I look forward to the day when the US and the rest of the west gets its just desserts. As I see it- the imperialists’ debts- actual debts, debts of blood, sweat, and tears rather than of capital and predatory interest- reparations for colonialism, slavery, genocide, warmongering, for the petrodollar/financial system which has extorted the entire globe- must be called due, even if it requires an international coalition to take what is rightfully owed them- what was taken from them (unlike the “debts” of colonized, exploited countries).
They’ll never be able to pay it all back, and of course they should never be made to suffer as their victims still suffer. But so long as their victims continue to suffer, they owe a debt- a debt whose sanctity is the very same as the sanctity of the human equality and dignity they trampled upon.
I hope they face a (justified and only just) cartel- a cartel of the oppressed, of the victims of their imperialist system, a cartel of the non-white and/or non-western peoples, of the indigenous peoples. A cartel of the international proletariat.
As somebody who lives in the US and who benefits indirectly from Imperialism I would gladly work physically or in repaying and rebuilding the global south
Feels like a pipe dream, but it would be awesome to be part of a post-empire decolonial peace exchange where US citizens are put to work (positive class conscious internationalist re-education as a bonus) in aiding economic development, or landmine/cluster munition clearance, or working to alleviate the effects of whatever crime against humanity formerly colonized groups and nations faced at the hands of the empire.

As a Canadian, agreed.
