    The point Becker was making is that multipolarity in and of itself isn’t going to end capitalism. Only socialism can do that. Multipolarity between capitalist countries gave us two world wars.

      I believe that’s what I stated. Multipolarity isn’t the end goal, which is global communism; but, it is a necessary step to take in order to reach that goal given the cards we are dealt with.

        Oh I’m saying that Becker doesn’t support multipolarity per se. It’s good that US dominance is weakening, but replacing it with dominance from other countries or other blocs of countries isn’t what we should be striving for.

        (though I don’t think that’s what people here mean when they say “multipolarity”. I believe we’re all in agreement with him on this one)
