I sure hope so and hope its takes Israel, and a number of Arab governments, down with it. As someone who used to believe in the myth I am bitter and disgusted by what the US really is and always has been.

I couldn’t get very far through this briar-patch of buzz-words. But the collapse of the Soviet Union was brought about by material economic conditions, not by jumping up and down on their own dicks the way America is handling it.

I suspect the apt model for America’s future is the British Empire.

Except the US is about to suffer those material economic conditions because they’re jumping on their own dicks.

“Revenge” I believe is the correct word

Set in our near-future, it is a story of walking away from “non-work”, and surveillance and control by a brutal, immensely rich oligarchical elite; love and romance; a post-scarcity gift economy; revolution and eventual war; and a means of finally ending death

What an intersting premise. Hope that isnt spoiling too much I think ill have to find a copy through a nonzon source

When you look down at others instead of helping lift other up nobodt cares when you implode. I’m VERY sad for the regular non crazy american, you guys are the real victims.

No, the real victims are the children who were killed in a hospital or school bombing by the US. If the US is terminally weakened it may be less capable of bombing schools and hospitals halfway across the world.

The Neoliberals obsessed with civility are working for the same people the Republicans do.
