It is sometimes hard to see things clearly when you are invested in the outcome. Not that your skepticism is not warranted. Still, I should not that decline of the west are not some sort of weird and recent concept. There are a fair amount of books that cover the subject including some fairly often quoted ones comparing US to Rome.

He might be an African, but even Africans know that very little comes from America.
No African is going to tell you they want an American car over a German. Continue this across other physical stuff and none of them come from America.
He would understand Big Tech is very rich, but he also knows that hardly helps all the other millions of Americans.
