Yes the US is doing bad things. Human history is pretty much different groups taking turns doing the most murdering.
I’m not saying it’s a good thing, but can you show me a realistic path to stop it? Every time a power has fades in history, another one steps up to take its place.
Can you prove to me that the next one will be better than the one we have now?
Agreed, but are you suggesting we sit back and enjoy?
The only way to get over this stage is to call it out. Understand what is happening, create mechanisms that dissuade murderous psychopaths from positions of power.
For example, take money out of politics. As a politician you are not entitled to personal wealth. You have to give everything you have away and you live on minimum wage.
End political donations etc etc.
If I had to guess on allies I would point to the coalition of Western European countries who routinely join US imperialist wars like the “war on terror” in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Id say the military industrial complex is a murderous power structure. If you want specifics look at the Pentagon, CIA, and various “defense” contractors such as Raytheon, Palantir, and so on.
IMO the path to stop it is something like anarcho- communism which you can start doing in your own neighborhood by forming collectives.
What does “and allies” encompass?
What does “murderous power structure” even mean?
Sources?

Yeah basically came to say this
I don’t believe for a second anyone else would be better. They are currently just smaller.
