Name a single great empire in history that got there by isolationism?

Name a single great empire in history that got there by isolationism?

Fact is most of you altright, altlite, white nationalist isolationists are just culturally self-loathing cowards who blame your political failings on easy scapegoats like jews and women.

Meanwhile you're begging for Putins cock to be rammed down your throat forgetting that the orthodox christians aren't even western.

Protip the arab spring caused the Syrian civil war and Russia would have intervened in it anyway causing a massive refugee crisis in europe irrespective of American involvement and your pathetic arguments against involvement won't change that. Your desire to submissively prostrate yourself before patriarchal men like Putin and Assad shouldn't govern American politics.

America could have been saved. You should have clapped.

Point may have some validity but name a single place like modern America. We litterlaly could live fine on our own if anyplace could.

Ancient Rome had everything but the technology (and they were almost there technologically at some points, including pre-industrial mining logistics on a scale that we've never known before and didn't know again until industrialisation).

They even had the problem of immigration after all their conquests and dominance made very large minorities who wanted citizenship. They even had civil wars during the republic era between conservatives and marxist-like reformers. Hell they even had a UBI for citizens.

Their biggest problem was over-extension, and that's a problem America has solved through culturally allied nations and technology. The biggest threat is isolationist sentiment on the left and right allowing America to show weakness.

There's a story to tell there.

ugh my country is so full of gooks and proxies. sorry everyone else.

Israel.

you are forgiven. You'll be 50% like us soon enough.

Financial infiltration is still interventionism of another kind try again

>isolationism

Well no shit, but the isolationist countries also didn't have to go through imperial decline so it's worth it

Shut up you fucking child.

No they just got BTFO at some random point when a genuine imperial power came along

inshallah london will rise again

cunt i'm a regional australian

pretty sure america did it without women or jews LOL!

China

Uh, China?

You mean the same one that was obliterated by the Mongols who were interventionists or the one that currently is completely hemmed in by the USA's network of post-cold war allies but is nevertheless aggressively putting itself into its neighbours business to promote its own interests

The United States?

Sorry what exactly is isolationist about sending millions of soldiers into Europe and across parts of Asia over the past 100 years? About couping unfriendly governments, funding foreign rebels or states in return for political alignment, and writing the constitutions and laws of other countries as per Japan and the washington consensus?

did tony abbott rape your downs brother?

You are just tangled in a Web of Freudian defense mechanisms because Australia is China.

The US became great and practiced de facto isolationism until the beginning of the 20th century. Skirmishes with Mexicans didn't do much for changing our culture.
And if you slightly stretch your measures 'nation', the small influx of western Europeans through its first hundred years still hardly affected the society

>isolationist

Don't conflate isolationism with protectionism.

I'm not, America during its isolationist era (before the Cuban revolution against Spain basically) avoided foreign issues as much as possible. After it started getting involved, it rapidly grew in power especially during the first and second world wars.

In all cases America has been fiercely protectionist even to this day on a number of issues, such as agriculture. Protectionism may or may not work, but isolationism does not.
