Now India and China are rising powers and you are going back to being a regular super-power.
NOT that I don’t think you’re mistaken, but at the same time, India & China are about as @(*&#-ed as it possibly comes when it comes to being considered ‘super-powers.’
Well, I mean they are all fucked up super-powers now. My main point was that there was a period of like 20+ years where the USA literally ruled the world but didn’t do anything with it.
Reinforce the international order of economic cooperation guided by a rules-based system underpinned by the UN,
Instead there were just foreign adventures in the Middle East and a lot of navel-gazing internal politics about climate change/denialism. You could have set a template for all countries to follow instead of inventing “rolling coal”.

The main thing Americans need to hear but aren’t ready for: you aren’t better than India or China as super powers, in fact, you’re worse than China.

Yeah, I get you…
One thing that totally kills me is how the US just *screwed* with so many other nations over the years, mainly for profit, etc.
Same as every super-power in existence ever. Maybe …it’s just a super-power thing?
I am curious on what you mean by ‘didn’t do anything with it’. What should had the USA done in that time?

Billionares, Hollywood, Reagansim, War on Drugs etc. Including the things you said it seems they did a lot actually.
They did plenty with it: they brutally repressed the globe to create unimaginable profit for their ruling class.
