Is an 'antihegemonic' coalition united by grievances the west's biggest current risk?

It matters that it knows better than to have behaved as badly in the world as it has - it's a distinction that underscores how no one is better at trashing America and its values than America itself.

no one has behaved better

no one has come as close as America has to the standard set by those values

that is more important

than it failing to live up to those values

when everyone else has failed harder

 

you do not seem to grasp that

at all

all you want to talk about is American failures

even when other nations have far greater failures

and you don't want to to talk about American successes

when other nations are nowhere near as successful

 

if you are going to bash on America

the least you could do is bash lesser nations even more

instead of saving your ire for America

and bashing it harder than nations that deserve far more bashing

 

but instead what you are doing is

most heavily bashing the nation that deserves to be least heavily bashed

and not bashing nations that deserve to be the most heavily bashed

which makes you look like an idiot

When you’re “the bestest” but only in your mind and others don’t see it – the definition of delusional.

BTW, it’s not about replacing the USA with China, Russia or Iran, it’s about realizing America squandered its political capital to such an extent, that now we’re moving to a multipolar world.

USA can’t do anything about it, they’ve lost credibility on the global stage.

America has the capital to squander

it still has vastly more than anyone else in this more multipolar world

Russians dispel myths about the effectiveness of sanctions.
The Russians are breaking the myths about the so-called "Western democracy''.
Russians dispel myths about the superiority of American weapons.
What else do retards need to understand?

Russia is not at war with Ukraine, it is driving Anglo-Khazarian devil out of Ukraine.                       

It is a political exorcism

calling a war a political exorcism

and calling the enemy the devil

doesn't make it not a war

nor does it justify a war

in fact, this is one of the dumber justifications for war I've ever seen

if you're going to be a Russian troll

the least you can do is come up with better propaganda to peddle

it is far more difficult to build a coalition against America

Chins and Russia don't have any friends

America has plenty.

 

Countries have interests and allies. Friends are few. America’s relationship with many nations is not as strong as it seems - China’s spectacular progress on the BRI initiative illustrates that. Much of the developing world is deeply sceptical about both Britain and the US. That’s just how it is I’m afraid. Of course, China’s opposition to US hegemony is hardly based on principle. Xi and the gang in Beijing know that the best way to secure their regime’s survival is to dominate the world.

America's relationships with other countries is stronger than China's relationships with other countries

China is nowhere near dominating the world and America is far more dominant

you still haven't pointed out any major geopolitical player with less faults

is it a secret? or do they obviously not exist

You still haven't identified a single American fault despite claiming you know of some. Why are you keeping them a secret?

In the meantime let me reiterate America's greatest fault and what makes it so great. America stands apart from run-of-the-mill rogue nations the way a priest stands apart from run-of-the- mill pedophiles. They simply know better than to behave the way they did. If you can't see why it's probably because your own morals are suspect.

Again, we’ve seen with Ukraine how difficult it is to put together a coalition against Putin. 30 years ago, China was a developing country with incomes like Africa. What do you think it will be like in 30 years time?

in 30 years time

China will be way behind America

the assumption that China will grow at anywhere near the rate it did for the last 30 years during the next 30 years is asinine 

China is a bubble, it's going to pop

you still haven't identified a single nation with less faults

yet you criticize it far more than any other nation

for faults that are far more prevalent in other nations

while singling out America

that's America Derangement Syndrome

Brzezinski made an insightful analysis in his famous book The Grand Chessboard. He pointed out that "Potentially, the most dangerous scenario would be a grand coalition of China, Russia, and perhaps Iran, an 'antihegemonic' coalition united not by ideology but by complementary grievances." His warnings seem on point…

“The enemy of my enemy is my friend.” In case that hasn’t been said yet.

But as much as they would love to do that and have for some time now, this is nothing new, the United States has to make that outcome really costly and painful. Too painful to make it worth it, for the red bastard communists.

ETA: Which is why the United States has to BE the hegemony.

Not the antihegemonic hegemony, which is communist authoritarian, but a democratic hegemony.

Actually, it’s only the west that thinks the USA has to BE the hegemony, the global south welcomes a multipolar world where there’s an option of choice.

The USA misconstrues itself as the shining city on the hill because they are the superpower; they get to write history…

However, if you want examples of terrible actions, I give you: Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Syria, Yemen, Somalia, etc.  And that’s only in the ME, too many to list all.   Launching asymmetrical wars of aggression to steal other countries’ resources is as low as it gets.

America singles itself out as the planet's Shiniest Beacon for liberty and freedom while bank-rolling and fist-bumping some of the planet's worst human rights abusers and dictators and all you can say is America, fuck yeah!

That's America Infatuation Syndrome and you still haven't identified a single fault.

America is the planet's shiniest beacon for freedom and liberty

other nations aren't

certainly not Costa Rica

It's exactly this mentality, the "American Exceptionalism" that's driving the fragmentation conducive to a multipolar world.

America simply doesn't want the job anymore and is willing to let others do more of it

that's what is resulting in the trend to a multipolar world, not the "rise" of paper dragons or paper bears
