Uhh no, America is a country founded on genocide and slavery, and continues to do both to this day. Dozens of illegal wars of aggression and coups and countless human rights violations. Not to mention the effect the country has had on the biosphere and climate. The faster the US loses its global hegemonic status and hopefully balkanizes, the better off the rest of the planet will be. Trump is accelerating the downfall of America, therefore he is an accidental great man of history.

Your logic is that trump, who epitomizes everything that’s wrong with america, and is deliberately provoking and permitting the evil that has always lurked within it, and is causing widespread suffering and devastation throughout the world, at home as well as abroad, is somehow redeemable because he’s accelerating the destruction of the US, dismantling its institutions which represent its only redeeming qualities, and destabilizing the tenuous balance that has only ever existed during its best times? Not surprising at all for an .ml user. You don’t care if the world suffers as long as you get to watch america burn. Do you not realize that if trump succeeds in destroying the US government as an institution, then whatever ends up replacing it is likely to be far, far worse? Fake-leftist accelerationist will do all sorts of mental gymnastics to justify supporting maga, while simultaneously trashing every progressive who runs for office.
