  1. Nobody should be shocked by this. A civilisation never lasts forever. American decline was always going to happen, we just happen to be the ones that are watching the beginning of the fall.

  2. @ India (and China) peaked, then collapsed. They're both rising again with China centuries ahead. The idea that Indian civilisation still exists is a fallacy. Just cause humanity still exists does not mean it's thriving. If India was thriving people would not be leaving it. Like the US today, India declined too. All civilisations do.

  3. @ All do. Indian civilisation is NOTHING like what it once was like. In the past, India's cultural soft power was so great influencing the rest of Asia and giving rise to extraordinary developments in culture like philosophy and various innovations. During the Islamic Mughal era, India thrived and Bengal Subah was one of the most developed regions in the world. Is modern India like that? No. That's because it declined. All civilisations decline.

  4.  @florianlion8215  Declining fertility is a huge issue for many regions of the world, especially in the West, Latin America and Asia. However there are other factors that influence decline. China has below replacement level fertility but the quality of life continues to increase and there is backwards migration that is slowly beginning to take hold with overseas educated Chinese returning to China. China is rising again after having experience decline after WW2. India has a long way to go but it too is on an upward trajectory, albeit a slow one. These are countries that have room for growth. Industrialised nations like those in Western Europe, the US and Japan don't have as much room for growth and if they don't keep up, they decline. They describe AI as the new frontier for human development, the new revolution, it's worth noting that China is succeeding at a great rate in the AI revolution (placing at #2) but as are many Western nations with the US at #1. India too is among the top 10 according to the Global AI Index. It's up for nations to keep up with human development to make sure that they don't decline. We talk about American decline but there are countries that are even in worse shape like the UK and Japan.

  5.  @njones420  No, the UK simply lost the ability to maintain control over much of their empire after WW2. In Asia, Japan's conquest and attempted conquest of various European colonies in Southeast Asia and South Asia proved that the British wouldn't be able to maintain control forever.

  7. @ So many people fail to understand what civilisation collapse means and so they keep talking about humanity surviving, this is now what this is about. It's about a civilisation being at the top and then declining, humanity surviving does not mean a civilisation has not collapsed. To continue talking about innovations and what not does not make sense because the average American isn't benefitting from any of that. Th rich are thriving but the average middle Americans aren't. US life expectancy continues to decrease and it's the middle class and lower class that will suffer.

  8. @ The average American's quality of life is not getting any better, it's decreasing. Talking about stats is like how Indians talk about India's GDP growth and other achievements, for the average Indian, things haven't changed. That's what's happening in the US, quality of life is decreasing. The rich will thrive though.

  9. They aren't going to fall first. They're still rising and still have room to rise because they're still developing. The US on the other hand is a high income fully developed nation. It is much harder for a fully developed nation to continue to grow at the rates that exist in developing nations.

  10. @ No it would not. Richest nation in the world??? Is this what Modi Godi has been conning people into believing. Must be a North Indian, only they say stuff like this

  11.  @Thecoolestnumberone  A decline is a a type of fall. When something peaks and declines that's a type of fall.

  12. @ Quality of life in the US is decreasing, its life expectancy has dropped. The country was unable to manage the COVID-19 pandemic during the first wave while much of Asia (including developing Asian nations) were able to. The nation is severely divided and there is anti-government sentiment across the country, n matter who is in power, anti-corporate sentiment is rising and the entire Global South is re-aligning in a way that hasn't been seen since the end of WW2. It's very clearly declining.

  15.  @snakeeater0224  I've been to China too but being there doesn't mean you know what's actually going on. You have to read. Saying China is no friend is the most American thing to say. China and India just began a process of thawing their relations which is also going to open the doors to more FDI. If you understand economics, you will understand that for a fully developed nation, it is harder to grow further unlike a developing nation which is poorer and has greater boundaries to grow. The idea that the US is going to have an endless boundary to grow is crazy because that is not possible.

  20.  @Ardiantothehulk  There is something there for immigrants in the US and their descendants which why people still move there. However, it can't be denied that the US is plagued with many issues and those issues will continue to worsen. It's shocking to me how American people think it's normal to have homeless people sleeping on trains and at train stations in the US.

  21.  @Ardiantothehulk  Not everything is about stats. Like I said, I'm shocked that you have homeless people living on the trains and in the train stations. My country has homeless people too but you don't see them living inside train carriages like you do in NYC or entire tent cities in places like SF or an entire area known as Skid Row.

  25.  @MMX-fh5tn  Indian civilisation has collapsed. Just because Indians still exist doesn't mean it's thriving, cause it's not. India thrived from the ancient days to the days of the Mughals. It's nothing like what it used to be.

  28.  @florianlion8215  Societal collapse is inevitable. It happens to every civilisation for different reasons. The industrialised world of our time was never going to remain industrialised forever. As humans develop, new things will develop. Slow growth, lack of adoption of new technology, changes to demography and so on will lead to stagnation and eventual decline. So yes, it's not just the US it's also various parts of Europe and Japan. What has happened to Japan since the 1990s is on another level. Japan's economic decline is what could happen to other industrialised nations.

  30.  @queefmicester1189  Survive does not mean thrive. All civilisations rise and fall. Muslim is a religious group made up of diverse groups. Afghans, Syrians, Sudanese, Somalis etc. are not thriving. China declined and is once again rising. India declined and is once again rising.

  33.  @AngkatanNamwaran  China declined. All civilisations decline. Just because humanity remains doesn't mean China never declined. China went through the Century of Humiliation, during that period it was at its lowest. Once again, it is rising again. All civilisations rise and fall.

  35.  @calidawg111  No it's not. It's declining and China is filling the void. If you live outside of the US, you will know how different things are. I see more people who are pro-China than pro-US.

  42.  @kansashoneybadger7899  The world is completely US-oriented and it's clear that the rest of the world (especially the Global South) is getting tired of it. China now publishes more scientific papers than the US or any other nation in the world. It now accounts for 23% of the world's research output. Patenting in the US is not the defining factor of a nation's success. US life expectancy has been declining since it peaked in 2014 and its decline was exacerbated with COVID-19. It has yet to rebound. When a nation's quality of life continues to decrease, it's clear a nation is slowly falling.

  43.  @Thecoolestnumberone  What you spoke about was an exception. Life expectancy is the predicted life span that the average baby is expected to live in a certain area like a country. Bringing up examples of people who live to 100 is not the norm and it's not he standard. The fact is that the average American is expected to live until 76. Key word, "average".

  45.  @kansashoneybadger7899  So China is actually rising one again. There is widespread backlash to immigrants in the US nowadays, especially towards Indians who enter on a H-1b visa. Silicon Valley and the US innovator list of 2023 featured many East Asian and Indian names but I don't think that will be the case forever. AI adoption is slower in the US than it is in Asia. Singapore tops the list and support for AI is greater in Asia than the US. There is actually fear and backlash towards AI in the US unlike in Asia where local news broadcasts now use AI news anchors. So many people fail to understand what civilisation collapse means and so they keep talking about humanity surviving, this is now what this is about. It's about a civilisation being at the top and then declining, humanity surviving does not mean a civilisation has not collapsed.

  55. The fact that only 40% of Australians now view the US favourably is a huge blow to US soft power in the country and the wider Asia-Pacific region. For the longest time, the Americans have used the Australians as cannon fodder to represent American interests in Asia but the tides are changing. In the end, Australia's closest geographical neighbours are Papua New Guinea, East Timor and Indonesia - Asia-Pacific nations. The US is far away.
