Iโm really kind of in awe that Iโm most likely going to see the collapse of the United States of America in my lifetime.
Collapse is probably an overstatement. Germany didn't even "collapse" after WW2. Rome just fractured.
More likely just unseated as the center of power. It'll be really hard to truly collapse the US.
Hopefully we wonโt go route of the Russians or Chinese. But thatโs probably wishful thinking.
It's like knowing you're at the tail end of the Roman Empire while it's happening.
Right?But also, itโs important to note that the collapse of the Roman Empire took centuries, but I think itโs likely weโre gonna speedrun this shit within the space of a decade or two.
considering it's an active project rather than a whoopsie poopsie, they're trying to get it done by the end of the decade.
Didn't that take a few hundred years, though?
Did ostrogoths in 470 know the Roman Empire was about to collapse?
Can't happen soon enough!
