Imo, the biggest sign of an empire dying is that so many people seem to want it to die. Don't get me wrong, I've been relatively non-interventionist since I can remember, but Trump's "Make America Great Again" rhetoric caught on for a reason: America has become a culture that has given up, a culture that just wants it all to be over. No longer does anyone have a desire for us to be great, for us to be prosperous, for us to be strong.
In this fight, the millennials are really failing in their hero role and acting a lot more like their adaptive next juniors. The hero generation is supposed to begin tilting the scale back from the over-femininity of the hyper-emotional 2T and consumptive/solipsistic 3T and toward a more masculine sense of vigor, drive, organization and courage. On some level, we have realized this, and I'm hoping for a kind of better-late-than never swing toward trying to do something about this, but I am not optimistic.
