The good news is, is that a war with North Korea would greatly hasten the decline of American global hegemony, and alienate friend and foe alike. I kind of want it to happen out of morbid curiosity, hell what if our bloated pork barrel military apparatus turns out to be a paper tiger? American exceptionalism isn't a false reality. It IS reality, although it's been diminishing over time. And are you american? If so, why would you want decreased presence on the world stage? How much do you value your current way of life? It's easy to take the moral high ground until someone tries to take your comforts away. Do I have an answer for NK? Nah, I won't presume it. But I do know that accelerationism is straight up retarded.

America's like a 2 year old that fished a loaded revolver out of his grandma's purse. It was cute for a bit, it still shits its pants, it has no clue how the rest of the world works, and holy crap we need to get that gun away because it just killed 3 people

In free nations personal liberty is measured in guns

A good plan might be to airdrop guns and other weapons into North Korea to raise their liberty score

Eddy-Baby posted:Just loving lol quote:In its classic forms, American exceptionalism refers to the special character of the United States as a uniquely free nation based on democratic ideals and personal liberty. To be honest I learned it as "this is just some poo poo we made up to justify Manifest Destiny" and that was in a high school US history class and the teacher was a conservative Reaganite. In 2017 it means "everyone else does X but we can't for some reason because we are different." Like healthcare, for example. e: quote:The actual phrase "American Exceptionalism" is purported to have originated in the Soviet regime of Joseph Stalin as a means to condemn those who suggested that the U.S. was uniquely impervious to communist ideals.[3]

central dogma posted:Care to elaborate? Exceptionalism is an idea shared by Americans across the political spectrum. It's not some vague concept. It's rather well-defined. Sure, perhaps the definition I quoted wasn't the best worded, but to my understanding American Exceptionalism is not the idea that America is uniquely well armed or rich. Rather it's the idea that Americans are somehow more free, more democratic (and thus, obviously better) than the inhabitants of every other nation in the world. Hence, Eddy-Baby posted:Just loving lol

Benjamin Arthur posted:All nationalists think their country is exceptional, the idea is just a blanket to make you feel warm and special Yah, I realize this. The idea of exceptionalism is divorced from the truth in reality. I was just confused about why the clever guy up there was just loving lolling. Edit: okay, I see your reasoning.

central dogma posted:American exceptionalism isn't a false reality. It IS reality, although it's been diminishing over time. And are you american? If so, why would you want decreased presence on the world stage? How much do you value your current way of life? It's easy to take the moral high ground until someone tries to take your comforts away. Your correct, due to historical and materialist conditions the US has been fairly exceptional, since we had an entire continent to plunder and escaped the largest conflict in human history relatively unscathed. To clarify when I think of American exceptionalism I think of the idea that the above is true due to the blessings of a christian god, or that the united states has some sort of divine role to play on the world stage, or that Americans are some how more creative and imaginative than the peoples of other nations. I honestly think this mentality could lead to a third world war, and if America's global influence is significantly reduced, then theres less of a chance that it will be in the position to start such a conflict. Its wishful thinking, but I'd like to think that the result of us stopping the world police act would mean ending the MIC and the redistribution of military spending into things like healthcare, education, and infrastructure. I don't believe our current life styles are sustainable and some of our comforts are going away one way or the other. I don't consider myself to be an accelerationist, a fatalist maybe, but if I actually was an accelerationist I would have gone to the polls and proudly cast my ballot for that spray tanned imbecile. In reality I'm just sitting on the side lines laughing as the magatards blow the system to smithereens. Who am I kidding, I'm a nihilistic gently caress and my only morally high ground comes from the fact that I'm not going out of my way to actively harm others like the average republican.

It's wrong to think that if we didn't brutally exploit everyone we'd be unable to keep our petty material comforts. The huge huge huge lion's share of wealth goes to the top .1% and that's the only reason our standard of life would decline. And is already declining, by the way.
