Looking in from the outside (far, far outside), it seems like Canada, Europe and others Global North countries are finally learning what Korea, Vietnam, Chile, Guatamala, Iran, Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Syria and so many others have known for decades. That the US is a heavily-armed bully, that won't hesitate to use excessive force to ensure its dominance ("shock and awe").

(2/?)

Now that the US has entered it's Brezhnev period, totally dominated by corporate stalinists, the rest of the world has to start planning for a post-US future.

There are serious proposals floating around for dismantling the US as a single country, as was done with the USSR, and replacing it with an EU style federation. Where current US states can group themselves into internationally recognised states, within a voluntary-membership American union.

This is worth serious consideration.
