    i personally am of the opinion that the current US strategy is to completely decouple eastern and western economies, completely de-industrialize the rest of the west, and reindustrialize the US itself. the nordstream incident is targeted at europe so as to ensure they have no way to save themselves should they become desperate and use the nordstream gas once shit really hits the fan over this winter.

    i believe the american bourgeoisie has correctly assessed that their hegemony, and capitalism, is to collapse in the near future without a major war. however, they also correctly assess there will be nothing left to rule over after a war and as such are trying to replicate the economic destruction of the previous world wars without an actual war.

    in short they want to replicate the global environment of america's post ww2 boom without a nuclear war.

      I had a similar hypothesis like this back in 2019, when it seemed like the looming recession was going to hit like a bag of bricks, when I also thought that even a major depression would not create the conditions necessary, what would the bourgeoisie do to truly liquidate or tamp down on the revolutionary potential?

      I then thought of biological and chemical warfare.
