Idk man, I’m not gonna lie and say I can see a way out or to be hopeful about a non-imperialistic, non-authoritarian future for America, this feels like a very lose-lose scenario.
If it were me, I’d get a passport and look at Canada, New Zealand, Australia (or even European and non-Western countries, but I do speak a couple extra languages so that’s my privilege) and just leave. I don’t have to see the ball roll downstairs, you know? And people have free will and aren’t just physical objects but I still don’t see a way out. What I see is the capital class reorganizing the furniture, restructuring American society to turn it from a consumer base to a slave base, and an international corporate paradise. So again, I think the best anyone in America could do is learn how to hop fences, learn a trade or get some quick qualifications (English teacher maybe?) and get a passport. Maybe max out some credit cards and never come back again? I know the majority aren’t that lucky to even conceive it, let alone do it, but that’s what I’d tell my fellow lemmings.
Mmm. Thanks for the comprehensive reply.
