Multipolarity is how you stop an empire without a world war.

Your entire reply rests on the oldest trick in Western strategic thinking:
Pretend the U.S. is just another imperfect actor, rather than the only actor whose violence becomes global architecture.
You list "nuclear proliferation, climate collapse, failed states" as threats.
Who accelerated all three?
The United States.
Who tore up nuclear agreements? The U.S.
Who withdrew from climate treaties? The U.S.
Who manufactured failed states across Iraq, Libya, Afghanistan, Syria, Haiti? The U.S.
China didn’t do that.
Russia didn’t do that.
No one else can do that.
Scale is the entire point.
A match and a wildfire are both "fire."
Only one burns continents.
You say "every major power acts with impunity."
No. Every major power acts within limits.
Except one.
China cannot bomb a country on Tuesday and get invited to rebuild it on Thursday.
Russia cannot sanction half the planet from a keyboard in Washington.
Only one nation’s impunity is backed by:
The reserve currency.
The SWIFT network.
800 military bases.
Control of global narratives.
Control of international institutions.
Veto power in every arena that matters.
You are pretending that all "impunity" is equal.
It is not.
American impunity defines the global order.
Other nations operate inside it.
And your examples don’t land the way you think:
Invoking Xinjiang as if it is comparable to Iraq or Libya is another sleight of hand.
Managing separatism inside your borders is not the same category as destroying entire countries across the planet.
And calling the South China Sea "expansion" only works if you believe U.S. warships 10,000 km from home are normal, but China securing its own coastline is aggression.
The U.S. polices the Caribbean with absolute entitlement.
China secures waters in its own region and Washington calls it empire.
That contradiction explains everything about American projection.
You bring up Ukraine without mentioning NATO expansion, the 2014 coup, broken security guarantees, or eight years of war in the Donbas.
Context does not excuse everything, but it demolishes your attempt at symmetry.
Russia acts within its region.
The U.S. acts everywhere.
That alone destroys your comparison.
And that is the hierarchy of threats you keep flattening to protect the idea of American indispensability.
Russia entered Syria at the formal invitation of the internationally recognized government.
The U.S. entered illegally, stole Syrian oil, armed terrorist groups, and carved up Syrian territory without consent.
If you cannot see the difference, you cannot talk about law.
"Who will stop the U.S.?"
You assume stopping equals war.
That is an American assumption, not reality.
China and Russia are stopping the U.S. right now, without firing a shot, by:
Ending dollar dependence.
Creating parallel institutions (BRICS, SCO, EAEU).
Building Eurasian energy grids.
Creating alternative payment systems.
Eroding U.S. narrative monopoly.
Refusing to obey Washington’s veto over their development.
Offering security and infrastructure the U.S. cannot match.
This is how empires end now:
Not with a battlefield, but with irrelevance.
You say my rhetoric is "anger without strategy."
No. It is clarity without illusion.
The strategy is already unfolding:
Multipolarity is how you stop an empire without a world war.
By reducing its leverage.
By ending its monopoly.
By giving nations choices that are not Washington.
By building structures the U.S. cannot infiltrate or control.
China understood this before anyone.
Russia understood it after 2014.
The Global South is understanding it now.
The U.S. is not being confronted by "anger."
It is being confronted by alternatives.
Your biggest mistake is psychological, not analytical.
You cannot imagine a world where the U.S. is no longer the axis around which humanity must justify its existence.
You ask, "What replaces it?"
The answer terrifies you:
Plurality.
Not one empire, many powers.
Not one currency, several.
Not one worldview, a mosaic.
China and Russia are not trying to "dominate" that order.
They are trying to end the era where domination is even possible.
That is what stopping the U.S. actually means.
So here is the corrected line:
A country that cannot be restrained must be counterbalanced.
A country that cannot be trusted must be bypassed.
A country that cannot stop itself must be made irrelevant.
And that is exactly what China, Russia, and the Global South are doing.
No bombs.
No invasions.
No catastrophes.
Just the slow, unstoppable erosion of American centrality.
That is how you stop impunity.
Not with war.
But with a world that no longer needs its permission.
