Soon please k thnx

The 250 year thing is basically completely made up BS

I hate to be nitpicky about a meme but I love to be nitpicky. This claims is based on bullshit statistics that the author made up or bent to his will. The Ottoman empire alone shows this to be incorrect but Rome too stands out. Besides, what would an arbitrary amount of time have to do with the collapse of complex economic systems. Its bullshit idealism and I hate seeing it.

I am begging the US to collapse though

Of course this is incorrect, go look up an empire and see.

... Roman empire got over 1000 years, Ottoman's got 623 years, Mongol empire only got 162.

...and Italy, Turkey, and Mongolia are still around, they're just not empires anymore. They're Nations.

Uh, yeah, not like this.

If you're sitting around waiting for the empire to fall, then it's never going to fall. Empires fall because people make them fall.

And it's going to be achieved with blood...

(I'm /j)

It's not correct, but would be nice.

I want to believe

Mean, mode, or median?

What's the standard deviation look like?

Despite all the and suffering it has caused and will cause, Trump admin has at least handed us the beginning of a breakdown in US hegemony as trust has eroded with other nations who are all busy pivoting away from it right now.

Unfortunately upon breaking the gridlock, other nations are scrambling to maintain the status quo rather than leaning into the future by redoubling commitments to address human and climate crises before it’s too late for the humans.

Rome lasted 1,480 years.

Made-up bullshit

Empires don't end, they fizzle out.

Even if this statistic wasn't bullshit, this comic has an inherent cruelty to it that ironically feels very American

It's funny to imagine our descendants in whatever America becomes defending the empire by saying it wasn't America's fault it collapsed, it was Israel's; hopefully though one of the things they admit is it's also because of culture war idiocy and other arbitrary, fabricated social divisions; EDIT: Also the empire's insistence on capitalism and wasting the talents contained in around 350 million people; China capitalizing (haaaaa, see what I did there?) on their population with excellent access to really good education and health services has turned their one billion people into its most powerful asset, meanwhile in America humans are also an asset, but in the form of slavery (wage slavery and actual slavery).
