    I swear to fuck if we have another economic collapse where all the poor people lose their savings and jobs just because rich people can’t spend their money wisely, there better be a fucking revolution or else humanity is lost to our own sheer stupidity

      A revolution into what though? The American people are so divided and can’t seem to agree on a seemingly infinite number of issues that would have likely been non issues had the government not been actively creating them and fanning the flames of existing divides for most of its existence. If you keep your populace fighting amongst themselves, especially with issues tied to religion and morality, they will likely never actually unite and fight their true enemy.

      Anyway, if the USA fell then north america would probably either turn into a complete totalitarian state owned by the banks and controlled by a private police force. Either that or will break up into smaller territories where existing States will form their own unions, some more progressive then the ones that will bring back mask of slavery and fascism. If there were ever an actual revolution in the USA, the existing borders would be extensively remapped and many would be dissolved entirely. Not quite sure what would happen to Canada. Maybe it would absorb some of the northern states?

      In my eyes if theres a revolution that doesn’t also take down the global banking system, it will be a revolution in name only.

    I love seeing this happen. All those taxpayers who hated communism and revolution, and passively supported every deed their empire did to others, the payback time has come. Your government was never there and it will never be there to protect you.

    I almost forgot this, China was there in 2008. Who is there in 2023?
