You remain attached to the very system destroying you. The America you love is dead. Its never coming back. And so is the West in general. Its dead. What has taken its place is systemically and inherently biased against you.
You will not be able to deal with your mutineers. They will distract you with foreign adventures, playing on old instincts while they pick your pockets and destroy you. You want to go to war to defend the interests and expand the power of your real enemies.
The existence of one enemy in no way makes other enemies not exist or stop being your enemies. If you think otherwise, you're an idiot, one useful to one of these other enemies, or just in general.
Insane.
So the system itself has to go. And something new built to replace it, inspired by the best of the old but rooted in modernity. And to do that, the institutions have to be demolished.
Sink the boat bud. Sink it. Sink it all with the mutineers in it. You are going to lose anyway. But if you sink the boat, you can survive and build something new.
Did you read what did i write about what will happen after you sink the boat?
The third parties will not just simply let you survive and build something new. They would be fucking retarded to do so.
It doesnt matter what China does in Taiwan. it doesnt matter what Iran does in syria. It doesnt matter what Russia does in Ukraine. What matters is whats going on in your own back yard. The greatest enemy isnt the 'Chicoms'.
Sorry, but i completely fail to appreciate the intellectual value of "stick your head in the sand" strategy.
Its the plutocrats and and managerial classes. It is they who destroyed you. It is they who empowered your foreign rivals, pillaged your economy and debased your society.
Wow, go away to the commies then, seems like you have the right story to be accepted by them.
Until that system is dealt with, you will be unable to deal with your foreign rivals.
If your defeatist vision regarding chances of retaking the control of the ship is correct, then your solution to it is incorrect. Global thermonuclear warfare is a better alternative, as it implies sinking not only your ship, but all the other ships, certainly the hostile ones, while, as a bonus, said hostile ships will help you sink the mutineers with their ship's weapons. And suddenly your chances of being able to rebuild with no intervention from other ships rise...
But hey, that doesn't fit the pro-foreign power narrative you are trying to push, so you sure will apply your favored "stick head in sand" strategy instead.
