The Decline of US Decline
Manage episode 390174364 series 3415156
In this episode of the More Freedom Foundation podcast, Rob and Ruairi discuss the decline of US power and how it has been exaggerated. They explore a few of the many, many factors that contribute to the US’s continued dominance, such as its military and economic power, and how these factors have helped the country maintain its position as a global superpower. Brief dives into topics as diverse as Gaza, sanctions against China over Xinjiang, and the Iran nuclear deal illustrate how most discussion of multipolarity is weaponized nonsense. The fellas also broach the grim topic of the responsibility that this hidden power implies.
This episode was inspired in part by, and quotes extensively from Tom Stevenson's recent article "America’s undying empire: why the decline of US power has been greatly exaggerated" in the Guardian.
Overall, this episode is a fascinating exploration of the US’s role in the world and how it has evolved over time. Tune in to learn more about the US’s position as a global superpower and the challenges it may face in the future.
