your logic is child like; the united states power is not.

[–] DonaldJMusk@lemmy.today -1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Ok. So the United States is still a powerful country then. Right?

[–] eldavi@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

it's a powerful country that started to lose power sometime in the 1970's. the vietnam defeat was the first sign that it had lost some of its power and afghanistan has confirmed that it is still happening.

So you are saying we started losing our power 50 fucking years ago?! Um, seems we are still pretty powerful. I get it, you hate the US. I don't care. We are still the most powerful nation in the world and people are too afraid to try to make a go of things without us.

it usually takes generations for an empire to decline and you've got it all wrong again; when you love something, you can see its flaws and recognize how to fix them.

Oh oh oh, ok. So generations. Because Lemmy is trying to tell me that it's all over for the US right now. You mean, that's not true. The US isn't over right now? Hmmm, wow. Imagine that.

Guess since we are so bad then, the other countries who think we are so terrible should work on not having to count on us. :)
