      A collapsing United States could still kill everyone else out of spite. For example, if a civil war begins, various states could seize the nuclear silos and power plants, and then dirty bomb their enemies. The Americans would all be dead, but the rest of the world would have to deal with the radioactive crap and extremists leaking out of the States.

      The US 100% is getting what it deserves. But holy crap, I though other regimes fell in grace. We’re tripping over our own dicks and diving headfirst into our own feces.

        Nero stole an orphan boy off the street, castrated him, and had him assume the identity of Nero’s dead wife

        It doesnt feel too far off from that really. They always did want to be Rome.
