In a hundred years, how do you think the 2020s will be remembered? Will it be called a time of unprecedented technological advancement or will the mongrelization of humanity and the loss of top-tier people be lamented more? Will this loss be considered an exchange worthy of the technology that we enjoy? Will they who write about this period also enjoy these technologies?
The thirdies will keep flooding the first world in order to loot it dry, then they will wonder why the wealth stops flowing. Then the impulse to loot is even greater as the "waterfall won't flow forever anymore". Then what's left of humanity will be a mixed tribe of people guarding technology they can no longer maintain or understand until the sun explodes.

>>18069641The most advanced technology comes out of either Israel, Taiwan or Korea.
>>18069652They will get brownified once the west has dried up.
>>18069624>a time of unprecedented technological advancementReminder that AI summary is literally stealing traffic. You put something online and Google makes damn sure that you will not make any money because nobody ever sees your work.Literally killing the Internet harder than Social Media, they are.
>>18069652>>18069645>TSMC, a company on a small island, produces over 90% of the world’s most advanced chips >TSMC relies on dutch company ASML for EUV lithography machines>ASML depends on German Company Carl Zeiss, the only firm in the world capable of making mirrors precise enough for ASML’s requirements.>The light source for ASML’s EUV machines is produced by a single company in San Diego.>The photoresists used to print transistor patterns are produced by Japanese firms like JSR and Tokyo Ohka Kogyo.>The ultra-pure quartz needed to make silicon wafers comes entirely from a single mine in Spruce Pine, North Carolina.>The copper and rare-earth materials inside chips are mined and refined across Chile, the Congo, and China.>The specialized gases used in chipmaking, like neon and fluorine, largely come from Ukraine and Japan.>The design blueprints for these chips often come from American companies like NVIDIA, AMD, and Apple, which rely on software tools from U.S. firms like Synopsys and Cadence.Remove any single piece and the whole system collapses.
>>18069624I'm in my 20s. Sometimes I want to just close my eyes and wake up in a world in which this isn't true. This wasn't my fault. It wasn't my parents' fault. I want to fight it but I don't know how.
>>18069624The west will lose its prestige and with it the ability to project power globally. So no more gay shit and diversity and muh democracy. China will emerge as the new global superpower and will sooner or later unify with Taiwan but things won’t change much because they don’t seem like the kind to care about being world police. So basically instead of a single country each region will just have a different region power.
>>18069716Sounds like you're describing current year but with extra steps.
>>18069674>highest standard of living of all time>easy access to the King James and Biblical preaching>it still thinks everything sucksMaybe you should stop watching porn and loving money.
>>18069624People see middle eastern wars or the whole ukraine bit as the proof that the whole end of history thing in the 90's was optimistic westerners but it did come true. The world IS governed by stateless neoliberal economics and those nothingburger conflicts that just murder millions of people without actually changing the economic status quo one bit are proof of this. Russia is at war. Yeah, so fucking what. Europe still buys their oil and they still buy shit from China. He's not gonna do USSR 2.0 anytime soon. Fuckall changed. Trump is saying bullshit on tv again. So fucking what. He's still subject to the stock market. He can only do pointless theatrics for his geriatric voterbase. There's a million pissant little wars in africa. SO FUCKING WHAT when all the groups are fighting over who gets to work their people to death to sell westerners the same minerals. The 2020's are just gonna be the second decade in which nothing happened. Not culture. Not politics. Nothing. The second of many mind you because the technocrats have perfected the systems required to make sure you can't fart the wrong way without a dozen cameras pointed at you, let alone try and rebel.
>>18069718The west is at its weakest point post-ww2 but its still powerful enough to project power.
The painful realization that Ted Kazinsky was right after big tech and AI has ruined everything while making zero profit.
>>18069765Fukuyama claimed that both Russia and China would become liberal democracies, not that there are interest groups in the US who think that the 3D Fallout games are the future we should work towards, now that we set the weather system up to deliver the necessary desertification.
>>18069917Kaczynski was a retarded nigger though, nothing justifies his actions and most of his work was diluted tripe, inspired by much better texts and writings contributed to groups like the John Birch Society.
>>18069624>The age of dishonesty
>>18070131Broken clock, AI is eating the economy and it no longer matters that most people are suffering because GDP keeps going up and Nvidia is 9% of the NASDAQ as tech companies make nothing of value, facing losses every quarter but have increased valuations every week.
>>18069624The first signs of what is coming. This decade will be nothing but a warning, for what exactly remains to be seen
>>18069624My guess is that it'll be remembered as a time when the "end of history" predictions were starting to see a little bit more pushback with global conflicts like Russia-Ukraine, and the massive unilateral support against what the west perceives to be dictatorships>will the mongrelization of humanityNo one will think this, let alone any serious historian. It's a really fringe opinion beyond westfallen people on here
>>18069670This is nuts, capped for future use

>>18069624It will be the beginning of the fake and gay era.
>>18070805>No one will think this, let alone any serious historianIt's literally *the* main issue driving the culture wars and populist politics in the West
>>18069624> be you, some schizo in 2025> *oh woe is me, the mongrelization of humanity, we lost le top-tier people of the 2020s*Mfers in 2124 will be bio-engineered gigachads living to 150, cured of cancer and depression by gene therapies we invented. They'll look back at our primitive asses struggling with pandemics and climate change and think... > holy shit, they were building the foundation with stone tools and still made it work
>>18072218The notion of eternal technological progress and post-scarcity is a bigger cope than the afterlife.
>>18072218>1000 yearsStone ages.
>>18072153>>18072165>>18072177I mean I'm replying to a wojak thread on the most /pol/ adjacent board so it'd sure seem like it if you get all your politics from 4chan, kiwi, and telegram channels, but yes, that's an uncommon issue to the vast majority of people. Even conservatives held up as HEROES don't get mad over race mixing anymore, just illegal immigration and "bottom of the barrel culture shouldn't be promoted" which is a different issue that's racialized partially by progressive anyhowUnless you meant "more and more dumb Walmart people/social media drones" by "mongrelization of humanity" and not "SAVE THE WHITE RACE FROM BEING NEGRIFIED 1488 SHADILAY" in which case sure, I guess it's talked about by Petersonbros, which is a way bigger faction than race war people
>>18074270They are eating the dogs, they are eating the cats
>>18074270>PetersonbrosJordan Peterson?...Anon it's not 2015 anymore
>>18074270You are dumb and retarded. I get all my politics from unz.com and nobody cares about judenkike penisbike. White people enable and invent and maintain high technology and they're only ~7% of the population and falling. I don't want to live in a world that houses 9 billion niggers, sorry.
>>18075103> I don't want to live in a world that houses 9 billion niggersThen why don't you kill yourself? Demographic predictions are clear on how much niggers will be in the future. There are more people born in Nigeria lone then on whole of Europe.
>>18075166The models of the 2010's were much dire than reality has actually transpired since. Fertility now declines everywhere, and in the US non-hispanic whites have a higher TFR than blacks.

The future will be trans for 80% of men. You haven't seen anything close to what the porn will become with advanced AI and virtual environments.The only limitation is your own gay mind which demands harder and harder stimmies to feel pleasure. So the end destination is inevitably some variant of trans, which will be very affordable and state assisted.Only a small number of alphas will fuck or do anything different. Population will need to be kept in extreme check with AI and advanced robotics, and sex for most normies will be unthinkable.You are witnessing the early "persecuted Christian" phase of the trans movement right now. In fifty years they will have full state power and transitioning will become a holy ritual.
>>18075209AI slop will oneshot women just like men. Remember women are the ones attracted to morbid entertainment more than men, think 50 Shades of Grey.The "lonely young man" phenomenon is a result of women getting access to education and white-collar workforce - and since women are repulsed by guys who make less than them, you get a bunch of lonely guys. I am in favor of banning porn and see low-effort stimulation as dangerous, but the current dynamic has several layers to it.
>>18074865Question of illegal immigration more than race, just framed as a cultural thing. Same with MS13/gangs. Also no one is talking about that anymore except for a few Haitians here and there butthurt over it, MAGAs have a short memory.>>18074974I still personally know one, plus all the people following his benzo arc
>>18075384>I still personally know oneYou personally know one, therefore Jordan Peterson is totally popular and relevant in 2025 while racism isn't. Vedy convincing!
>>18075166>Demographic predictionsIt's fucking nothing then.
>>18075384>Question of illegal immigration more than race, just framed as a cultural thingYes white Americans are tired of being ethnically cleansed and then blamed for it("white flight")
