The USA is on a massive downward trajectory. It has already culturally collapsed, the only question is how many other nations are going to be taken down with it? It looks like its the entirety of the "white" countries. In China, they have third graders doing programming, calculus, and art; in the West, they are more interested in teaching kids how to use dildos, anal fisting, cross-dressing, stripping for money, rebelling against their parents, CRT , becoming influencers and being self-absorbed than intellectual endeavors. Sad times indeed. The technocrats will only gain more power as the West disintegrates. As the WEF says, traditional governments are obsolete.

Seems to me the balance of power currently sits with leftist tech monopolies and that's influencing our opinions on the future of the West. One would swear that most people agree with late-term abortions...but that's really not the case. It simply appears that way because every loudspeaker in town is screaming it is.

I think that decentralization is probably going to change how we see things in time to come. Facebook and others won't be able to compete unless they also decentralize...but their business model doesn't allow for that and would require a complete overhaul. Meta has spunked a ton of money thus far and it's not clear if it will be worthwhile for them. 

Most people hate their data being shared and can't stand that Meta own the rights to their Ista and Facebook images...So if someone comes along and offers services that don't rely on ownership of user data...things are going to look quite different. 

As technologies move through the *.0s, legacy institutions generally don't keep up. Not sure why, but it probably has to do with them not being dy default behind the curve and generally having to catch up to what innovators have already envisioned and set in motion. By the time Myspace woke up, FaceBook had already lapped them. Some of the decentralized technologies I've been looking at are probably going to do the same to Web 2 platforms that currently appear infallible. 

Sanity has "sort of" held its own despite the onslaught, so hopefully, with the rise of AI and a more decentralized world, we should see an uptick in the West again. If for no other reason than because it provides democracy, freedom of speech and the right to privacy...which has been a winning formula for a while now. We relied on politicians to deliver that to us but over time they monetized it...I think technology is likely to wrestle it back in favor of the populace.
