The Collapse of Western Civilization Is Accelerating
Notas do episódio
Doug Casey joins Matt Smith from New Orleans to talk about the accelerating collapse of Western civilization. Doug says things have become so complex, top-heavy and corrupt that "there's a good chance we're actually gonna go over the precipice," and compares the moment to the collapse of the Bronze Age and the fall of Rome. They discuss the riots spreading across France and Europe, why inclusivity has replaced merit, and why Doug says we live in a fascist society, not a capitalist one. Doug walks through his list of what makes Western civilization unique, from free thought and free speech to property rights and the rule of law. Then the UK and Japan's 3-day emergency warnings, the leaked Pentagon plan for bases to run on their own for 90 days, how fragile the grid is, AI-found exploits, a possible Iran attack after the midterms, Brazil, and how to make your own household more resilient.
