We are entering an age of neo-feudalism because there is not much more to construct nor motivation to innovate (China doesn’t scare as hard as USSR). And when an entire generation adopts malaise and substitution like the Zoomers, the old hegemony of US dominance wanes, which sets the groundwork for a radicalized future after that period.
