Obviously it's a process that is always brewing under capitalism but you know what I mean. Do you think we are close, like within 5 to 10 years close to a major declaration of war between the imperial core and the periphery or something of the sort? Would you argue it's already started?
I see Palestine liberating itself, I see solidarity with them along the people, I see the ripples that the Ukraine conflict has started, I see more and more revolutionary sentiment building. Could be an experience bias because now I'm more involved in real life so I see it more, but things just seem to be accelerating and I'm here for it. Much work needs to be done to capitalize and educate/funnel us all towards a progressive revolution and not a reactionary one, but I'm ready
I think it's possible, but I don't think it's likely.
World War isn't in the Global South's interests. Multipolarity is giving them opportunity to prosper.
World War might be the last option left for preserving Western Hegemony, but the decision on their side won't be made in the interests of preserving Western Hegemony, it'll be made in the interests of the capitalist class that controls it. And for them, war is a gamble. They'll only gamble if they don't see any other way.
And tbh I think this is why Israel is going off-script. They know the USA's empire is shrinking, they know that the USA won't be able to afford propping up a puppet in West Asia for much longer, and they know how the USA treats allies that have outlived their usefulness. The Zionists are gambling because they know they don't get to keep their Zion if things continue to progress peacefully towards decolonization.
It’s the only conceivable option, but it still couldn’t save capitalism.
