    if America starts collapsing into a fascist shithole, at the very least they’d be much less able to continue funding coups, insurgencies, and assassinations in left-wing countries

    Maybe. I think the military-industrial complex will be able to perpetuate itself in this scenario. Fascists love the military and external enemies, after all.

      Oh, the military industrial congressional complex will absolutely carry on long after America falls, if this is the route America goes down - but they'd mostly be focused inwards, on oppressing the people and repressing resistance. Still a bleak look, but it will provide a window for our international comrades to build power (and hopefully reach a point where neoliberal states can no longer outright depose of them)
