I see the madness of the first world, I see how their societies are tearing themselves from the inside and its something that I just fail to process. This is not me screaming against the West or its values, on the contrary, I am westerner. But what people are doing scars the very foundation of my mind.
For decades the youth has been rebelling against the authorities, and for decades the authorities have been giving ground as the older generations go and the new ones come. In my teen years I came to think that the future predicted by the cyberpunk genre of cience fiction was an accurate prediction of the future, but then something happend. Something that I think has gone unnoticed by almost everybody.
All of the sudden, there is nothing left to rebel against.
I am not really sure of when exactly happend but it has indeed. Pause for a moment and think about it:
- The Western idea of Family? tore to pieces
- The Respect for moral codes of all? gone with the wind
- The very idea of stability? bleeding out
- Respect, considaration or even fear of the figures of power? there is non of it left
I could go on but you get the idea.
And now what does the youth does, how do they channel their frustrations? , their anger? ; how can they explore a world that is already mad? how they can be anything in a world so much streamline that even the "rebellious" music bands would have been considered mainstream just 15 years ago?
In nihilistic desperation they turn to, what its to them, the final figures of power. Reason, Logic, and even Science have fallen victimes of this new wave of rebellion.
In an act of Great Arrogance, of fury and frustration that can only be vented by the youth, they have turned against the last things that hold our societies together. Gender relativism, the denial of the very biological laws that makes human; the blind joy they experience when they fight for justice, only to be used as useful idiots; Their rush to experience everything posible, to be everything posible, only to end up being nothing in the end.
But they are not alone in this, the Powers that Be are behind them. Backing them and supporting them in exchange of short term gains. If they are guilt of something for certain, is arrogance.
And as the western nations turn innwards, as their societies become concern only concern with whats happening between their borders, the Great Game goes on. And while the West seems that is starting to crack new powers and players lurk in the shadows, ready to step up when the moment is prime, actors that may not be as "benevolent" as the ones that were.
In the ultimate act of Rebellious arrogance they have brought our world to the brink of Chaos.
In Turky democracy has died in an ovation. Rusia, a nation with nuclear weapons, near economic collapse. Europe is in turmoil, unable to find a future. All the while actors and pieces once kept in check are rising in influence and power.
I would said that all seems hopepless, but I too am guilt of bieng blind. Of forgeting a basic rule, in this case of physics.
"For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction"
The rebellious old have become the establishment of today, the "man", the system, Big Brother. And what is that they all have in common? they are not cool.
The arrogance of the rebelious has cause the conservatives of old to be the counter culture of today, a shift has happend, and most did not see it. I for sure did not.
A changing world lies ahead, a world that is far less stable, far less reliable than the one of yesterday.
All brought by the Arrogance of the rebellious and the self-rightous. How fickle is the faith of nations....
If you made it to the end, thank you. I just wanted to apologise if this looks like a rant or something the sorts but this is something I have to vent ths thought somewhere and this site comunity looks like the respectful sort.
I am looking foward to be part of this comunity.
