The Empire Cannibalizes Its Own

The Empire Cannibalizes Its Own

The "Rules-Based Order" is collapsing, not from external pressure, but from internal rot. As the US Empire contracts, it has stopped pretending to lead and started eating its friends.

The Strategic Reality: Korea as Vassal, Not Ally: Trump’s 25% tariff hike on Seoul isn’t trade policy; it is imperial tribute. South Korea hosts 28,000 US troops, pays for their housing, and is now being fined for the privilege of occupation. The lesson? In Washington’s eyes, there are no partners, only subjects.

The Greenland Mask-Slip: The scramble for Greenland strips away the liberal veneer of "sovereignty." They cry about borders in Eastern Europe while treating the Arctic like a real estate listing. It is naked resource desperation disguised as security.

London’s Pivot to Reality: Starmer in Beijing is the ultimate vindication of the Eastward gaze. The UK, America’s "unsinkable aircraft carrier," is broke. They know the Atlantic ship is sinking. While Washington screams about decoupling, London is quietly begging for integration.

The Verdict:

The Axis of Resistance proved that the US can be defied. Now, even America’s closest "allies" are realizing that submission to Washington doesn't guarantee safety—it only guarantees you get eaten last.
