    A lot of the things in the first part were already happening under Trump. Nato has been weakening, US losing credibility as a trade partner, Europe refusing to fight with US in Iran, trade in currencies other than USD increasing.

    Now you tell me exactly how you think there will be mass casualties from US losing it’s position as a hegemon. What mechanisms will cause these millions of deaths?

    Well my ideal detailed position would include dismantling of NATO, expulsion of American troops from all places that are not American territory. Dismantling of the petro dollar and USD led international payments system.

    Ideally I’d also want all corporations with revenue over €10M to be coops or nationalised in case of infrastructure (this includes cloud) companies, and incentivisation of unions. And require all international companies to pay their full taxes in every country they operate. Also capping CEO pay, wealth and inheritance taxes etc. This is not US specific but I believe large part of American imperialism is through their corporations.

    What do you mean be as detailed as possible? I don’t have a crystal ball bro.

    From what i can tell from a cursory LLM chat, it seems like millions of deaths are attributed to decreased life expectancy of citizens of former USSR. Well suck it up I guess.

    Armed conflict and such direct death toll seems to be at 150k.

    Because your argument of keeping the broken car chugging along rather than letting it breakdown completely and get a completely new one is absolutely silly for everyone except current day Americans.

    Everyone else benefits from the car breaking down completely and weathering the storm on foot for a bit to get a new car that could potentially work much better for everyone.

    If US Democrats are so different from US Republicans, how many policies from Trump 1.0 were reversed by Biden?

    How many foreign wars, interventions, coups and other nonsense that America does to other countries were withdrawn by Democrats?
