Imagine if Operation Paperclip didn't happen. Well, even if it didn't happen, the scientists and engineers that ended up in America mostly wanted to be there anyway, or at least wanted to and made sure to surrender to the allies rather than the Soviets.
Anyway, imagine all of those guys didn't end up in America. Imagine Von Braun and his crew were kidnapped by the Soviets. As well as other aero and jet engineers. Where does that go?
Would you rather be (actually) ruled over by a single, soul destroying communist global hegemon run by paranoid, murdering tyrants? I think you may be discounting, and even taking for granted, what America's power projection has done for you and everyone else.
Mate... I'm Russian. I'm MORE than aware of the horrible shit our government has done, hence beginning the list with Operation Keelhaul.
I'm not fond of the Soviet legacy AT ALL. That being said, you know the old saying, "two wrongs don't make a right?" In short, American Exceptionalism is not a justification, or even a viable counteraction, to Soviet Revolutionary Expansionism. Again, need I continue?
Between a bipolar world and a monopolar one, one in which a weak America would lose out (those engineers would not be staying in Germany under any circumstance), I chose the bipolar. It's fairly miraculous a balance of power has so far been maintained after nations built themselves nuclear weapons. Imagining most hypothetical scenarios, a nation that first builds and then deploys nuclear weapons first dominates and then destroys everything.
Well, we almost saw that exact scenario. The US was the only nation to ever use nuclear weapons (atomic weapons, but hey, details) in anger, so what stopped the US government from continuing to drop A-bombs everywhere and destroy everything, I wonder? General Patton wanted to continue the war and invade the Soviet Union... luckily, no-one listened, and he died shortly thereafter under extremely mysterious circumstances. Had the US remained isolationist and never participated in the Allied oil embargo against Japan, then the dominant powers to emerge after the war would have been the USSR and Japanese Empire, neither of which would be quite as hegemonic as the two powers of our timeline. I sincerely doubt Germany would have survived, since Hitler put the country in an impossible position after falling victim to his own hubris.
Now, today we have a monopolar world: the Soviet Union is gone, the Russian Federation isn't nearly as strong, and China is a paper dragon. The US is hegemonic, and what has it done with that power? Nothing good. Jimmy Dore may be a self-described pothead comedian, but he said it best: America is the world's terrorist. The "liberal world order" hasn't liberated anyone, it has only terrorised. George W Bush was wrong when he said "they hate us for our freedom," no Georgie, they hate America because of what the US government has done, meddling in foreign countries just to inflate the pocketbooks of some greedy nonces. BTW, the Soviets did the exact same shit, which is why a lot of people aren't fond of Russians, either.
Unfortunately, the alternative that the anointed representatives of the cathedral have offered to the liberal world order is the "great reset," which isn't a reset of anything, it's just the logical conclusion of a trend that the world has been on for quite a while now, and to my eyes, it looks like nothing more than a dishonest rebranding of Soviet Communism. Nope, been there, done that, hate it. Klaus Schwab is just Karl Marx without any hair.
