OOOOOOOOOO
It probably doesn’t matter, he’ll probably get a vaccine if it has any signs of efficacy once infected or else some high end treatment like harvested antibodies and/or artificial substances capable of blocking the viral growth cycle injected daily. The US president has access to medical care far, far beyond just about any other government official including incredibly radical experimental treatments that would be offered by foreign nations at no cost as a gesture because their success would buy quite a bit of good-will.
Trump is the most likely person to further weaken US imperialism and assure the decline of the US and possible balkanization. He’s thrown out nearly all of the most competent imperialists who are now firmly in camp Biden waiting to get back in. His very existence is alienating to western powers and the fact he’s withdrawing the US from international orgs, further isolating and weakening the US during his second term means I hope he continues to have the power to destroy Amerikkka. Whereas I do think Biden could repair the prestige of the US and put together a real coalition to hurt China. Even if Trump loses and leaves office, he’ll be better off alive and whining than dead with all his rabid fans quickly directed by the GOP to direct every ounce of their hate and rage towards China because of course “muh China virus”. If you people think the China hate is bad now from chuds… I shudder to imagine what it’s going to be like and the fever pitch of sinophobia it is going to create. You’re not going to be able to disagree even online with the China atrocity lies without getting sanctioned or targeted for real life violence as they try and avenge Trump.
Now if Biden got it and it didn’t kill him but left him a literal sleepy Joe who can’t pay attention that would be hilarious. Although kind of bad if he won because he’d be even more of a puppet of his advisors and the imperialist state and any weaknesses in his smooth brain for decision making would be thrown out the window with that.

What the fuck is this shit tier take?
“Hey guys we can’t make the US fall in disorder and chaos because basically everyone else would go right back to being caveman with sticks without the big western man to keep things in order”.
Like fuck off this is shit reddit level take I wouldn’t expect to see here.
Here is something you may not have realized: The world will go on just fine without the big red line going up. Heck some places may actually see a tiny little bit of peace and prosperity without the sight of a predator drone on top of their heads.
International trade would be thrown into chaos for one thing. The power vacuum would assuredly lead to conflict around the world. Not a good thing to have on a planet where internation co-operation is the only way we can guarantee that the equatorial zone will be habitable for humanity in the next century
Most understanding of the Bronze Age Collapse these days views it as a result of the complexity and necessary interconnectedness of the societies causing anything destabilizing to bring the entire thing down. For example bronze required multiple metals not all found locally to any of the powers; political and social order followed a centralized top-down hierarchy (palace economy); and agriculture by that time depended on significant division of labour and technology. When everything was disrupted and contracted to a critical degree by a series of smaller crises, some parts of society simply weren’t able to sustain themselves and the cascading failures took out everything.
The contention here is that the world now has a similar vulnerability due to complex global supply chains, and that a large enough disruption would collapse everything. Many populations depend on imported food to survive, production is so distributed that many end products are impossible to produce in any kind of scale (or at all) without supply chains millions of people deep. Take away half the oil production, half the internet, half the steel and see if the other half grows it back; hell just dial up the Thanos factor and eventually you’ll see what modern society’s bus factor is. It’s not about the white people being necessary to ‘keep things in order’, it’s just the idea that too many of the cogs needed are in America; the same would apply to any other disruption of a similar scale.
Luckily though we have capitalism now. Economies are able to respond rationally to systemic disruption and rearrange distribution optimally. This is true now because neo-liberalism patched out the bugs in the invisible hand code that stopped individual self-interest from always magically producing net altruism.
I mean, you’re right in the long term of course. But if the US collapses while the global economy is still based on the petrodollar, then there will most likely be a global economic collapse that will leave millions dead. Gotta crack a few eggs to make an omelette I guess.
It would literally do the opposite of that. The US is one of the world’s net exporters of food and is a leader in researching and developing technologies that would help with mitigating and even somewhat reversing climate change. Can’t do that if a Balkanization and all that attendant mass murder happened

Fuck off liberal x24
The Americans have made their bed, long have pompous, greedy, brainwashed Americans sat high and fat on the spoils of their empire of putrid death and brutality. It is illogical to assume they are going to change anytime soon. The US is the primary obstacle to a better world. This is a fact. What’s also a fact is a billion people will die from climate change thanks to American inaction, intransigence and the general defense of continuing the profitability of fossil fuels while adding the added evil benefit of making large parts of the world inhabited by geo-political and economic rivals hard to sustain human life in.
You ignorant dog. I don’t hope for millions of deaths, but I would accept the reality of the matter. Show me a realistic way to collapse the US quickly and painlessly and I’ll root for it instead. There is none. Empires collapse in very messy ways and especially so when they’re full of hyped up, hyper-indoctrinated, hyper-nationalist lunatics like the US is. It has lived hyper-violently and it shall die in the same way.

What collapse? What kind of substance are you on? This is one of those not even wrong level takes. I just don’t know where to start because it’s just bizarre. I have to assume you’re some sort of American exceptionalist chauvinist. Which begs the question, why are there at least 25 other such persons on this website? Please go find a fascist forum to jerk yourselves off about how indispensable the US is.
What order you fucking piece of shit? The capitalist order? The imperialist order? Fuck you.
I find myself feeling conflicted about this—assuming it is true, of course.
On one hand, trump’s utter ineptitude is a (however slight) positive thing for the PRC so his dying might not be such a desirable outcome but, on the other hand, if he did actually die it would be beyond hilarious and thousands of chuds on the internet collectively going mental over the occurrence would be a sight to behold.
herman cain was the same age as Trump and was healthier. Plus Trump already has had a lot of health scares, it may be something
mr president, your dead sir
