The US has alienated many of its allies in recent years, largely due to the vast numbers of false flag operations conducted by it and its allies, while its (key word here: POTENTIAL) enemies/rivals are making alliances. For example, India is not really a US ally, though mentioned above as such. Combined with China, Russia, the other two countries in the BRICS coalition, and Russia/China's other allies such as North Korea, they hold a portion of the world's population that is not to be ignored-and their economies are growing, while America would be ruined if its debts were called in, as would some of its allies such as Japan. US is also fast becoming obsolete in terms of missile technology (which is why Trump, intelligent as he is, is developing the Space Force, and maybe also why he is not renewing the weapons treaties with Russia, such as the INF Treaty and New START treaty. One interesting point made in the article above is that America was able to defend itself from incoming missiles with a laser grid missile defense system; I think, given that Russia now has the missiles that are most difficult to intercept (Avangard hypersonic glider missiles) AND the best missile defense system (S-400), that it is somewhat unrealistic to say that America would have the most advanced forms of this technology, but Russia would not. Now, while I may come across as anti-American or whatever you (or your neocon friends) may interpret this as, I still love America, and think that many of its beliefs, such as freedom of religion and right of private citizens to own guns, are good, and are not present in many other countries. Anyway, the whole purpose of my original posts (and probably some others too) was to point out that America winning WW3/dominating the world/taking over the world's belief systems, etc. in practically every sci-fi future scenario that we see coming from media publishers (game companies, TV show writers, etc) gets kind of boring after a while. I admit, my posts about Communism's "success" were misinformed, and I thank Univero for making me think about this and do some independent research; for anyone who read my earlier posts about China being "an example of Communist success" or whatever, I take that back, as I have now read about many human rights violations in China, which very few other countries today practice, and virtually none at the horrific scale at which China commits these violations. Anyway, who really cares about this "future scenario" anyway? If you don't like it, make up your own )). Here are some links for those interested:
