In this analysis, we can see that the domestic roots of America’s hegemonism are deep and solid. Before the U.S. falls from its hegemonic height, in order to shake its hegemonic thinking, we must eradicate America’s unitary ideology of freedom, change America’s nationalism and conceptual framework, make them believe that there are social systems and life styles in the world that are more admirable than America’s. When hearing foreigners’ criticism of America’s intervention everywhere, Americans often smugly quip, “of course, people all over the world are shouting ‘Yankees, Go home!’ but they always add, ‘bring me with you.’ This is the logic of the American hegemony! We can therefore conclude that only when there are no more boisterous assemblies of immigration and visa applicants in front of various American embassies overseas, and only when an outgoing emigration occurs in the United States, will the American hegemonic mentality be extinguished, will the age of multipolarity arrive.

IOW, when Hell freezes over. The Chinese should get ready for a long wait.

The only way there could be an "outgoing emigration" from the United States, is if there were another multiethnic, economically free and dynamic, immigrant-welcoming nation somewhere on the face of the earth to take them. In other words, a virtual cultural and economic clone of the United States must be posited.

China is itself unlikely to ever evolve to become such a nation. So it appears that Chinese concern with the American "hegemon" might merely have to be shifted to a new and perhaps more vital hegemon in the future.

A truly multipolar world can only come about when nations are free and their people are relatively free to pursue their individual economic goals, and when peoples are truly able to direct their nations' policies through stable relatively democratic institutions.

Well its gonna be a LONG wait. The last power that tried to overtake us failed miserably.
