The West is in total decline. We are living through the complete collapse of the old order and the values of Western Civilization are being replaced before our very eyes.
All of our advantages are being withered away and there is really nothing special about the West.
China is confident and is executing a plan to grow very quickly. They have embraced markets and their people are growing wealthy.
Personally I'm betting on China to win, my money is there. The Chinese work hard, they produce everything, their government works, their society is united and peaceful and the 21st century is literally theirs to take.
What do we have to offer the world? Soy Beans? Scrap metal? A government that doesn't produce results? I have trouble finding a single advantage.
- benjohnson 6y agoI not bullish on the West - it’s being replaced by other cultures quicker than it can adapt. However the West still has a lot to offer the world from mRNA to SpaceX to Seneca. Frankly, China’s success had come from copying western civilization and while the west may not survive, the spark will endure. Just elsewhere.
- kwere 6y agoyeah but they built a nasa clone in 10 years. Till now they have managed to get everithing done on a scale unimaginable for anyone in the west. Our only hope is that hey will collapse from recent overheating of economy and political authoritarianism that is plaguing china from early 2010'
