One thing I find really bizarre about the argument that America is a dead letter state, because it's moral sins have condemned it, in terms of its foreign policy sins, is these people then gleefully suggest a Sino-Russo-led world order will replace America's dominant role in the world, as if these countries have clean hands.

Why isn't China appearing before this moral court, for committing genocide in Xianjiang? Or illegally claiming the entire South China Sea as it's sovereign waters, in direct violation of the rights to international waters and freedom of navigation under international law of Vietnam, Indonesia and the Philippines? Why is China's debt trap diplomacy, and it's bankrupting of states like Sri Lanka and Kazakhstan with its failing BRI not resulting in moral charges? Why is threatening to invade and conquer Taiwan (which has never been controlled by the Mainland since Mao's revolution), not a moral sin?

America is going to fail because it's committed moral sins? But China and Russia are going to succeed merely because they're alternatives? This is just not a coherent view of anything. It's really just unsophisticated anti-Americanism at the end of the day.
