One Day They Will Wake Up

This cartoon was drawn in 1925 by American artist Robert "Bob" Minor, titled "One Day They'll Wake Up”
The cartoon illustrates a powerful shift in global dynamics: figures symbolizing China, India, and Africa rise to their feet, staring down at smaller, trembling characters labeled “U.S. Imperialism,” “British Imperialism,” and “French Imperialism.”
Created during an era dominated by Western imperial powers, the artwork envisioned a future where nations like China and India, along with the African continent, would awaken and challenge Western dominance — foreshadowing a dramatic change in the balance of world power.

Back in 1925, China and India and Africa were basically the same level. Things have change a lot since then.

Africa needs a renaissance to even be considered a threat, with someone to unify. India maybe 2 more generations, MAYBE.

Trump just bossed Rwanda and Congo into a peace deal after decades of fighting. Nope, that cartoon is wishful thinking by wumaos. US imperialism still stands high with Trump.

If the west lost it access to Africa resources and have to pay market price for it. Only a few country can maintain their gdp like now. All others will collapse

Doesn’t matter who drew it, but more like who is low-IQ enough to believe it today and think USA is faltering.
If Biden or Kamala were in charge, then probably USA would have sunken further, but thank God we have Trump.

err what year youre living in? this was true 20yrs ago, its no longer the case today. US still relies on old school carrier fleets and airpower which only useful against non peer countries and 90s era warfare, while the Russians, Iranians, Chinese already fielding extremely advanced high tech military weaponry/technologies that western bloc can only dream
not to mention most of western bloc militaries minus US cant even be considered an army even, they dont have the manufacturing/industrial base to even feed a military nor have the manpower to mount any form of offensive. so wheres the domination?
already shown in Ukraine Russia SMO where they tried to feed Ukraine with all their supposedly higher tech stuff but they cant sustain them beyond first year of the conflict. even US GAO military audit found out that only a mere 30% of their F35 fleet are full mission capable, the rest are barely functional kek
