Brian ain't lying -
🇺🇸 America has always been a nation of "do what I say or I will murder you," at home and abroad, no different than the British or Romans before them.
This can only be dealt with one way, resolute preparation and power, both at home and abroad.
Otherwise, just like with the British and Romans before them, America will stomp on the necks of everyone, everywhere at home and abroad for as long as they're allowed to by cowardice and accommodation.
They count on the rest of the world desperately wanting to avoid confrontation, just like all bullies on all scales, all throughout time.
What all bullies fear is hearing not only the word "no" but a strong swift fist to the nose backed by the promise of another and another until they stop.
The British and French, bullies in their own day, eventually were met with fists and fire everywhere they stuck their noses, their empires collapsed and only America swooping in to take over perpetuated their global crime spree into the 20th and 21st centuries.
This was aided by large, powerful nations who helped smaller nations bloody the nose of imperialism everywhere it was stuck.
This is what it will take to end America's bullying today. There is no deal to make, no accommodation to consider.
Only time will tell if the world has it in them to do it again, and do it permanently - and we do not have lots of time to find out.
Because of the exponential advance of technology, whoever's order dominates when we reach a certain technological tipping point will cement their global order in place perpetually.
