Anybody who pretends that the US hasn’t operated as an empire, there is even a book named “How To Hide An Empire” on it.
That insight ( the link ) of Glubb’s was important.
Please glance at the history backing it, in that table, on that page…
I believe it is partly that the empire-rulers identity becomes sooo completely mis-matched from the actual composition of the empire, that it is an inevitable self-destruction, at that age of its evolution.

they said that it shows the emission of electromagnetic energy has the same cause, but didn’t explain what that cause is…
they said that magnetars don’t emit energy all the time, so we had to catch them when they did emit: that is false: we have to catch them when they’re emitting at us, which is a very-different frame-of-reference.
Also, if the things are neutron-stars, then how the hell can they even have any electromagnetic field?
Neutrons are neutral.
It must be a crust of non-neutron protons & electrons, or the plasma swirling in, or something, that’s producing the electromagnetic field…
No need to bother commenting on anything I say:
just random thoughs flitting through a deteriorating old brain…
Years ago I read of a couple of game theorists who were attending a conference in … perhaps Egypt … and they decided to wait until at the destination ( taxi ) before declaring that they would only pay part of the fare, & the driver would just have to accept it…
What the driver did was drive them back to their origin, at his expense, & told them to get out.
Game theory didn’t allow that.
Therefore they invented Drama Theory, which takes into account emotion/politics, because the evidence that human behaviour contradicts Game Theory had finally got noticed by them.
No idea who they were, nor have I noticed anything obvious published as Drama Theory, since.
It may have been in Scientific American, or some similar thing, it was years ago, possibly last century.
There is only 1 climate-model, that I know-of, which isn’t contradicted by the still-accelerating planetary heating, and it predicts planetary heating of over 5C if one doesn’t include the CO2 equivalent of the methane we’ve added to the atmosphere, & it predicts about 9C planetary heating if we keep the CO2 & methane the same.
It’s a powerlaw. Same as what actually rules lightning, flooding, hurricanes, tsunamis, quakes, climate punctuations, etc.
Notice that the world “consensus” is centered on 1.5C and 2C.
The accelerating release of methane from melting permafrost … probably means it isn’t possible for the amount of methane in the atmosphere to be reduced … any more.
( 1ppm methane in the atmosphere has a 20-year effect about 82.5x as intense as 1ppm CO2.
I’ve no idea how long it actually lives in the atmosphere, though, so it may be much worse )
I don’t know that Greece will be inhabitable by the end of this century.
I honestly don’t know if anything in the tropics, or even near, will remain inhabitable.
It might be that only Siberia will remain inhabitable, and Antarctica.
I don’t think it’ll get that bad, but … dear God is humankind ignoring reality as devoutly as it can.
Sorry, but air-quality damage from gas cooking & air-quality damage from burning cooking-oil have nothing to do with each-other.
Both create harmful air.
Cooking with electric stove ( induction seems to be the cheapest, next to microwave, in terms of energy ) removes the air-quality harm done by gas.
Burning cooking-oil harms air-quality no matter what heating-technology was used to produce the mistake.
