Americans how does it feel to live in the strongest country

Meh

>>65731073
this

I have had absolutely no hand in making the country as strong as it is, so what am I even supposed to feel

>>65730914
It's sad that the US's power is waning.

>>65731144
Resentful foreigners have been saying this since the 19th century

>>65730914
Nothing, since we don't get anything out of it.

>>65731210
Nah they were full of shit and probably jelly. But since the 50s US power really has been waning and I legitimately think it's sad. I'm not trolling or baiting. 1950's USA was the fucking pinnacle of western civilisation. It was what every country strived to be and the goal to achieve.

>>65731073
Meh. Seriously? Your country is the most powerful nation in human history, greater than Rome, Han dynasty, Carthage, Persia and all the others, don't you feel anything?

>>65731103
You and your countrymen pays taxes so your government can keep being strong and powerful

>>65730914

In general or is this going to lead to a "how was your day" thread?

>>65731363
Nope, I feel nothing

>>65731363
>Your country is the most powerful nation in human history, greater than Rome, Han dynasty, Carthage, Persia and all the others,
Well you are not wrong, but the American Empire is just about 100 years old and its huge cultural and political influence on all of us only about 50-60 years. Time will prove if you are fully right. I don't think America will fall during our lifetime, but like all Empires they will experience some huge throwbacks

>>65731657
I don't know who, but someone certainly will. Think about India in a few decades.
Or maybe not even an old-fashioned enemy, because if the US-Dollar breaks down, their influence will drastically decrease (think here about China)
And I hope Trump will win. I don't think his 4-8 years will be enough to ruin America, but he will reduce American influence on Europe. A united Europe was never intended by the US.

>>65731657

We are in 2016 m8, the country that was on moon need the Russians permission to go to space, and when trying to punish them for Crimea, they delayed the spacial embargo to 2020 on Russians because they know they NEED them, that's the modern US.

well our large white minority cites are not doing well

many cities peaked in wealth and population in the 1960s or 70s

then you saw white flight due to high crime and high taxes, failing schools, ect

>>65732164
Latino birthrates have mostly stabilized now. We just had a few generations of them shitting out kids like crazy so now they're a huge part of the population. They'll probably reach about 25% of the population and then gradually assimilate until they're virtually indistinguishable like every other ethnic group we've seen in our history.

Seriously, go back to the 19th century and it was the Catholic Irish who were going to outbreed honest, hard-working Anglo-Saxon protestants. Hysteria about immigrants having babies is as old as America itself.

Sure feels like it sometimes, but if we can keep things from going completely to shit for another 50 years, I'll die happy.

Not looking good with either of these presidential candidates, though. Hillary's a scumbag with all of the charisma of Richard Nixon, and if Trump's pants caught fire as much as he lies, he would literally just be a head in a jar by now. I suspect he wants to nuke Mexico, and probably everyone else who isn't us.

>>65731843
True but we don't differentiate between when our country was formed and when it became an empire

>>65732352

you will never see amerishartia waging glorious wars, theyd rather hide like slithering snakes in the event of a true confrontation. remember theyre two faced cunts, and their wars are mostly fabricated towards weak enemies. theyre not confrontations towards true enemies, because the potential challengers are only now rising after overcoming problems they dragged for centuries

also uk should have sided with germany, but you fucked up and mingled with the juden, the birtish empire brought its own end. gj faggot

I'm grateful that our domination of the seas makes everything so fucking cheap. I'm grateful that I don't have to worry about security. Then again Europe reaps those benefits too.

Other than that it's meh. The quality of life of all first world Western countries is basically the same so which one you like the most depends largely on preference.

they hate Americans because we built the canal (the only thing of significance their country has), enabled Panamanians to win independence from Columbia, and then Carter gave Panama the canal for free to get them to stop crying.

Basically, they have learned throughout their history that if they cry hard enough, and shout "RACIST! IMPERIALIST!" loud enough, that they will be rewarded for it.

And then you realize very few countries fight strong opponents alone; without allies you can't pull it off. It took Russian bodies and American money and munitions to bring Hitler down.

>1000 years from now, Americans will daydream of how great they once were at their peak

We already know what it's like to be past our peak, it happened during the postwar years of our parents' youth and was squandered when the floodgates were opened to the third world in the late 1960s. Now the ethnic and cultural makeup that allowed the country to be great has been obliterated and the future will be decided by inferior people who just want the government to do everything for them. We've built up enough power that our fall will be gradual but make no mistake, our best days were already behind us when we were born. The America of today is nothing to be proud of. We threw away something extraordinary in order to engage in a pointless multicultural, multi-ethnic experiment.
