It has nothing to do with autonomy!
The US only implemented reforms to placate the working class and stop them from getting any ideas of revolution. The Cold War was an ideological war, so once the USSR fell the spectre of revolution was gone. The Cold War "proved" that communism doesn't work and there will never be a global proletarian revolution and there's no need to placate the masses to keep them passive.
So, like I keep saying, that's why everything good is being destroyed. They believe it's not necessary because the threat of communist revolution is gone. The illusion of democracy is gone, now the ruling class can just do whatever it wants with no consequences.
Who cares if climate change kills the poors?
I'm sorry to break it to you but not everything is about your oppressive communist revolution. Not any more than any other historical counter to the liberal world. Don't go through the world thinking everything is about what you care about.
All the hammer sees is nails.
