Everyone knows the US believes in hegemony and a unipolar world and when the US gained unipolar hegemony in the world, the process of exploiting and oppressing the whole world was set in motion.

The US has quietly completed its deindustrialization process in just two or three decades. The industry is hard work. The US, with its unipolar hegemony, can gain wealth by harvesting, exploiting and oppressing other countries, therefore, have naturally abandoned the industry.

The US ruling class and its remotely farmed followers around the world have devised a pattern of ideological export, global deployment of the US military, periodic release of dollars and recycling of dollars, in order to exploit and oppress the world forever.

However, driven by the laws of history, the China-Russia-Iraq anti-hegemonic alliance was formed to balance against the unipolarity.

Against this anti-hegemonic alliance, the US actually has no effective countermeasures. The US will never fight its battle directly with the nuclear-armed nation and it won’t fight its battles from its own land. Its strategy is nothing more than a proxy war to consume China, Russia and Iraq. The US is trying to wear China, Russia and Iraq to the point of exhaustion through proxy wars and then act on its own to clean up the mess and reap all the fruits of victory. This is how the US won the war in the Second World War.

However, China, a civilization of 5,000 years, has made it clear that it will not fight a proxy war with the US. When China is forced to fight, it will fight directly with the US, which is the so-called “the beginning of the war is the end of the war.” Under such a big pattern and trend, I don’t think the US has any chance of winning.

The US draconian hegemony has outlived its lie and America is on the brink of civil unrest. As the world watched, Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump’s life hung in the balance and the Democratic candidate, Joe Biden, has stepped down, not knowing who can come to the rescue. As the Democrats have orchestrated a coup, there seems to be nothing democratic about the democrat party.

It is time for Nepal’s political elite to think about what to do when the US surrenders its unipolar hegemony. The world has changed, we can see an emerging multipolar and those who have so far clung to the gift of MCC should wake up to the fact that MCC is a negative asset, not a treasure.
