  • America was built on a very fruitful land, the new comers had a lot of room to expand.

    There weren’t any existing powers to stifle growth so it was “free” to grow as much as possible (this is what they mean by freedom).

    The gold rush happened in California, then a lot (and I mean A LOT for its time) of oil production.

    Then Europe had a couple of civil wars (I’m calling it that cause they fought themselves mostly) which gave US even more of an advantage.

    The American experiment has had A LOT privileges because it was the new world. Those are ending but Americans believe they can keep the party going forever.

    Europe had a similar boost during colonial times and that ended too, so chances are it will happen to US too.

    Only two questions remain:

    • Will it be as bloody as possible like WWII or more peaceful.
    • Will Americans get their shit together after like Europe and form a strong union built on democracy.

  • Okay but in post A, people from B won’t chime in, and conversely for things posted to B.

    I guess instance C can make posts where both people from A and B can chime in. So would people in instance A be able to talk to people in instance B in the instance C’s comment section? Cause A people don’t want to hear from B people.

    So we would still see less active posts as interactions would go down.
