i’ve shifted from a naive globalist to a staunch American patriot over the last 2 years. i’m not an imperialist but i would deffo build systems to protect our way of life and world view - liberty, education, and social mobility. we have our issues to iron out but i believe in us

maybe a spicy take idk

Honest blunt respectful feedback: the problem in this is that "our way of life" is a bit of a shit show in the sense that there are SO many people living a pretty dreadful life in America. So, if you are saying you want to protect a great lifestyle for the top 1% (IDK what's the right threshold) then, it feels off

I'm not sure who you are thinking of protecting against, but my sense is that we, globally, should start (re)thinking about (re)building together, rather than the mostly zero-sum-game it is today. Of course, this is a utopian vision, but I'm pretty sure there is a lot we can do to get there.

Important disclaimer: I am not American. So please take this with a grain of salt / cultural gap.

100% and ty for replying. exactly my blind spot :)

umm naively as an everyday person i feel worried about China and Russia mostly as a threat to global trade and energy
