Afghanistan isn't an apt example, IMO
Afghanistan is THE apt example. Many empires have been broken trying to conquer Afghanistan. The Persians, the Greeks, the Mongols, the British, the Soviets and now the Americans.

And what I am saying is that the American Republic may fall and be replaced with an American empire, not that the USA in general will fall.
Yeah that sometimes happens when empires fall. The Russian Empire was replaced by the Soviet Union, The Roman Republic was replaced by the Roman Empire the eastern part of which, in turn, became the Byzantine Empire when the Roman Empire finally fell.

It may well happen to America but it hasn't happened yet. While America of today might be markedly different from the America of 1776, it's still the same empire.

the real debate is did they become an empire post WW2 with the CIA creating puppet states? Because other than Manifest Destiny the USA didn't meddle too much in other countries affairs and was very isolationist compared to today. Or is that merely there Caesar moment where it is technically a democracy but acts like an empirical dictatorship?
Glubb goes into this. The United States expanding westward and conquering barbarian Native American tribes, that is their Age of Pioneers, that is them becoming an empire. What you're thinking, about the post-war period when they became world police, that's not pioneering in the traditional sense. Plus, like I said before, they're not particularly successful world police. Stalemate in Korea, lost in Vietnam, lost in Iraq, lost in Afghanistan and they've managed to piss off almost every country they tried to regime change, with Cuba, South America, Iran and now Ukraine being some of the biggest examples.

It is unnecessary to labour the point, which we may attempt to summarise briefly. Any regime which attains great wealth and power seems with remarkable regularity to decay and fall apart in some ten generations. The ultimate fate of its component parts, however, does not depend on its internal nature, but on the other organisations which appear at the time of its collapse and succeed in devouring its heritage. Thus the lives of great powers are surprisingly uniform, but the results of their falls are completely diverse.
This part is very true. People who point to cultural degeneracy or decline always act as though the decline itself causes the fall. No no no, the decline is merely a harbinger of the fall. What usually "causes" the fall of an empire is a big pile of problems all occurring around the same time. Famine, political infighting, barbarians raiding the outskirts, peasant uprisings, etc. The fall of empire isn't caused by any one thing and it's not caused by "degeneracy" either.

Internet commenters usually act like a society becomes degenerate and then degeneracy causes them to fall apart. "We let the gays in and now our cuntry is collapsing!" Nah bro. The moral decay merely ensures citizens will not unite against outside forces to preserve their empire.

Degeneracy is the beginning, but it is not the source.

What he's doing is definitely not called "fighting," although it may involve another word which begins with "F."

"Semitic rats" should cover both degenerate races pretty nicely.
