.
When shit hits the fan, it goes everywhere. When their backs are against a wall, they will strike out and take what they want, to hell with the fallout. Possibly literal.
A sad number of people just go “[large country] bad lol die” like their lives will be unaffected by such a massive global power shift.
100% right. It is the temptation for easy solutions.
Turns out all that was needed to eliminate war and oppression was to pick out one semi-democratic country that’s doing it, and don’t vote in their elections, and bingo! Fascists take over, country collapses, no war and oppression anymore. I am amazed it was so easy the whole time and people were wasting their time with all these other more complicated structures and efforts to get it done.
The US has been continually committing terrorist acts (or enabling them) around the world for at least the last 70 years.
If the US is collapsing, perhaps they will have to let up a little and focus on its own civil war and take the boot off of the developing world somewhat.
Of course the void will be filled by other terrorist nations. But none of them have the power and capabilities of the US. It’s like replacing a shooter with a stabber. Still shit, but less so. Plus, who knows, maybe the EU will finally step up.
America is sitting on enough nuclear ordinance to end the earths period of habitability… if she falls then who knows what happens with those nukes, is that really a future you want to risk?
No but we have to be very careful about handling Russia because of it. The world was terrified when the Soviet Union collapsed because of all the nuclear ordinance they were sitting on now being potentially insecure. Luckily it didn’t get dispersed and used by random warlords fighting in a power vacuum, that time, there’s no guarantee the same happens if Russia or America fail as states now
The US losing their hegemony doesn’t mean the US collapsing. Can, though. Still, an end in horror is preferable to an horror without end. It’s hard to justify a terrorist nation with there might be more terrorism while it crashes.
Terrorist shithole doing terrorist shithole things. They had a good run for over a hundred years. I hope Trump burns it to the ground.

Does your mommy know you’re on the computer

I don’t have a future.
Sounds like we should let Russia continue because they have nukes.
No but we have to be very careful about handling Russia because of it.

I mean, I don’t want the world ending in nuclear fire, no matter the alternative.
That’s what Russia is telling us as well
