For Westerners, it will be terrible. This is due to the simple fact that despite all its terrible realities, which have been droned on about at length in places like this and so I don’t need to go into, the American assertion is the only orienting principle in the Western world. Without “Americanism” Westerners are left with a random plurality of essentially nothings and nowhere’s. Perhaps that’s a good thing in the long run, but in the short thing it’s a rather uncomfortable development.

The “west” used to mean christian “salvation” through work, now it is “liberal freedoms”, therefore the western ideals have always been the lies we tell ourselves.

Honestly, West isn't meaningful anymore to differentiate countries, at least in the meaning of a cultural thing. Only the extremist muslims are non-westerners now, and they only survive now because the Middle-East region is disputed enough that nobody can control it.
Chinese are Marxists, which is a western concept. Japanese, Koreans and Jews use their religions and tradition just for show, they are immersed in Western concepts and philosophies. Africans are mostly Christians and also fit into the same idea. The world is Western.

West thinks it's about liberal freedoms but it's really about cocksucking corporate control over every aspect of your life and the complete impotence of politicians before transnational finance. The West really means interventions and regime changes that only service said corporate elite and end up distabalising random shit hole countries and fucking them up forever. The West really means, the IMF (I.e. the USA) imposing "restructuring" on poor countries in return for loans with high interest.

Europe is to the West was Ancient Greece was to the classical world. If you remove Rome, you still have a classical world, just without a major part of it. Either way, this is all nonsense speculation since America isn’t disappearing. It’s merely shrinking in regard to the hegemonic power and influence that it once had. It’s possible that one day Americans morphologize into an entirely different culture and civilization that’s explicitly not-Western but not for many many years. The roots of “the West” as we know it, is Europe.

Non-Westerners can use Western technology, Western ideas, even be culturally, economically, politically dominated by Westerners, but that doesn’t make them fundamentally Western in their way of being. The Chinese, for example, appropriate Western ideology and Western technology, but it’s not theirs and it’s not of them. They arise like leaves covering the Western tree and though those leaves may fall, scatter, and lay across the various flora that also populate the garden, they’re not grafted onto the organism themselves and neither can they be said to belong to it. They only cover up and are useful to the flora in so far as they provide shade, detritus, and carbon for it to use in its own life cycle.

comeback? France already controls half of Africa, and with England out from the EU, French is swiftly becoming Europe's official language. Germany has a big industrial base, but is demilitarised, meanwhile, France has the third largest nuclear arsenal in the world. Combine that with that with the seventh biggest economy in the world, and you have an undisputed great power.

More likely than not, the USA will withdraw from western europe (save perhaps the British Isles) as she continues to weaken. She will like to have strong ally in the region with basically shared values in their absence. Make no mistake, the future of Europe is French.

I don't want America to collapse as such but a radical restructuring is needed. We need a totally new form of government at this point, the current constitutional order has run its course. I'm hoping we get an Augustus-type figure in the next century, someone who seizes absolute power and is also a brilliant administrator who reforms and reorganizes our empire in a way that stabilizes it.

It will never be a "minor power", population, money and nukes alone are enough to ensure that. What you mean to say is that it may cease to be the unitary hegemon due to China's rise, or a similar construction.

Places like fucking Argentina are "middle powers". The USA is not going to fall so far back as to below Argentina on the global chessboard. You're suggesting that America descends to the relevance of something like a Romania or a Ghana (actual minor powers), which simply can't happen by scale alone... Unless you suggest Balkanization, then you might be onto something.

When the American government collapses the lampposts will be festooned with homos and troons. Eden Pastora's vision for "the running dogs of capitalism" will come true at a scale he could have never imagined.

The greatest lamppost of all will be reserved for butters. We may have to fashion one special for her out of one of those giant power windmills. It'll be the size of the Washington Monument and we'll erect it in Times Square. Her fat little corpse will swing for a week as the buzzards and crows feast on it. We'll stream their avian gluttony in HD. All over the country bets will be placed on which soft, fetid organ they squabble over next.
