    China’s communist revolution, which was really just an authoritarian power grab, caused and continues to cause massive suffering. China has provided the arms for numerous conflicts. Don’t even try to play dumb.

    If North Korea had the power and projection it would do far worse than the US. I am not going to defend the US because it is rotten to the core. I am not also going to pretend any of the other major players would be any better if they were at the helm.

    The best way forward would be a peaceful revolution in the US and the establishment of the first actual socialist stateless society.

    This is obviously pie in the sky so the second best thing would be for the US to slowly demilitarize while stabilizing the countries they destabilized and making amends for past behaviors where practical.

    Concentration of power is what got us here and no other state has the solution because the solution comes from the people, not the corrupt ruling class using the violence of the state to maintain their privilege.
