We inactive hear about Western, European or EU values. What are these values? There is talk of tolerance and human rights – whose man, what rights? This propaganda can no longer be listened to. It's the same oak language as late Brezhnev. Empty formulas, words about reversed meanings. On the example of Poland we saw these values in action: lying, greed, arrogance and hypocrisy – writes Jan Śliwa, and I agree 100%.
In 2010, Ian Morris published a book Why The West Rules – For Now – "Why the West governs – for now". This “for now” looked more like pro-form safety than a real option. The West triumphed in all fields. On the another side was the East – broken and reshaping russian Union and its satellite countries. And China, of expanding power, but inactive only catching up with the West. The remainder of the planet did not play a major role.
Today we see that this Western advantage is eroded. Russia is weakened, but especially militaryly it holds tight – its production of ammunition is many times larger than in the West, and the population is resilient to inconveniences. China is an economical power, in the production of material goods beat the West to the head. India is increasing economically, and is besides the most populous country in the world, including young society.
In the unipolar world, after the dissolution of the russian Union, the United States could impose their will everywhere—except for muslim countries, where they suffered a spectacular defeat. Today, erstwhile they want to impose sanctions on Russia, China and Iran, they simply trade among themselves, and have adequate resources, energy, food and method products so that these sanctions are not besides painful. But we don't only have 2 sides of the conflict, there are many more players. The basic ones are the USA, China and Russia, and India is coming to them. In the second line – Turkey, Iran, Israel, another BRICS countries. In addition, Taiwan, Ukraine and the full mediate east boiler are coming. And yet the European Union, made up of the flourishing colonial powers and erstwhile colonies, is approaching a extremist solstice. Let us besides not forget Poland, 1 half of which is in the alliance with the US and the another half with the German-French centre of the Union. Alliances and conflicts between these players happen in various configurations and concern various subjects: military, political economical and cultural.

The end of the West is simply a permanent subject at least from Oswald Spengler, which has been for 100 years. What's his next phase?
The prominent historian Niall Ferguson asks if we (West) are not like Soviets in the 1980s. The article was created during the Trump-Biden rivalry, which resembles the gerontocracy in Politburo from Brezhniev to Andropov. The russian men then destroyed wellness with vodka and cigarettes, Americans are presently doing so with fentanyl and akin substances. It's the consequence of misery and deficiency of religion in the future and sense of anything.
The demographic crisis makes future plans questionable. It is the consequence of real problems and catastrophic prophecies. According to Greta Thunberg, our civilization should have collapsed by now. It ruins on a burning planet, if not now, in 2 years. And there's anti-natalist propaganda.
Almost all Western countries are in dire debt. I guess everyone assumes that all this money will never be repaid. You might wonder if it'll always lead to an explosion. On the another hand, Germany, which has a balanced budget, is besides criticized, due to the fact that as a result, there is no money for infrastructure maintenance. For example, trains from Germany (Berlin, Hamburg, Munich) inactive have targets in Switzerland (Berno, Zurich), but if 1 leaves with a hold of 10-15 minutes, it stays in Basel and passengers gotta control to another. From Basel to Bern, Intercity goes no little than all half hour, so you can't wait for the marauders. Deutsche Bahn is just 1 of the business cards of the falling German economy.
There's talk of reindustrialization, but just throwing money distant isn't enough. It is essential to reconstruct supply chains so that material products are produced from which they are produced. And we request people – workers and engineers. It's going on, although the rich can buy it. Teaching a broker of control explanation and programming parallel processes is not easy.
