    The empire is expending itself. Their reigns of power are thinning and the slaves states are starting to pull ay their chains harder and harder. Testing the limits. Once they realize the west doesn’t have the resources to go after them they will break away.

    The new global power of China is rising and showing itself as an advocate for peace and development. Once China starts actually pushing back on the west the empire is done for.

      I think we’re already starting to see this happening. A lot of interesting stuff has been announced at the BRI meeting that’s happening now. Most importantly, the establishment of new trade routes around Eurasia. We’re basically seeing a new world economy emerging centred on China right now. And this is happening completely outside western control. The trade routes go through countries that are either neutral or openly hostile to the west leaving very little opportunity for western powers to interfere. And I expect we’ll see Global South countries increasingly choose to align themselves with this rising economic bloc.

      There is also a slow motion crash happening in the west right now, and at some point we are going to see major economic disruptions. If China manages to insulate itself sufficiently from western economies, then its model will gain a huge amount of credibility going forward.
