This is an incredible read, thank you. It got me wondering - is VDA a natural process humans engage in? Is this what led us to create more complex societies in the first place?

Sarah Longwell: We are committing superpower suicide in real time. Trump is making China Great Again. Poll: People in *every single one* of the top US-allied countries now believe it’s better to depend on China than on the US.
