What if US lost its place as hegemon? Could the Russian Federation really fill that role? They look more like a regional power to me. PRC maybe, but they seem more interested in expanding their influence through trade than hard power. I could be wrong though.
Maybe the US losing its place as top dog is just too scary to think about because of everything our leaders have done. Maybe other people will want revenge.
The U.S. SHOULD lose its place. It should cease to exist. As should all of the other states
Sure, but how is it likely to happen?
Edit: My bad, I read your reply wrong. I think the U.S. is beginning to strain. The way to weaken it further and get things tumbling down is with prefiguration and direct action. Which is happening. It's just not an overnight process.
But things are balkanizing here quickly
