Note the similarities between the current geopolitical landscape and the waning days of the Roman Empire.

There were eight major reasons for the demise of Rome:
>Invasions by Barbarians
>Economic troubles and over-reliance on slave labor
>The rise of the Eastern Empire
>Over-expansion and military overspending
>Government corruption and political instability
>The arrival of the Huns and the migration of Barbarian tribes
>Moral decadence and loss of traditional values
>Weakening of the Roman legions

How many of these are happening today? Are we headed for doom?

You forgot to mention letting women to have rights and letting them infiltrate the political establishment.

>>127585419
Well yes, because we are the next Rome.

>>127585419
No you faggot the barbarians could at least try to fight with their weapons back in that day.

In today's world a true barbarian uprising would result in carpet nuking.

Honestly, just drones are enough to stop it, given the order to suspend rules of engagement.

We are well over a century away from any form of real collapse, say when America tips below 50% white or the military high command is no longer 90%+ white.

The cycle may be ongoing, but we aren't that far into it yet.

>ignoring the effect of Christianity which replaced the strong traditional, pagan, Roman values that won and held the Empire in the first place

What did OP mean by this? Is he a faggot?

>>127585419
Yes, there are a lot of similarities and a lot of differences. Trump falls clearly in the "late emporor" category.

>Invasions by Barbarians
refugees

financial instability, piling debt, income inequality

>The rise of the Eastern Empire
china

>Over-expansion and military overspending
america and NATO

>Government corruption and political instability

of course we are. All civilizations eventually fall. Western civilization will die like everything else.

theres no enemy at the gates, the american government made its people and its allies people its enemy number 1.
i wonder if the romans tried mass surveillance of its friends and allies and made enemies of them all.

the roman empire collapsed from within a empire can fight off an external enemy or even loss and comeback but a empire that is collapsed from within targeting its own people and so called allies as enemies is destined to end up flushed down the toilet of histroy.
and rightfully so.

No trump fits in to the early period well as Gaius Gracchus. Look him up they are scary alike.

The Empire was inherently unstable long before the barbarian invasions: read about the Crisis of the Third Century. It's a miracle that it lasted as long as it did.
