    Agreed. When I read about imperialism it seems to me like a lot of pressure is just constantly being put on these other countries through many forms (propaganda, finance capital, military presence, etc) - I wonder what will happen when this pressure is released even just a little bit by this chaos.

    The propaganda network is currently being thrown into chaos, the world looks at the US very differently since the 2008 financially & it is stretched very thinly, the military was shown to be quite the paper tiger, such as when they went face to face with Yemen with nothing to show for it. The US is still very dangerous but it’s in such decay over the past generation, I don’t think anyone including the Dems have come to terms with it.
