People don’t want literal genocide on Statesians. What people want is the end of the US Empire, including the state, ideally via socialist revolution. I also want the end of Israel as a state, and I want Russia to have a socialist revolution. It’s important to read into what people are actually meaning by their words, and not take it to mean that they want to kill you personally, unless you’re fighting to uphold imperialism.
I myself am a Statesian, and have no intention on dying.
People don’t support Trump “because he threatens US Hegemony.” Celebrating the decline in hegemony is not the same as supporting Trump or the damage the empire deals.
Means to an end, got it. So be it, If things end up as bad as you seem to predict I hope you can rebuild something from the smoldering ashes. I’ll still try my hand at organized resistance.
No? I do org work IRL for the purpose of establishing socialism. Being happy that the empire is losing its iron grip on the world doesn’t mean I try to make things worse to do so.
It’s like you’re intentionally taking the most bad-faith reading possible.
You’re right I conflated your opinions with those I have argued with the past on ML and for that I apologize.
However, If you think this ends when America dies that’s wishful thinking, the oligarchy is as comfortable in Russia, India or Brazil as it is in America and they seem to be shifting as they see the writing on the wall.
None of those 3 countries have the finance capital required to replace the US Empire. What makes the US Empire unique is its total hegemony. Europe comes close financially, but doesn’t have the hard power to keep that going when the US Empire falls.

That’s a charitable take but when people say they support Donald Trump because he “threatens US hegemony” while not acknowledging:
It makes it ring very hollow. Because if your goal was to replace it with technofuedalism we’re on track.

That wouldn’t be true for long when they migrate their capital as we’ve seen already happening with recent market ripples.
How so? Finance capital doesn’t shift that quickly, nor does industrial capacity.
