Lots of people talk about America being a late stage empire, I believe this is wrong.
My view broadly is that the American republic is dead and we’re witnessing the birth of the American empire.
...
The American Republic was compromised in 1913 by the British Agent Woodrow Wilson being installed as president, and further heavily degraded by FDR over his 4 term period. Since then we've effectively been wielded as an asset of foreign capital holders, primarily London based, though they learned that letting colonies know they're colonies is a bad idea.
As for the empire, that they're letting us think it's an American empire is just ego stroking. Those wielding this power seem beyond national allegiances.
The good news is, they do seem to be fighting each other.
We'd do well to let them, and do what we can to stay out of the way, and not get deputized in their fight.
