Empires usually end up collapsing under their own weight due to sheer incompetence and arrogance.

This is a paraphrase of a comment that I posted on Reddit some time ago:

China certainly exports ideology. For example, the notion of “mutually beneficial win-win cooperation” as opposed to the “zero-sum game”. These types of ideals serve as the foundation for China-Global South (South-South) cooperation to industrialize and modernize former colonized and developing nations rather than simply exist as raw material exporters. This way, they can finally pry the grasp of the imperial core on their holdings and become an independent, sovereign power. You could consider that exporting “revolution” or “socialism”.

Here’s to hoping that Europe can separate from the US and integrate with Eurasia 🥳

I don’t really understand what’s going on. Just recently, Japan was pushing for its inclusion into NATO and ramping up its military; meanwhile, they seem to be increasingly interested in distancing itself from the US, such as steadily dumping its US treasury holdings. In any case, I hope that this ends for the better and that the US-Japan relationship can finally be dismantled.

The House Financial Services Committee just held a meeting around a month ago discussing the very real global trend of dedollarization and how the US can mitigate or even reverse the trend. Keep in mind that this committee is responsible for overseeing the Federal Reserve and Treasury, so it was a pretty high-level meeting.
