    We do still have external enemies, the only difference is that they go beyond simply having nukes trained at us, now they fund our political campaigns too.

        Well. Yeah, during the Cold War the other side was a bunch of godless Communists.

        Now the other side is a hyper-capitalist oligarchy, and a good chunk of our politicians openly embrace that. The Republican party is just a bunch of Oligarchs-in-training.
