2020年的美国经历了新冠确诊的人数从0到2000万的攀升,部分城市更经历了从初夏延续至秋季,由种族问题引发的大规模示威。2020年的美国国内充斥着不安和躁动。美国引以为荣的自由和民主,在2020年终究没有成为万能良药抵御新冠疫情,也更不可能弥合社会分化。美国这个可以称之为幸运的国度,在一张白纸上由一群理想主义者建立。本土躲过了两次世界大战的蹂凌,吸收过大量的精英移民,冷战时又将苏联这个对手逼入了死胡同。辽阔的土地和丰富的资源,相对公平的环境与稳定的制度,加之一代代人的努力,坐上了综合国力世界第一的位置在情理之中。这里是计算机与互联网的鼻祖,引领了电子商务的潮流,孕育出对传播方式影响深远的社交媒体科技公司;这里是月球探索的先驱,开创了私营公司探索宇宙的新纪元;这里有着众多全球顶尖的高校与研究机构,源源不断为社会注入创新的果实;这里有着世界领先的科技实力,以计算机、制药、医疗、航天、国防装备等领域作为支撑;还有着强大的文化输出能力,好莱坞每年不计其数的影视作品走向全球市场,影响着人们的思维与价值观。然而,在一目了然的诸多优势背后,这里也面临着日益增加的贫富差距,难以逆转的人口结构变化,国内意识形态分化的加剧,难以根治的种族矛盾与毒品枪支泛滥状况,以及滞后的小学至高中数学与科学等基础教育的一系列问题。国家的命运犹如个人的奋斗,逆水行舟不进则退。纵观人类历史,无论是强盛一时的罗马帝国,还是曾经称霸过世界的大不列颠,世界没有永恒,实力的此消彼长犹如月亮的盈亏圆缺。美国自南北战争之后开始逐渐整合的实力在二战后充分显现,更在冷战之后一跃以霸主的方式存在,只是这个绝对的地位还能维持多久。为了维护自身的利益与优越感,美国在未来对待中国这个在其看来意识形态与之完全不同的对手时,究竟会采用怎样的手段?中国又需要怎样面对?答案或许还在不远的将来。
