We're so f*cked

I mean, he's the President-elect. Short of somehow removing him from office, he's going to have those powers Ex.

Won't matter, the faster the world doesn't have to rely on the US the better.

I find your opinion to be remarkably short-sighted. It also doesn't make a whole lot of sense. A multi-polar world is even less equipped to handle climate change than our current system. Not sure if you noticed, but it is Westerners leading that charge, specifically leftist Westerners with high levels of education. Half the population doesn't even think climate change is real. How on earth do you think that empowering these people to have a say over international politics for the next twenty or thirty years is going to get climate change addressed?

It seems to be that you have taken the cliche "it has to get worse before it gets better" to fanatical new heights. This isn't going to result in some sort of leftist revolution, or a new national consensus. This will simply put that movement behind for however long the right-wing nationalists are allowed to hold power.

I have been an outspoken critic of the international order, but to throw it away with no planning is worse than maintaining it. We are on a precipice, and big movements are extremely dangerous and damaging. What is needed is a transition, that is planned, not burning the whole thing down and hoping we can pick up the pieces in time.
