Which country will take America’s place when it falls? America is not the first and while history may not repeat, it often echoes and they won’t be the last.

If you want a religion that isn’t a religion you can join me in secular humanism.

Also, kudos to you for admitting an honest mistake.

After World War I, the United States returned to limited isolationism primarily due to war disillusionment, economic concerns, and political opposition to international organizations like the League of Nations

Two things can be true at the same time.

This right here. The US was isolationist prior to WWII but then got attacked and drawn in to active war.

Since the mainland of US was untouched by war directly, and industry boomed post depression and during the war they came out of it better off than Europe, which had a lot of rebuilding to do.

As a result of the war and the need for defense they established bases all across the globe and for the last 80-90 years as the political system grew more corrupt the increase of American hegemony followed.

I see what you mean on the growing healthy communities bit.

That plus private votes, nah, I’m good.
