I get that collapse is a slow ongoing process but when the history books are written, what do you think will be considered the US' own Battle of Ravenna? What will occur that historians can point to it and say, "this was the effective end of the American empire." ?

    Feels like it’s what’s going on currently in Ukraine. Just waiting for the new adult in the room to come to the table and settle the matter because it’s clear US hegemony has waned so far that it can no longer keep the lid on the pot. I mean that’s what the Suez Canal crisis was for England right? New powers superseding the old as the old powers show their inability to grasp the crises of the moment
