The US is the world's hegemonic empire, and Europe plays a secondary role within that empire.
Oh it's you again. Last time we talked you lectured me about imperialism. I'm not really interested in a lecture today, or any day. We can have a conversation if you want, but I'm not going to subscribe to your dogma.
At a really general level - you do know that you're posting this to a forum, right? Are you posting here to engage with other people, or are you just posting to fulfill your vanity?
I don't mean this in a snide sort of way. I hope that you can consider opportunities in future to be more charitable to people who are spending their time reading what you've posted and writing responses. It's genuinely feels better to engage that way than to assume the worst of people, and to treat them like they are purposefully antagonizing you.
It's a fair point. Your assessment is missing one crucial piece of context: my last conversation with CowBee. It was really quite painful and I'm just not in the mood for another treatment.
