because the western roman empire died and the east became it's own new entity, if anything the EU-USA split seems more likely but even then one or both could collapse for multiple reasons, don't think the USA will remain friendly if the EU added Russia for example, it's unlikely but if it did suddenly the US global power projection would have a massive problem and they know it.

well, yes and no, the USA has gone through many stages, at it's birth and still to a large degree it has been mostly British in culture, laws and language but after it's revolution and expansion into the rest of north america it became distinctly pan-european in it's cultural ''melting pot'' with specific rules to keep other people's out and having debates about their african american slave populations, you can read up on abraham lincoln's views on that for more context. after ww2 and during the cold war the USA became much more of a global empire and opened up it's borders for most of the world, the results have been.... well mixed bag, on some ends it's been great for the high tech sector of the nation, more labor for it's growing economy and manpower for military engagements but on the other hand there is a clear polorization going on in the USA and it looks weaker and more divided than ever while the Chinese with their homogenic population seems far more able to grow, change and adapt new technologies and expand than the USA has been. if anything the USA would do well to become more of a north american focused nation and less on a global scale to try and assimulate it's people to a more united people because right now the path the USA is on seems to me like Balkanization and civil war more than anything.

@hadi8699 Russians seem more European than Turkey, the relationship of Turkey has been more hostile towards Europe for most of it's history where as Russia has been more equal in terms of wanting the same things, plus Turkey is majority muslim and that clashes with christianity. like I said im not sure, it's 50/50% on where they stand but from my perspective they don't realy want to be part of Europe and most of Europe don't consider them part of it too is my take.

I wished we had a united Europe with Russia in it as well, Turkey not so sure, feel like they are on the edge of what is considered Europe.

@thesimpleanswer2264 lets agree to disagree but as a European country I hope not to become more like the USA with the exception of gun rights and free speech, everything else I consider the USA a harmfull entity for Europe and most of the world, esspecialy their politics right now.

@sirsurnamethefirstofhisnam7986 is that from this year or the last 20 years? also the UK is a pretty small country compared to Canada or Australia so they could deal with more migrants if they have them, the UK on the other hand is already very full and most of it's people can't get ahead as a result, also the way the UK deals with these waves of migration seems very disfunctional though you could argue that is the case with all these countries right now.

@lif3andthings763 the US constitution does not allow for peacefull breakaway states, there is no peacefull brexit within the US frame work possible, therefor there can only ever be a violent means of independence of states. the balans is between states desire for independence and their own ability to fight against the federal government, if the USA gets involved in major wars abroad those tensions might come to a boiling point or multiple states will desire to leave the union for their own reasons and thus would be forced to form an alliance or confederacy to engage within a war for independence, the first US civil war happened exactly like this with only a handfull of states leaving the union via force and others joining in as it escalated. the less faith americans have in the current government (not the constitution perse) the more likely civil war could happen, this could further evolve if the USA no longer has it's allies to draw support from either because of lack of support or preoccupied with other conflicts.

@bucolicberyllium2717 I don't think anyone is saying zero immigration is a good thing but we clearly don't need more low skilled labor and we would benefit the most from automation which means getting more high skilled labor, engineers, scientists, programers, not people from third world countries, unless they fit into that specific order or are so young that they could be educated to fill those rolls they are a net drain on all services, housing, medical costs and form potential 5th collums on society. what's even more ironic is these same governments have promoted smaller families for decades now and suddenly they need millions more people and they don't like it when other parties want to promote their own population growth so im not realy buying this argument and it's always forced upon us and told it's inevitable because reasons, nothing is inevitable within politics.

@lif3andthings763 I think it's funny how the great replacement denialists still going strong within some echochambers, it's not exactly a secret.

@lif3andthings763 what's also interesting is from my perspective you are the one being racist by claiming European nations should not act in their own collective self interest while non-European populations do. Another point that's interesting is the argument that doing so would lead to authoritarian governments which is ironic because European nations were more free and had more rights esspecialy around freedom of speech before this ideology came around and it always demands more authoritarian policies in order for it to be maintained, it has to supress and demonize populism and mildly rightwing views as "far right" while ironically pushing moderate views more towards real far right ideologies because of it, alienation leads to radicalism if you want to avoid that you have to listen to people. Also if the EU for example ever wishes to become a federation it has to act in the interest of European nations, if it can't you get things like Brexit, there realy is no benefit to this ideology of multicultralism and "diversity" it lowers standards, it divides people, makes people more radical and society less advanced, if it was a meritocratic ideology that would be one thing but it's not and if it was that would still be unfair to European nations that exist due to having fought for their right to exist as nations, you could push to see it change but if it's replaced with something worse, what's the point? Then it's just suicidal.

why not Mosley's Europe a nation idea?

always, the UK is heading towards disaster and frankly the sooner it gets there the less damage it might do.

@lif3andthings763 because it's true and everyone can see it? I mean you can censor everyone and try and suppress the truth but that's not going to stop reality. looking at Europe the populists seem to be the most sane and down to earth compared to the loonies in charge.

@lif3andthings763 the UK and most western countries are actually doing that, promoting the idea that native culture just deserves to be wiped out while also extracting resources from them to fund it, not to mention that most western nations are aging, meaning that within 20-50 years the majority native population is going to collapse and what's left will be a minority of native people and a new majority of "diverse" people. Now you don't need to care about that, even though it's against your own self interest, but say it what it is, it's colonialism and at worst ethnic cleansing, if it's wrong when Europeans do it (on a much smaller scale btw) then how is it suddenly justified when it's us? If anything your fueling far right and extremist thinking because you prove to society that democracy does not work to defend ones own nation, which is exactly the argument that was made by historical fascism, if you want to repeat history, oke but I think that's very stupid and easy to avoid.

@ShamanMcLamie I disagree, that's the narrative americans want, it is in their national interest to keep Russia and Europe divided, Russia long term has more to offer Europe than the USA, which is why the USA needs to keep the rivalry alive, further Russia believes it can still remain a super power on it's own but is failing to do so, more so because of economics than it's impressive military, a EU-Russian alliance or Russia becoming part of the EU is a nightmare for both the USA and China, though more so for the USA since it would then be unable to justify it's NATO alliance and military bases. It is true that the USA is more like western Europe in terms of culture and values but that does not matter in geo-politics. The USA will attempt to block any chance for Russia to westernize and become closer to Europe and will fund seperatist group within Russia to break it apart if it does. I am well aware of how the USA threatens, uses sanctions, trade wars, invasions or covert means to get what they want, which is exactly why it enjoys the status quo and keeping nations divided within NATO frame work, as long as they are apart, disunited and have no greater goals than their national interests, the USA will remain the world's sole super power, the threat of China however has shown that era is slowly coming to an end and as Europe becomes presured by both the USA, China, Russia and the problems in the middle-east and Africa, they will have no choice but to create a European federation and seek complete independence from the USA first, dealing with Russia second and maintaining it's new position between China and the USA third. It's that or cease to exist and be an even more directly vazal playground for Russia, China and the USA, the people know it, the leaders know it, the USA elites know it, China knows it and Russia knows it, we are moving towards a multipolar world, no more sole superpowers anymore.

@swampdonkey1567 I know Texas and Vermont have some constitutional loophole to have the right to leave the union, most states don't and even those that do have that right would be suicidal if they think the federal government is just going to stand for it, in the case of texas they joined the confederates but after the civil they were kept in the union. with say the EU which is like a semi federal/confederate system, member states have the right to leave the union, not in the USA where a state first has to have that right (few states have it) and then have to be allowed to leave by I believe a majority of the other states, something quite like this happened in the UK during the troubles, when irish nationalists wanted a path to reunification with northern ireland, after a lot of terrorism and a plot to kill the PM of the UK the UK signed the Bellfast agreement meaning they would allow a refurendum on irish unification, likewise if the USA as a whole is corrupt with it's federal government elites, crony actions and culture becomes something hostile to it's state members then seeking independence becomes much more likely and since there is no real path for most states to do so it only really leaves violence as a means of progressing it further. the USA has changed a lot since it's creation and not always for the better, looking at the trends I can't help but feel that people are losing faith in it, it could change of course but I don't think that's likely unless something really gets them fired up.

@lif3andthings763 the math does work out and the ironic thing is that your argument's side is the emotional one, accusing people who point out reality as being somehow immoral or racist and desperate in need of censorship and exclusion of those who point out what's going on, if your side is so correct why do you need censorship? Why are you so afraid? How come you can't realy convince people of your arguments? I've heard these counter arguments for over 15 years now and they have never convinced me or anyone, if anything they made me more sure of the facts.

I think this is a realy stupid and ineffective plan that will never become a reality for multiple reasons. for starters these places are far too distant from eachother and don't trade as much as they used to, they are seperate with their own issues, governments, people's and conflicts, the reason why the EU is focused on it's region is because that's what matters to their position, their self interest and having that in order is actually their best way to grow and move towards a more impactfull union that can compete with the USA and China. the UK can't do that and seems more likely to fall apart right now than ever before, it's government is disfunctional and frankly insane with their policies while their populations suffer and can't even get the most basic self respect as a nation, it's entirely living on it's history, it's relationship with the US and now declining power around the globe, in many ways it's a joke. as for the other nations they are focused on other things, Canada has it's own internal problems and has to work with the USA, New Zealand and Australia are focused on China and in many ways are becoming like puppet states for Chinese interest. this whole concept has no foundation to stand on, at best it could become a military alliance but that roll is already being filled by NATO so unless the USA ceases to exist this will never become a reality, it's more likely that the UK will fall apart and it's members try and rejoin the EU.

@thesimpleanswer2264 that's fair enough, agreed.
