Without question, and it’s happening in the dumbest ways possible. Literally. We’ve historically held our superpower status by carefully maintaining an intellectual capital advantage over the rest of the world. Most of the people with the knowledge and skills to build the latest and greatest technologies were American. Now, we’re divesting from education and making it harder for international students to come here. We’re losing our edge quite rapidly

Sadly i think that’s a little optimistic 😔 the US will probably limp along committing crimes against humanity for another century or so
