from my personal experience the need to collapse as you describe it stems moreso from the geopolitical position the societies of these liberal countries find themselves in moreso than the nature of their political ideology. it is in order to convince themselves of the need to continually take actions to protect their own interests and preferential position. I imagine it was probably pretty similar within nazi germany toward their opponents or within the soviet union against nazi germany. this is something I feel a lot of americans don’t exactly realize. anti-americanism is not as pervasive across the world as you may be led to believe and is definitely not at the same level of hate you’ll see with americans regarding china or other examples. this was especially weird to me when I first heard the song Eve of Destruction with the lyric “And think of all the hate there is in Red China” because the chinese really do not hate americans they just want to work together with them for mutual benefit. same sentiment was heard when putin gave his now famous interview with tucker carlson
I don’t think this has much to do with liberalism. howmany leftists, might be more politically correct for me to use neo-nazis as the example but whatever, have you talked to who say things like navalny is a nazi, all ukrainian troops are nazis, the free syrian army are isis, also isis is isis, israelis are nazis, kulaks were parasites, or the most classical one germans were nazis. just seems like people in general prefer to be against caricatures and comically evil people rather than humans
I’m not entirely sure howmany of the politicians in america actually believe their propaganda about ukrainian heroes and democracy and stuff and howmany are neocons wishing to deal a blow against russia
I feel like there are more poignant things to notice about gen z and gen a like how they’re increasingly conservative, kind of like how gen x were more conservative than boomers
I would say its in the interest of american workers to vote in trump to further the internal war amongst the capitalists there, divest away from the empire which is eating away at the american economy inside-out, and hopefully create a space to establish more working class organizations and capitalize on revolutionary conditions like january 6th
the social situation in america is quite bad, especially for young white males which is why after 80 year olds 25 to 35 year olds there are most likely to commit suicide, whites are most likely to commit suicide followed by native american women, and men are around 4 times more likely to commit suicide. I don’t feel envious of them in the slightest
