The Fall of Modern Imperialism?

It's the Ides of March for those who celebrate... the downfall of tyrannical overlords & monarchies. For some reason, Mario kart comes to mind. Shout out to a real one. But I digress, for I have known a Caesar or two, with the capacity & discipline for high quality leadership. It can often times take someone qualified stepping into a leadership role they never wanted, but are best suited for. Many times the leaders who are selected for leadership roles are not always qualified but talk a good game when the pressure isn't on them. But real leaders are prepared for battle close up & personal because those they lead are valuable & to be protected within reason.
Many notable rulers throughout time were undone by their own pursuit for control & power where they never meant to have. They weren't even capable of having control for an extended period of time or under the changing conditions. There is always chaos & often turmoil when entities come together under one ruler. People get replaced, destroyed, exiled, & often forgotten about. Think of the many times conquerors destroy records, letters, books, & art to diminish the perceived value of those the items belonged to. The wildfire demonstrate the emotional toil of many who lost their homes or had their homes forever damaged. Fleeing from your home is such a heartbreak that many will experience in their lives.
While I don't condone violence in theory, I do feel that the justice system in this "free country" is too heavily biased against black people & inefficient in prosecuting the real criminals in this country. Those who bulldoze communities, poison the soil & food, & anyone who perpetuates the cancerous legacy of Caucasian delusion. These are the wretched humans who keep everyone isolated, uneducated, & stuck with limited to no opportunity for success. When will their time come? Is it now, in the "age of Aquarius" (if you believe in astrology)? I'm an Aquarius. Am I seeing something impending or am I just reading the past & seeing the same patterns all over again?
