    Default America Has No Reason to Be So Powerful

    Eighty years ago, the United States made a tragic decision to pursue global supremacy. The project has outlived its purpose.

    Three decades into the “post-Cold War era,” still named for what preceded it, the United States possesses no widely shared, deeply felt purpose for vast global power.

    The next president, whoever he is, will not determine the future of America’s role in the world. Joe Biden does not recognize there is a problem. President Trump has no answers.

    Three decades into the “post-Cold War era,” still named for what preceded it, the United States possesses no widely shared, deeply felt purpose for vast global power.

    Because of the pandemic we're not debating the US military role in the world. But clearly it is literally costing us.

    "China is authoritarian and on the rise. But it is hardly Nazi Germany or Soviet Russia. China is open for business, whether on fair terms or not; the world’s largest trading nation makes a strange candidate for a totalitarian menace whose every activity closes off the earth. And unlike 20th-century rivals, China has long abstained from armed conquest. Though it threatens Taiwan, no one thinks it is about to invade U.S. allies like South Korea or Japan."

    As the article states, none of this is a US interest.

    Western Democracy, versus Dictatorships, is worth preserving.
    Supporting Trump is like supporting Putin, Xi, Mohammad bin Salman, and Erdogan of Turkey.

    Fuck that.

    Nothing you write makes sense. If you cannot control your anger make an appointment with a therapist.
