It’s a flawed question.

The concept that living in a hegemony is acceptable is incoherent.

Wishing upon a star that humans were better is not a solution.

Revoking the Pax Americana frees America to pursue more wars of conquest. Not fewer. It's a revocation of the rules-based international order that America (and the former Soviet Union) put in place following WWII.

It similarly frees every other wannabe global and regional hegemony to assert their spheres of influence.

  • Humans rejected that and now we’re headed into a global ochlocracy

      I'm American. Why would the largest military on the planet not be ready for rule by might? Revoking Pax Americana (and the rules-based international order it was built on, aspirational as it may have often been) just means our elites can go back to 19th-century rules.
