    1. SS: Noah Smith, writes in his blog – “Imagine, for a moment, that the U.S. lost a major war against a coalition of China and Russia. What would the victorious coalition force our country to do, as the terms of our surrender? I’m not sure, but based on the settlement of World War 1, America’s list of concessions might look something like this:

      **Withdrawal**: The U.S. would unilaterally withdraw support for countries trying to resist Chinese/Russian hegemony. Furthermore, the U.S. would stop trying to wield influence in Eurasia, instead limiting its sphere of influence to the Western Hemisphere (or simply to North America).

      **Disarmament**: The U.S. would reduce the size and capability of its military by a significant amount.

      **Deindustrialization**: The U.S. would cancel industrial policies designed to compete with Chinese manufacturing, and instead economically focus on delivering raw materials and agricultural goods to China.

      This list is roughly similar to the settlement that Germany was forced to accept at the Treaty of Versailles after losing World War 1 — it’s only missing the large reparations payments that Germany was forced to make to the victorious powers.

      Anyway, now realize that under its new President Donald Trump, **America is very rapidly making moves in all three of the directions listed above.**” – article continued in link.

    2. Agreed. Even appointing Cabinet officials like Hegseth sends the message that the US is not interested in being a credible military power. Whether it is out of ignorance, incompetence, or collusion really doesn’t change the effect.

    3. Thats the great illusion America was never our its always been in the hands on industrialist

    4. When this article says “Imagine, for a moment, that the U.S. lost a major war against a coalition of China and Russia” I almost feel like we don’t actually need to imagine this. I think perhaps America has lost a major war to the coalition of Russia and China but instead of it being a military war that was fought on the battlefield it was an information war that was fought on social media. And America has lost. Russia and China won the prize of Donald Trump and right at this moment in time it seems like he is quite willing to give them everything they want. And they didn’t even have to face down the military might of the US to get it.

      Been happening for decades across both parties but now the veil has been completely lifted

    6. I mean.

      First day of office and Rubio held a meeting with the Quad. They are continuing to give support to Taiwan, even dropping their recognition of the One China Policy.

      They are banning Deepseek by threat of prison.

      It’s not that America lost. They’re just going crazy

      Im not a fan of trump and he should be lambasted for all his decisions, but my god, what is this revisionism? Americans were sold out by their leaders 50 years ago. The neoliberal globalization world order of endless wars and shipping all their jobs oversees absolutely destroyed the average American
