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

No, early on it was to help with reconstruction.

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.

When the PM of Canada, Australia, or NZ visit, they get only 19 guns

Does that preclude them from being republics?

I guess technically, yeah.

I think Canada and Australia should become their own sovereign entities, but that the commonwealth should ultimately stick together

granted I also want the UK to go back to its old values and stop being a fucked up proto-Orwellian shithole, and I want Canadians to have some semblance of national pride. I know my wants are out there

I demand increased royal authority over the Commonwealth.

And the reintegration of released colonies.

what does "go back to its old values" mean, when talking about the UK?
slave trade and aggressive colonisation with the occasional genocide? isolationism? weird huge dresses? inbreeding? the UK has a long and varied history and its norms have changed throughout

lol

pls say you don't mean the dresses, those were stupid

Oh, please. Britain is, to the best of my knowledge, almost singlehandedly responsible for bringing the contemporary slave trade to an end. They stopped first and put pressure on other nations to do the same. They are the reason slavery is extinct in the Western world, and the reason the East tries to hide it.

The Enlightenment was pretty cool too tbh

It had its ups.

And downs. *eyes France*

>slavery is extinct
lmao

Think of it more like polio than smallpox
