  • You are writing fanfiction here, I don’t think any serious leftist wants things to go sour for the US. As a leftist from outside the USA i often warn that the moment America crumbles we will all be struck by the sharpnell. If you take up some actual leftist literature, say some Noam Chomsky, some Baudrillard, some Felix Guattari, the overall feeling is " the contradictions of capitalism will mount and things will get considerably worse. " a lot of them suggest ideas on how to prevent these maladies, I’d recommend Guattari’s “Cartographies of desire” but sadly the USA seems like is on it’s full speed on course to ruin: facism in it’s government going progressively shameless, the over finatialization of it’s economy, the fact that political division and misinformation has been a strategy to undermine democracy used by both political parties, Oligarchy being so eager to turn “feudal” and several crisis of education. Things will get bad not because leftists wish it so, but because it will seem miraculous if they get better.

    Either way, Americans have never cared whst leftists have to say. Their mere words will not change your reality.
