Does the USA need to exist anymore?
This post is a response to a question initially posed on Quora, and can also be accessed via “"
The U.S. cannot continue to exist as it does, mainly because it currently exists in a form that betrays its founding principles and values.
No matter how much power the few corrupt billionaires have or can amass against the people, they cannot kill the dream.
350 million people will stop them and make them pay for their betrayal.
The U.S. cannot continue to betray everything it claims to be without losing everything it has gained as benefits from representing those values.
350 million people love their country so much that they cannot sing “Home of the brave and land of the free” without feeling shame over how cowardly and submissive they have become by the machinations of monsters.
People like Curtis Yarvin will be vilified for decades, if not centuries, while the tech bros with overgrown egos will become cautionary tales for the next century to learn from. The Walton family should be experiencing concern, if not outright fear, for their future. The 50 billionaires who supported Trump’s presidency should be planning to escape to their bunkers. The Heritage Foundation president who threatened bloodshed should now be chowing down on some crow if he’s not too stupid to realize that he is about to reap the whirlwind for his arrogance.
The U.S. will either restructure itself to become more aligned with its professed values or it will destroy itself and destroy global stability in the process. The Find Out stage of the Fuck Around game the billionaires have played with the American people has only just begun.
If they don’t start issuing their mea culpas now, flaming Teslas will appear like quaint bonfires before Trump’s term is done.
The nation's future lies in the hands of its people, while the rest of the world still holds out faith that the American spirit is not yet completely dead.
We are all hoping the scourge of this century will be overcome by far less bloodshed and destruction than the scourge of the last century.
