The world's dominant ideology is breaking. What will replace it? — Ryan Cooper


The progression of bourgeoise liberalism was inevitable owing to internal contradictions among social, political and economic liberalism. These contradictions arose largely owing to the dominance of economic liberalism as bourgeois liberalism, which is based mostly on freedom from constraint at the expense of freedom to choose and freedom for. self-develoment and expression. Just as in the old order, only a few were actually free.

What will replace it?

Most likely (I hope), it will be a synthesis of non-bourgeois liberalism and multipolar traditionalisms — after the fallout settles. What's happening now is a civilizational change that began in earnest at the time of the aftermath WWI. This advanced in the aftermath of WWII, and is now again coming to head.

Kinder gentler capitalism or fascism. Take your pick.

Marx was right about the barbarism aspect.
