      Hot take: Many Western leftists have secret anxiety about the diminishing influence and the impending collapse of the imperial core, especially those who come from an academic/affluent upper middle class background.

      Eh; I have anxieties about the ill-preparedness of the American Left in the event of that situation. I'm less actually concerned about the US not being "in charge" of things, because we're already a net exporter of most the shit that keeps the lights on & people fed; and it would be far from impossible for us to maintain a domestic industrial base if we weren't run by fuckin' ghouls in human skin suits.

      It's the problem of getting them out of power that I'm actually worried about.
