Not false equivalence. The worlds economic system, movement of supply lines and the like run through America. America is the largest agricultural producer. America has lots of inovation going on on a myriad of fields and is one of the cores of the Internet, not just the people using it but the functionalities, repositories of data and institutions.

The world would seize up into a gigantic depression if the CONUS suddenly joined the seven seas and became The American Sea.

The world is an all many times better of a place than it was a 500 years ago.  Gotta recognize that, also, if the US wasn’t in the position it’s in, another nation would be - and it would just fill that position more or less.

Actually, in this instance it’s called a metaphor.  Taking the example literally or perfectly logical or its content as truly & equally interchangeable mathematically  ie. -  1 -for- 1  - is retarded and is missing the point. 

It requires some imagination.

The world isn’t a human body. If it were, America would be cancer.

How about China, Russia, India, the UK, France, Germany, Italy. Spain,
Japan,  S. Korea, Saudi Arabia. Singapore, Mexico, Brazil, Puerto Rico, Iran, Turkey, and Canada?

Just to name a few....  Since you compare America with cancer, what do you think of them?  Genuinely curious as to what you think of them. :strokebeard:

If the people keep voting in politicians and the politicians are always deemed the problem, it sounds like the problem isn’t just the politicians, but the people as well.  How will you get around that obstacle?  Pesky little human nature.  :oldman:

You want a population just smart enough to be able to work & dumb enough to believe they smart.

Like.
People who blame the wealthy & government for everything , but at the same time, are too stupid to do anything that will really make a fundamental difference.  There are a lot of them. 


And no SunRa, the people stay in, and if you can’t see why, you need to do some re-examining.

The people could literally take over the nation in a day if they really wanted to :shrug:  not all politicians are bad and not all people are idiots....but the ratio is for sure not in our favor :/

Well damn SunRa...if real life was like Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind, Princess Mononoke, or FernGully I would have said this:

if Covid19 was Nature’s latest global reaction to fighting killing the cancer, then the patient’s prognosis isn’t looking up.

Russia did their part for sure. But would they have won if we weren’t in the mix too? I seriously doubt it. It was two fronts that really did the nazis in, and if we hadn’t joined the war, the western front would’ve basically been just Britain....and they weren’t enough. Personally I don’t think we would’ve won the war without both the US & Russia fighting against the nazis together.
