Do you think the UK today is anything resembling an empire?

FFS we were never referred to as an empire in the same way as the British Empire was. Get a grip.


We’re more of an empire than the British ever were. The dollar is the reserve currency of the world, you have 50 independent states who are never allowed to leave the union, and we have hundreds of military bases in every continent on earth. Not to mention, the EU would be dead as a doorknob without our money and military.

The OP’s title was taking a shot at British since they were once referred to in common parlance as the British Empire, and making light of their fall. You choose to go on a tangent about the US being more of an empire, and then claimed you never said it.

No

Those morons think the empire still exists and Trump is fighting it clandestinely

It's not a metaphor.

I never said we weren’t. My point was about SFP purposely being a douche re the OP’s thread title, when he knew exactly what the OP meant.

I admit, when I first started paying attention to Promithean Updates, I thought they were a bit looney about the whole Great Britian thing.
But, the more I watched, listened, and did some of my own searching..... they are spot on.
Anytime their content is posted here some folks ridicule and cast doubt, but never actually dispute the content. It's always general criticism.

Trump is absolutely turning the world system upside down. He's establishing the US to It's rightful place of world dominance and putting the rest of the world on notice.

He's combatting the few countries opposing globalism, so you're not wrong

Insert the “what year is it?” Gif. The British empire? Seriously WTF. People will fall for anything as long as it 1) is dark and conspiratorial or 2) if the person sounds serious

the people who are eating this up don't think Israel has immense power over the United States

SFP NEVER refutes the basic facts of anything Promethian Updates reports, it's always generalizations and ridicule.

While he does possess a high level of intelligence in some areas, he lacks integrity. He has no principles. He'll only argue whatever point of view that he thinks provides the best chance of "winning ".

He's a fricking lawyer!!! I've said this often.
We live in the same area, yet refuses to meet me for a beer and conversation.

The British Empire has not existed since WW2, effectively.

That fact refutes basically everything

I mean they still have some random territories that someone could try to use as a gotcha.

I don't think the UK owning Bermuda or the Caymans really constitutes an "empire"
