9/11 Marked The End Of America
Varys said “power resides where men believe it resides.” That’s why Bin Laden attacked the World Trade Center, the Pentagon, and narrowly missed the Capitol. He attacked American financial, military, and political power right where it lives. And two out of three, he hit.
20 years after 9/11, the Americans finished the job. Trump hit what Bin Laden missed, inciting an attack on the Capitol. His mob killed and burnt their way inside, even smearing shit on the floor. This wasn’t an external attack anymore. The barbarians were inside the gates.
External attack, internal revolt, over-extended military? We’ve seen this one before. This is just how empires fall. You can’t see history when you’re in it, but it’s already been made. The date is set, though the words are yet to come. The American Empire fell on September 11th, 2001. As Varys didn’t say, “stick a fork in it, it’s done.”
People In History Don’t Know History
People living within empire often cannot perceive A) that they’re an empire and B) when that empire falls. We all live in the American empire (almost every country on Earth has American troops in it, or dollar-denominated loans) and that empire has already fallen down.
