Shipbuilding family anon here. Grandfather and his wife/my GM both worked in shipbuilding; his dad a marine engineer.
> producing this many ships in such a short amount of time
isn't the big deal you seem to think. A lot of them were produced with the intention of sending them out to get sunk.
I'd like to write more but I'm blasted from a ton of landwork trying to get in under the wire before rain then getting soaked as it arrived.
Take a look here.
https://shipbuildinghistory.com/
Especially the "emergency shipyards," all of which are now inactive.
If there were another "emergency" requiring the absolute stupid waste and profiteering of the steel, oil, munitions, and banking industries, it could be done again. Hopefully nobody will be that stupid and yards will be turned to the projects of getting restored for 21st century needs, both in trade, strategic effort, and force projection.
Remember, the biggest weapons now are not kinetic. Just blowing shit up is a City of London thing and God willing DJT's team is shifting the entire planet away from that bullshit. And there's a whole lot more humans need to be doing. Force projection can be accomplished more surgically now.

things are always changing and if the result of the change this minute seems inferior to the one before you may call it a decline although this is too restricted and linear to do justice to what is essentially the phenomenon of competing energy and entropy. how do you measure decline or growth or stasis...all subjective, and likely intentionally so, for we only deal in demoralization and agitprop here.

Actually, ships back then would've been bigger and more cumbersome to build. The advances of metallurgy allows for better metal that's also lighter and the era of "gigantic warships" has been over for a long, long time.

The USA already has the gigantic carries and what it needs is actually smaller ships.

> b-but it was empire anyway!

so, you are literally proving me right. it's pretty obvious that USA was NOT an empire at any point of its short history.

not to mention that its influence was always contested, ever since WW2 (before WW2 USA was nobody, Europe, Japan, China and Russia had to implode in 2 world wars so that USA could become a global power, rivaled by USSR).

Jeets in the usa are nothing alike to blacks. Jeets are some of the more civil races in the US. They are primarily franchise owners of gas stations and restaurants, or white collar programming/business people. They are most similar to east asians in the role they occupy in the usa. Additionally, they are a fairly small minority here.

The race more comparable to blacks would be latinos. Latinos are very prone to forming gangs and are significantly more violent than whites statistically. They also almost exclusively target lower class jobs like construction and restaurant workers.

Jeets are not good at gang warfare for the same reason they are not good at doing pushups, their bodies are evolved to be servantile.

>>543257686
You are right but during the latter 1800s it was poised to take over the British Empire because America was, initially, 99% anglo and by 1900 its elites were anglophile. However the anglo elites were driven out of power during the 20s and 30s. That is also when a jew coined the term WASP (white anglo saxon protestant) to refer to anglo americans. The irish had been taking over the cities since the 1840s, the italians and jews since the 70s, and starting in the 1920s blacks from the south flooded northern cities.

>rice farmers
Vietnam defeated China, France and the USA in quick succession. By the time the USA fought them, the Vietnamese were already a bunch of battle-hardened soldiers with intricate tunnels and guerrilla warfare techniques.

Then, after defeating the USA, they went on to fight the Khmer Rouge and won. Their numbers were very low, they were under a shit ton of economic sanctions (the USA sided with the Khmer Rouge lmao) and there was fear that the war against Cambodia could actually trigger a bigger regional war involving China and/or the Soviet Union.

Not only did Vietnam win that war, they distributed food to the Cambodians, reinstated the previous institutions and gave them back (most of) their territory.

To call the Vietnamese "rice farmers" is a huge insult to some of the best warriors of the 20th century.
