Hey there, fellow America-haters. It's been a couple months since I've posted anything on here. I felt I'd get back on it. Today, I think we need to discuss why the United States must not just cease to exist, but we have to eliminate Americanism from the world altogether. Americanism is literally the very existence of the United States and it's people. The idea that the United States and ONLY the United States should rule the world unopposed. It also the idea that Americans are superior to every other people in the world and that to question your government makes you a traitor. This existed long before Trump by the way. Many of the colonists who came here centuries ago believed that they were chosen by God to tame the New World and civilize the indigenous peoples. That led to the superiority complex that continues to exist in Americans DNA to this day. Even the most liberal and progressive people like Bernie Sanders, AOC, Pete Buttigieg, Gavin Newsom and even Zohran Mamdani still hold to the idea that the United States is exceptional and the so-called leader of the free world and many of them don't even acknowledge indigenous peoples, continuing the colonialist mentality that has perseverated in America since Columbus arrived.
And of course, that kind of thinking is dominant in American conservatism. Trump has made it clear he wants to expand American influence throughout the world and expand its territory, wanting to revive the so called "Manifest Destiny" that led to the genocidal westward expansion in the 19th century that helped shaped the United States into the empire it is today, which is why he's threatening to annex Canada, Mexico and Greenland and threatening regime change in Venezuela. He also wants to revive the Monroe Doctrine which opposed European(but not American) colonialism in the Western Hemisphere. It held that any intervention in the political affairs of the Americas by foreign powers is a potentially hostile act against the United States. The United States has been overthrown so many governments in Latin and South America you'd need more than two hands and feet to count them all. Theodore Roosevelt proposed his own variation of the Monroe Doctrine in 1904, the Roosevelt Corollary, asserting the right of the U.S. to intervene in Latin America
in cases of "flagrant and chronic wrongdoing by a Latin American Nation"
to preempt intervention by European creditors. Fast forward to the end of the Cold War in 1992, with the US as the world's renaming superpower. Paul Wolfowitz, under secretary of defense for policy under George HW Bush said that the goal of the United States in the post war Cold War world was to prevent the reemergence of a new rival and deterring potential competitors from even aspiring to a larger regional or global role. While this was largely rebuffed by the Bush admin higher-ups and ultimately scuttled under Bill Clinton, every president since, both Democrat and Republican has held to the idea of a Pax Americana, with George W. Bush being the primary continuation of that ideal. The goal is literally for the United States to rule the entire world, or, failing that, destroy it.
Anyway, this is another reason why I believe the United States must cease to exist altogether, in addition to the fact that it is, by far, the greatest threat to world peace that ever existed. While I support most of the world boycotting American travel, brands and culture(such as movies), it's not good enough. First off, the boycott needs to continue forever, even when Trump is gone and needs to be retroactive, i.e, if you own anything American, regardless when it was made, such as Star Wars memorabilia, you need to get rid of it. Don't sell it and don't even give it to charity. Throw it in the garbage. American culture is just that anyway; garbage from a garbage country full of garbage people, and it needs to be erased from the world like it never even existed. I also think every nation should embargo the United States, ban American businesses from operating in those countries, close their offices, seize their assets, ban Americans from traveling to those countries and deport all Americans living there. Of course, before they're deported, they should be subjected to the same kind of abuse the US government is doing to migrants here. It's the least they deserve. Of course, the world cannot simply ghost the United States and treat it like it never existed. That's too dangerous, especially since it has more weapons of mass destruction than any other in the world. The fate of humanity is literally at stake. Even if the world did cancel all things American, it's still there. It's like a tumor. You can't just ignore it and hope it will go away. You have to get rid of it before the cancer can spread. And Americanism is a cancer. Ultimately, the world must come together and deal a deathblow to the United States and remove it from the world completely. It needs to be occupied, balkanized and most importantly, decolonized. The United States was founded on and continues to function as a settler-colonialist, imperial project and the only way to decolonize is to destroy it. As Frantz Fanon wrote in "The Wretched of the Earth", you need to kill your colonizer. The process for indigenous nations and other peoples to achieve true self-determination and sovereignty means breaking free from US occupation and control and as long as the US continues to exist, that is not possible.
Finally, I should mention that even if the United States did cease to exist, was broken up into smaller nations and decolonized, that doesn't get rid of the core cause of Americanism: the American people. You can end the United States and divide it up and have only liberals living in liberal countries and conservatives living in conservative countries, but that perception of superiority still exists in the mass soul, regardless of where they live. There needs to be a final solution to Americanism and that means that can never be another generation of Americans born into the world. I am not calling for a Holocaust of the American people, even though many of them deserve it, the right idea would be to sterilize them so that they can no longer reproduce. Especially the MAGAtards. The people would die out within a few years, and with it, the cancer of Americanism. Once it's gone forever, the world can finally work towards permanent peace without the sword of America hanging over its head.
Thus, into an oblivion which she would have visited upon the world, exists the United States of America.

Personally, I definitely understand the hate toward America (in fact, even the American appropriation of the word "America" is worthy of contempt), but I don't think the people themselves are irredeemable. The American idea was, truly, partly built on the notion that the country and its people are superior to all others, but most peoples of the world believe they are special and/or superior in some way or the other, and that's a normal and healthy thing for a population to believe in. Arguably, the American people take it a bit too far, but that's only because America rules over the world as if it were a domestic dog, a pet; it's not the idea that engenders this geopolitical reality but the geopolitical reality that engenders the idea. If America weren't powerful enough to rule over the entire world, the American people wouldn't be so arrogant. They wouldn't be able too. This shows that the people are much like a pawn in the rulling class' game, they essentially do what they're told to do. Of course, I don't mean to excuse the country from some of its cultural characteristics which I deem very bad and that are an integral part of its heritage, some having existed since its very inception (like, for example, the fanaticism of the puritans, which is the source of an extensive negative aspect of American culture); nevertheless, the people are, wherever in the world they reside and first appeared, by their own nature a malleable entity that is more capable of positive change than any privileged section of society. It's in the nature of the ruling class to exploit and to live off exploitation - they wouldn't be the ruling class if they didn't; however, the people, being the ones exploited, possess an infinite potential to erupt through revolutionary struggle and to build a fair, worthy and egalitarian society. It's in their interest to do so. Don't lose hope in the people! If a better society is to become a reality sometime in the future, who do you suppose is going to create it, if not the people with their struggle?
