| firebush03 said: Trump’s approval will sink, but there is no chance the U.S. will be overthrown. There exist no armed militias in this country which could legitimately take on U.S. forces. (Plus, the CIA would prolly know of these plans well in advance. We are all surveilled 24/7 by our phones.) Everything is stretched too thin? Are you referring to U.S.’s involvement in potentially three wars very soon (Ukraine, Iran, China)? If so, the U.S. can drop Ukraine any day now; the responsibility has successfully be levied on the shoulders of the Europeans. Iran and Taiwan are likely the only wars we’ll be seeing for a little bit, though U.S. has been quite ambitious in the past, such as when officials had their sights fixated on five(?) different countries during George W. Bush. |
Why do you think in a revolutionary situation the U.S Military would be a unified entity on the side of the existing state?
I am talking about the collapse of the political-economy due to decades of mis-management and reduced trust in the dominant institutions over the course of a half-century.
These events compound. The current crises are caused by the second-order effects of major events of the 2000's.
The issue is much greater than Trump. Americans haven't trusted the dominant institutions of this society for decades now, and that trust has only declined in the long-term since.
