It's not like the US really changed much. Random regime changes and gunboat diplomacy were always their thing.

This reads like SPAM.
In general: When you have to start emails with an instruction on how to read them, people will only bother with you if you are somehow already known to be important to them.

Yeah, not everyone can afford to just buy a Thai girl to take care of that.

I watched the Mad Max movies. This looks absolutely not like anything in them.

It takes a long time to fully deplete the male population of a country like Ukraine. They are Slavs and fight till the end (literally to the last Ukrainian). The US just needs to keep Starlink available and keep feeding targeting info. Ukraine does the rest. Sure, they will eventually run out of men. But they will then send the women too and keep the fight going for another few years.
Ukraine is the best-possible proxy ever. That war will keep going with or without further western funding.

It's always the time and always has been.
But the actual problem to be solved is not the system, but the minority of people who always rise to the top in any system and ruin it for everyone else. There are always positions of power and people happy to exploit them. That is something, no system so far was able to solve.

Russia is occupied with Ukraine for the next ten years.

Nice to see that at least in the hardware market, competition still works. It is normal for companies who don't offer competitive value for the money to just fail. This is how market economies are meant to work.

The answer to "copyright" overreach is just piracy. I can play pirated games, watch pirated movies, listen to pirated music... Of course, I will be able to just use a pirated model locally. Or I can just use a Chinese or Russian one - they can speak English just fine.
