The decline of the west is due to the internal contradictions of the core components that make up such a category. All things are transient and therefore the end of the old and the creation of the new is inevitable
neighbor
Haha.
Haha.
In all seriousness, the west isn't really declining
Compared to the past, life's pretty good
Power structures and hierarchies are much easier to maintain when international information does not freely flow/cross pollinate and people don’t physically move beyond their community
technology and bureaucracy
It’s all this damn soy turning everyone gay
we're comfy but we lost our soul
when was the last time we did something cool?
like the moon landings
Moon landing
Uhhh
Invented the internet?
it's just not the same as the big projects we used to do
Yeah the Internet is just a small thing
Not really significant
the internet got established in the 90's
that's over 30 years ago
why aren't we landing men on Mars
The decline of the West is caused by Ultranationalism and Ultraconservativism. Look at Europe, Fascism is on the rise. Ideas which originate from a very dark age of history are being brought back to life again, and once parties like LePen's take control of European nations, the West will have entered a path from which it will not escape without another catastrophic World War.
@Ronin SpaceX is trying
Also excessive Globalism is an issue.
hell, we can't even re-create the moonshot if we wanted to
Patriotism should be kept to a rational level.
What do you mean by that @Koninos
Excessive globalism
just rebuild??? the moon rocket???
duh??
@GlobalDelete The annoying tendency of always favoring Globalism.
Can you give an example of that
***Canada.***
Yeah I don't live in Canada I don't know what you're talking about
Excessive Globalism is bad because my country is the best.
ALWAYS Favoring Globalism and Predatory Multinational companies over favoring rational Patriotism and small, local entrepreneurships is one of the many factors which have contributed to the decline of the West.
Ah
Oh yeah
Local industry getting fucked over
