Sure there are the ignorant and stupid - the US never had an exclusive on stupidity or ignorance - just an apparent higher percentage who show their ignorance and stupidity.
Destroying the world? Sure - currently that is the case both environmentally and in agression. Forget the world and look no further than the US as a country - that's being destroyed at a rapid rate and consuming 25% of the worlds natural resources with less than 5% of world population. (That is friggin sad - probably over all else on the longer term)
Survive without us? The world never did rely on the US or any country. The US has little of offer the world other than weapons trading, a volume of wheat - the only two items which are not trade deficits. Bottom line - ya expect the world to rely on an unsustainable country for survival??
Some folks need to get out more - the world never was about the US.
