As I've posted before, the American economy is mortally wounded at this point. It will end in hyper-inflation. I don't know when it will end, but it doesn't take more than 5 mins and some freshman level accounting to tell that our current deficit is unpayable.

As far as all the mass cultural retardation, IMO it's like marriage. When the money is bad, everything is bad. People don't really have the vocabulary to explain it, but they just kind of intuitively understand that everything is fukked. They have a far lower standard of living than their parents did, and no one sees any hope for turning it around. People just get nihilistic as fuk.

We are in the fall of Rome stage

Barbarian invasions
Corrupt degenerate leaders
Poofters everywhere
Economic collapse
Women in positions of power

No fall or collapse will occur.

But I can see a totally separated West and East bloc minding their own matters well until something really unusual occurs again.

Yes. Mass homosexuality and trans whatever always signal the end stage of an empire.

Aristotle was a homo, we all know that. So was Socrates

The last 6 roman emperors were all finooks too.

There is a consolidation of assets world wide coming together under a conglomeration of megacorps that will form their own government and control other governments directly.

Unironically the US is still in the best position compared to other world players.

China becoming the new global super power is nothing more than a meme.
