We were talking if light terror starts to become a much more common occurrence.
People will get sick of it.
Like in Tims vid about the HQ being shot up. If that happens more and the cops don't do anything then the people will do someting.
Has Tim ever voice opinions about Secular Talk, I'm so conflicted with Kyle nowadays.
I've never not been conflicted with Kyle
But on the subject of potential civil war/destabilization of society, nationalist Terrain Federation equivalent when
Don't get your hopes up, history is a story of centralization and decentralization. Right now we are nearing the end of the age of globalism.
Globalism lead to the mass centralization of culture and wealth in the hands of a few, once the EU falls and things start falling apart there will be mass decentralization and geopolitics might return to something akin to a pre League of Nations climate.
What part of that undermines my "hopes"?
Or was that aimed elsewhere?
A global government is undesirable
Too much compromise in policy would have to be achieved in order for it to work, and such compromises would make for a sub-par system.
"pre League of Nations climate" Um, so WWI or WWII?
Before the Great War.
Meaning lots of wars
The post WWII world has been the most conflict free in history
Yes
The current system the West is in was put in place in fear of Soviet aggression.
The United States funded the current world order to ensure peace and stability and to limit Soviet expansion.
Not initially
Exactly. And to avoid another German War.
Or perhaps more accurately, European War
I wasn't talking about a global government, I was talking about a nation-equivalent
The principles are the important part, not the size of the society
Once the EU falls when an inevitable recession hits the United States should return to a policy of isolationism and concern ourselves with North and South American politics.
We can lend-lease to former EU ally states but we shouldn't become belligerents in foreign wars unless there is a global threat again like the Nazis or Soviets.
I would also cut ties with China and watch as their entire economy falls apart while moving industry back home and to other American nations.
Exports to the US alone make up approximately 12% of their GDP.
And in total exports make up approximately 40% of their GDP.
Tbh I wouldn't mind the commonwealth becoming a proper trading bloc, as a leaf
I agree
Rescue the UK from Europe
The entire anglosphere would benefit from increased solidarity.
If anything the Commonwealth is slipping more apart.
When QEII passes, Australia and probably Canada will take the opportunity to become republics
Australia is just waiting for the grand ol' dame to pass since they don't want to do it to her.
Charles on the other hand...
Are...are Canada and Australia not already republics?
No. They still look to the British Crown as their head of state
They don't have an elected head of state, just a prime minister just like Britain.
