Having the biggest war machinery and surveilance apparatus of all times certainly helps. And what props up those institutions? A giant propaganda machine that has always been aimed at turning Americans into a horde of constantly overspending, easily enraged chauvinist boot lickers willing to cheer on any atrocity their ruling class commits against other nations and against its own populace. Turns out that kind of propaganda completely rots your brain after a while.

excessive military spending at the expense of everything else, and multiple industries entirely focused around propaganda.
