          America will change, it’s a declining Imperialist state and wealth disparity is skyrocketing.

            I’ll give you that. I meant change in a positive light, but that’s hardly ever the case these days.

              I meant a positive light too, actually. Eventually there will be a point where the bread runs low and the circuses go empty, and the Empire will go the way of Rome. It’s unlikely it will go the way of Britain.

                Maybe we view ‘positive’ in different ways lmao. I wouldn’t necessarily consider riots and violent uprising (what happens when the bread runs out and the circus is empty) positive. Their outcomes though? Those can be.

          Perhaps instead of mocking America, you guys should’ve spent more time making sure politicians like American conservatives didn’t get elected
