I think we’re in for some rocky times over the next few years, but I think the world will be better off with the USA knocked down a few pegs. They are too large and their general population is too easily swayed by nonsense.
The question is, will the population learn anything by being starved out or will they continue to blame anything but their own hubris?
And the rest of the world, particularly the EU, needs to realize that if they don’t pull close together they’re going to be squeezed out by large forces in the world. I mean look at the influence it already has as a bloc - if they’d cooperate more closely they could be an equal power to contrast China and the USA. Which is why there are forces working overtime to keep EU nations apart.
Good question. Germany only “learned” by being forced to change after military defeat (and even so, the AfD has been making progress). That’s not going to happen here - it will have to be the harder way, total societal collapse.

UK is still coming to terms with Brexit, which happened in 2020, and many will still argue it was a good idea, just badly executed.
we are, today, russia 15 years ago. i’m putting in as much work as i can to not be russia as it is now in 15 years.
I fear we are well on the path as was described by Robert Heinlein a while back:

Unfortunately I don’t expect things to go well I’m the states. I really hope I’m wrong in that…
