Planning for the Future
The American empire is not going gently into that good night. Just the same, it is collapsing, and its falling parts and failed pieces will create a fertile, fecund and wild new world, eventually.
From centralization will come decentralization, and from decentralization, liberty.
The State’s stage-managed chaos will tumble from the stage, flowing out from the cities, the theme songs confused and grating, the audience grumbling and nervous.
When empires realize they have crossed the rubicon, they contract rapidly to control the little that remains to it, the homeland. It could be the Fatherland, or the Motherland, terminology not native to Americans, but fundamental to the state as it seeks to identify its beating heart, its functioning liver, its screaming lungs.
For the US, there will be ongoing civil war, some civil, and some war-like, a map of which will bring to mind the latest map of Israeli occupation of Palestine, speckled, transitory, asymmetrical, in motion, red with blood and hate.
The political leadership is untrusted, and untrustworthy, a long trend in American history now impossible to reverse as the empire consumes and redistributes nearly half of the GDP annually.
Thanks to the Federal Reserve, the US dollar awaits nothing but sentencing. Judge and jury at home and abroad long ago pronounced the dollar guilty of perjury, false impersonation, and posing a danger to others.
The performative wars of the West – death and destruction a simple side effect – are increasing tapped out, and the people of the west are increasingly unable to fight, and unwilling to serve the decadent and failing empire. Other armies around the world may be directed to die – but will there be enough soldiers? Who will fight hand to hand for Empire? NATO and the US put Ukrainians up to a fight – and within a year, millions of Ukrainians had fled Ukraine, and withing two years, specialized kidnapping teams had to be deployed throughout the towns and countryside to grab draft dodgers and send them to the front to die for a Western imperial game, this one, NATO expansion towards Russia. We see the same challenge in the other main US
