Had an amazing lunch in a Syrian restaurant, food was so rich in textures and combinations of flavours. Then on the drive home saw an advert for burger king. This made me think that US empire collapse will actually be net benefit for humanity and give room for authentic civilisations to flourish. Diversity just like markets always win. At this stage US empire does feel like one giant too big to fail psyop. Anyhow wish transition won’t be too turbulent, when Soviet Union collapsed it was nasty and we still have civil wars happening to this day

US culture should be recognised as: a: valid coherent culture just like Syrian b: uniquely immature.. 200 years ago USA was independent and its people had no culture; far less cultural context to guide its later development The fact that indie restaurants have better food than KFC is no indictment on Pax Americana

100% agree with a. and b. Cuisine comparison is no indictment, view it more as a trigger for the follow up thoughts on diversity and inevitability of cycles.

Also I don’t it was an original thought, just repackaged from what I think I heard in Bronze Age Collapse series. https://youtu.be/B965f8AcNbw?feature=shared

I suppose you could view it as one of two things ‘This culture just isn’t competitive’ Or Worse is better Food may once have indicated an excellent civilisation but feels like that’s less the case now
