There's nothing to indicate that the empire will not just continue on in another form following the collapse of its american iteration

I am not so convinced of that. Will there be imperial actions and thus imperial cores?

Very likely. However the hegemony that the USA could project onto the globe after WWII is a singular event for the US. The situation is very different now and while I do think that the climate catastrophe can change quite a few things the power ratio between the imperial core and the rest of the world will not be as such.

The blocks that are relevant in economic power after the USA's decline are the EU, Nigeria, India/Pakistan, China, maybe some South American coalition. Of those no one is uncontested in its economic resource extraction outside its borders.

There might be a future government which changes how China operates and turns imperialist as the USA was (currently that looks unlikely), but even then it has a few more hurdles on one hand and then there is the competition in the multi polar world that restricts projecting power, too.

Maybe I am more of a bloomer, but think contradictions do enough to fundamentally reduce the strength of empires in the next 50 years.

But we are witnessing its fall and it is glorious

Yeah but they were often so mono thematic.

I feel like we might have to have a struggle session about the intersection of settler talk, anti natalism, eugenic and race "science" at some point in the future as site.

Oh yeah, this feeling of coming home and starting to watch a David Lynch movie that started some unknown time ago. Real trippy. Then you watch it awake again and feel the same though. Lol.

Pick your flavors of spectre:

  • specter

  • trans-specter

An alternative would've been to say "Yes" and just put a ton of cameras and an audience into the backyard as well as a dozen drones or so.

For pretty much all commercial tasks 3 year old chips are more than enough. The capability to sustain industry is secured now.

Musk really wants to have breeding chambers like in the Matrix movies, while not getting the trans allusions in the movie. After the revolution we will see if Musk becomes like the last Emperor of China.

My fellow chap, I would feel most splendid if you might be so good as to genocide this group that I don't relate to currently. You are such a nice conversationalist.
