Yeah, but no.
There are loads of things we can do, and a literally unimaginable amount of things we still (or never) aren't able to do. Technology as it currently stands only works because the entire world is involved. You need loads of technicians and engineers to keep everything working and they depend on materials coming from all over the world, supply lines and such.
Once that stops, everything stops. No more rare earth materials? Woopsie, no more phones and computers. Want to recycle them? That too requires supply lines.
Blow up an emp in space over the US and the entire country with all of its technology will be sent back to the 1700's within half a year.
Yeah, we might might might maybe be able to hold out with a few survivors but they would be the unlucky ones anyway
And for what? So that they can continue ravaging the world? Humanity, at this point, is a cancer and it should be removed. Find that cynical? I'm not wrong.
