The Western Empire is crumbling
Discussing the culture, the economy, the military, and how these all tie into the collapse of the Western Empire as we know it
Intro
I’ve been outside of the US for some time now, so it has given me a whole different perspective on life back in the West. I still follow the happenings of the US and, the world in general, so I continue to keep my finger on the pulse of the global zeitgeist.
Even before embarking outside of the Western world I could see the writing on the wall. I had done a bit of traveling before making this decision so I knew how foreign lands would better fit my life and how I could best situate myself for the future.
And the more time I watch it from afar, the more and more I see how clear it is that the empire is crumbling right before our eyes. It’s really an incredible time to be alive – a truly momentous time in world history.
Unfortunately, what this means for the world is a lot of pain and turmoil. Empires don’t end peacefully. For such extreme global changes it, by design, must be wrought with conflict.
Culturally
This is perhaps the core of the rot that’s infiltrated the US. It has infected the other areas I’ll cover in this article because of how successful the subversion has become, and thus I’ll spend the most time covering this aspect first.
The fact is, the America of yesteryear is never coming back. That America was bonded by religion, traditions, family, common goals. The America today is irreparably divided across every conceivable measure.
The family unit is broken, replaced by Big Daddy Government and the welfare state. This always happens in the pursuit of the State wanting to be seen as God, to provide everything for society.
Religion is considered an obsolete concept, replaced by ‘spiritual’ people that unknowingly are getting sucked into the pagan practices of old (but calling it ‘New Age’).
Traditions that were once celebrated are gone, replaced by woke revisions (can’t say Merry Christmas anymore, it’s Happy Holidays, remember?).
There’s no common thread holding together America anymore.
California is preparing reparations for black families. There never was slavery in California. And the dollar figures they’re proposing are massive. The entire state of California’s budget is about $350 billion, yet this ‘task force’ is looking at payouts amount to more than double that, at $800 billion. That should end well...
Let’s also look at the recent mass shooting in Nashville, TN, by a trans person. The White House and various blue checkmarks on Twitter seemingly want to focus more on trans rights instead of the actual victims that died. What a circus it’s all become.
The majority of people are still caught up in the false illusion of the two-party system. They believe Republicans and Democrats are really that different – when in reality they’re two wings of the same bird. Both sides might squabble for the TV and media, but in practice they are only there to grow the power and reach of the State. Just because one moves a bit slower doesn’t mean the end result isn’t the same. Culturally both sides won’t ever be able to truly come together on anything of substance – they’ll just dig their heels in for ‘their team’ to win.
A cultural measure of a dying empire is the art that it creates as well. Douglas Murray, a bestselling author and multiple time guest on the Joe Rogan Experience, mentioned this during an appearance,
At the end of every empire they get interested in sexual fluidity, hermaphrodite, and so on.” Murray continued that trans issues “will be seen to be a late-empire, a bad sign of things falling apart.” Rogan responded, “That is fascinating that at the end of empires they get really concerned with gender, and hermaphrodites, and those things.”
In the same interview, regarding the identity of so-called nonbinary people,
“(It) is a brilliant one if you wanted to pull apart society because, again, get people to pretend that men and women don't exist. Get people to pretend that one of the things that we’ve all known from the beginning doesn't exist, and you can do all of the other stuff, too. It’s a brilliant one to demoralize people on.”
Sound about right?
In today’s age we can also trace this back to the Frankfurt School and their teachings of Cultural Marxism as well. There is no truth. Everything is subjective.
What it means, culturally, to be American has all but been lost. It can still be found in pockets of small town America, but that’s not where the power lies.
The social engineers have successfully divided the country in ways that can’t be undone.
Not only can we tie this subversion back to the Frankfurt School, but to the Soviet Union’s work in ideological subversion as well. Defected KGB agent Yuri Alexandrovich Bezmenov gave some incredible interviews close to 40 years ago.
In 1984, Bezmenov gave an interview to G. Edward Griffin from which much can be learned today. His most chilling point was that there’s a long-term plan put in play by Russia to defeat America through psychological warfare and “demoralization.” It’s a long game that takes decades to achieve but it may already be bearing fruit.
Bezmenov made the point that the work of the KGB mainly does not involve espionage, despite what our popular culture may tell us. Most of the work, 85% of it, was “a slow process which we call either ideological subversion, active measures, or psychological warfare.”
…
Here’s how he further defined ideological subversion:
“What it basically means is: to change the perception of reality of every American to such an extent that despite of the abundance of information no one is able to come to sensible conclusions in the interest of defending themselves, their families, their community, and their country.”
Bezmenov described this process as “a great brainwashing” that has four basic stages. The first stage is called “demoralization” which takes from 15 to 20 years to achieve. According to the former KGB agent, that is the minimum number of years it takes to re-educate one generation of students that is normally exposed to the ideology of its country — in other words, the time it takes to change what the people are thinking.
Check out this 13 minute clip of perhaps his most famous interview. He also described the other three basic stages of the ‘great brainwashing’ in it.
Side note but keep this in mind if someone says that those running the show don’t play the long game, spanning generations. The KGB clearly were engaging in it. Rockefellers and others of their type have admitted the same. The National Socialists had plans for a 1,000 year Reich.
It’s called ‘The Great Work’ and they know it can’t be completed in just a couple of years. It takes time to subvert the minds and gain control while the frogs slowly boil in the pot.
Economically
The economy and overall standard of life that Americans have is largely based upon the dominance of the US dollar. The military force helps as well, but it’s mainly there to force the global use and adherence to the petrodollar scheme. More and more countries/trade blocs are actively working on an alternative to the legacy US monetary system.
The manufacturing base of the US has disappeared across oceans, growing the middle classes of those countries at the expense of the typical American. Ever wonder why there are so many Chinese tourists across the world in recent years?
Government spending and entitlement programs are out of control too.
The federal government spent $6.27 trillion in FY 2022. This means federal spending was equal to 25% of the total gross domestic product (GDP), or economic activity, of the United States that year.
Yes, you read that right: 25%!!!
The national debt is closing in on 32 trillion dollars.
Republicans might come out every once in a while and say, “hey we should cut spending a bit” but that never amounts to anything.
Where are the politicians with guts that’ll come out and say “let’s just slash a bunch of programs, or a fixed percentage from all programs”? They don’t exist. Ron Paul was perhaps the closest in recent times. That’s why the system will collapse.
Increases in debt will continue as well – it’s inherent to the system. And soon the US won’t be able to bully countries into accepting all of its debt and will come back to the US with a vengeance. Refer to my Karmic Law article for a more esoteric look at this principle. The world has felt the brunt of the US’ weaponization of the dollar and they will gladly transition to a viable alternative once it presents itself.
Militarily
While the US military is obsessed with gender games along with diversity / inclusion, the Chinas and Russias of the world are focused on efficiency. They’re not caught up in such nonsense.
The US Air Force recently dropped its contract with Lockheed Martin over failed tests of its hypersonic missiles. Meanwhile Russia already has such missiles. Look at the past several military engagements / wars the US has been involved in – absolute failures each and every one of them. Trillions of dollars laundered (I mean...wasted) on the so-called ‘war on terror’.
Other countries smell this weakness on a primal level. They smell blood in the water and know it’s time to make their move.
Europe
When I talk of the Western world, that mainly means the US and Europe. We can include Australia in there too.
Europe is further down the path of destruction in many ways than America is, which is hard to believe in some ways. For a region with such a storied past, it has fallen rather quickly.
But it’s a planned destruction. Just look at Angela Merkel and what she did to the country by importing the third world, then Germany is surprised when the country starts acting more like the third world! What a concept…
Unfortunately Germans have been guilt-tripped into accepting all forms of diversity for their supposed role in ‘six million’ of the so-called chosen people.
Germany’s inflation is out of control and will only worsen, mainly as a result of the failed experiment known as the EU (Germany props up the entire region) but also due to their sanctions against big bad Putin, which are backfiring in a major way.
Germany’s food CPI for March was 22.3%:
To top it all off, the leaders of Scotland, Ireland, and Britain are all from middle eastern backgrounds.
Conclusion / Solutions
With all of this in mind, what’s the path forward for those that see these cracks in the dam and want to act accordingly to protect their future?
I certainly don’t have all the answers. Each individual needs to assess where they’re at in life and what they ultimately want.
However, if you also see the writing on the wall and choose to do nothing, then honestly that’s a coward’s move. It’s blackpilled, apathetic thinking.
I suggest spending sometime outside of the Western world and to see how it suits you.
It’s refreshing to me not seeing a bunch of blue-haired people around me like is so common back in the states. It’s refreshing to know I’m spending time in countries that know what a woman is.
Of course there are myriad other problems with these places, but that’s where the personal assessment I alluded to above comes into place. Figure out what’s important to you and take action.
Some ideas (not financial advice, of course):
Be your own bank – invest in previous metals, cryptos if you believe in the technology and want a more speculative asset
Obtain a foreign residency (or two)
Eliminate debt
Be as independent as possible – income, assets, dependency on the system as much as possible
Diversify into foreign currencies
Another macrolevel solution is for secession of various parts of the US. Same for the EU. If projects such as Greater Idaho Movement actually became a reality, that represent hope because such regions have various threads that tie the people together.
WHY SHOULD COUNTIES WANT TO BECOME A PART OF IDAHO?
1. American Values: Oregon will continue to violate more and more American values and American freedoms because northwestern Oregon has 79% of Oregon’s population and voters. Fortunately, Boise has only 13% of Idaho’s population.
2. Law and Order: Oregon refuses to protect citizens from criminals, rioters, wildfire arsonists, illegals, and the homeless, but then infringes on your right to defend your family with firearms. Idaho enforces the law.
3. Low Tax: Idaho is the state with the 8th smallest tax burden, and Oregon ranks 33rd, according to https://taxfoundation.org/tax-freedom-day-2019 . Combining all taxes together, including sales tax, the average Idahoan paid $1722 less in taxes in 2019 than the average Oregonian. That’s averaging together every adult or child, employed, retired or unemployed. Oregon tax rates continue to go up due to a lack of willingness to control spending.
4. Safety: Idaho allows forests to be managed to prevent destruction of housing from huge wildfires.
5. Thriving Economy: Idaho has less regulation than any other state, leading to low unemployment and a much lower cost of living. Idaho’s approach to regulation and taxation would allow our rural industries to revive and employ us again.
6. Representation: The ruling party in the Oregon Legislature only has two representatives from a rural district or from eastern or southern Oregon. But our reps would be in the ruling party in Idaho, where our concerns and needs would be heard.
As we’re seeing with BRICS+, there’s a regionalization movement happening in the world as the Western Empire crumbles.
The same could, and should, happen at as local level as possible in the US too (and all over the world, ideally). The country is too diverse and too divided to come together in any meaningful way. Let projects such as The Greater Idaho Movement be an example of what’s possible.
As the empire crumbles, the world will become a more chaotic place. Transitions of this magnitude are unprecedented. We are entering a historic period of time, so I’m planning accordingly.
