lol hopefully they found the cheapest contractor and the walls will be paper thin
While living in the West may indeed seem depressing at present, it's crucial to remember that the West only represents a minority portion of the global population. A broader perspective reveals a more hopeful picture. The emergence of BRICS as a counterforce against Western imperialism is a significant development. Many countries are moving away from using the US dollar, and a whole new economic system is evolving outside of the West. Africa and Latin America are showing signs of independence, while much of Asia is shifting towards China which is now an economic and technological superpower, dominating the global economy. In my view, we are witnessing the final days of Western hegemony, and if a nuclear catastrophe can be prevented, the future looks promising.
While climate change is indeed a pressing concern, it's crucial to maintain an optimistic outlook. One reason for hope lies in the progress China has made in transitioning away from fossil fuels. Given that Chinese scientists are equally aware of the issue as their Western counterparts, the actions taken by China suggest that the situation is not hopeless. It appears that China does not anticipate problems to be so catastrophic that they can't be overcome.
Though we are living through turbulent times, these circumstances won't last forever. It's important to maintain a forward-looking perspective and focus on the bigger picture. The struggle against capitalism has been ongoing for over a century now, and the current moment represents just one chapter in a long narrative. The ending has not yet been written.
I don't see strong support for socialism in any of the states at the moment, so I would say that the US is simply not in a revolutionary moment at this time. If I had to guess, I would predict that US will descend into fascism first. It's also highly likely that the union will dissolve as a result of an economic crisis. We might see worker movements start being forged under those conditions.
The betrayal narrative is already starting to take root in Ukraine.
almost certainly
pretty surreal to watch western media talk about how the west is helping Ukraine
That's what happens when you let the west coup your government and put fascists in charge.
Again, track record hasn't been so good for US destabilizing nations in the past decade. I think you're vastly overestimating the capabilities the empire has at the present moment. In any case, we will see. I don't see any point arguing further about this. Either it will happen or not. I don't think it's in the cards.
US is very obviously far behind in terms of materials science, hence why they're still unable to make hypersonic glide vehicles. It's the same problem there that you need materials that can withstand incredible amounts of heat. I would also imagine this is basically a weapon designed specifically to take out high value targets like carriers, so it probably doesn't need to have a lot of shots.
I do think Trump will wind down Ukraine, but we'll probably see an escalation with China instead. Most of the hawks he picked are China hawks.
hey now, he's also trying for a nuclear holocaust
