Historian Eric Hobsbawm, in his history books, loves to talk about the "winners" and "losers" of every period of history that he writes about.What are the winners and losers of our times (2001-2026)?Winners(Among nations)>the uncontested winner among nations is China>they have triumphed economically, diplomatically, politically, and they have changed the paradigm by proving that the Singapore model (authoritarian conservative government, liberal economics) overcomes the Denmark model (progressive liberal government, social conservative economics)(Among society)>the uncontested winner are western women>they have assumed almost every imaginable position of leadership in these short 25 years, and for the first in history, have surpassed men in near every field>women are now more educated, more socialized and richer(Among culture)>the uncontested winner is East Asia (Korea & Japan)>as western culture became more politicized to compensate for the many failures of the Denmark model and equality and freedom are weaponized to empower states, people have fled to less political, more universal cultural industries, less concerned with education and more with entertaining
>>525956223is that the taco truck chick? what i would do for her to sit on my face and ride the clam rattler 9000 for hours on end.
>>525956223Losers(Among nations)>the uncontested greatest loser is Germany>Germany was the last bastion of the industrial revolution in the west, with a single factory producing more cars than all of Italy combined>Germany seems to have entered a century of humiliation of sorts. Their infrastructure is bombed in a terror attack, they are forced to increase military spending to fight against their historical trading partner, they face record bankrupcies, and their society is facing immense strife to accomodate the migrants of american wars in the Middle-East>meanwhile, Germany struggles with bearing the weight of an ever more empoverished and isolated European Union(Among society)>the uncontested losers are GenZ>first generation to be materially poorer than the ones that came before since the industrial revolution began>GenZ lack the numbers to sway the regime in progressive liberal governments, face far too high costs of living in order to innovate, and struggle with unsurmountable and widespread mental illness>GenZ is distinguishably more affected by immigration and failures in foreign policy, with many countries slowly but surely reinstating draft policy for the century of war that comes(Among culture)>the uncontested loser is the videogame>once, it was thought that the videogame would replace film as the largest cultural industry>yet this industry is quickly stagnating, the rising costs of technology required for computers is making gaming ever more expensive, and gamers & developers themselves have failed to elevate their craft to the status of artI think this is a far summary that Hobsbawm would write of our time if he were alive.
>>525956590Yep, that is her. Venus incarnate.
Interesting take.Bump for the introduction.
>>525956223>WinningJews>Losing(You)
>>525956223i think the jews and jeets are winning and whites are losing
>>525957397sadly, this is the real truth, and any of the above that is true is merely because the jews made it that way in furtherance of their takeover of the West
>>525956796>>first generation to be materially poorer than the ones that came before since the industrial revolution began*Second* generation.Millennials are poorer than boomers.
>>525956796Video games aren't art?I am so confused. Like what Hollywood is winning?
western women have never been more miserable
>>525957303>>525959596Hobsbawm is a materialist. He does not factor in happiness. He cares more about who owns what. And women are owning everything. They are materially wealthier, even in the empoverished and ruined GenZ. He'd without not a single doubt>>525958386Eastern Asia culture is winning. Videogames may achieve the state of art someday, but the immense costs of buying videogame devices and the scarcity of such computer parts due to competitive AI applications will remain a forever challenge for videogames even to be made.Videogames did not deliver the promisse of becoming the new literature or the new cinema.
>>525956223I need Serena to smack my balls with an assortment of root vegetables
>>525960479She is gorgoeus
>>525956590>is that the taco truck chick?what's this lore? qrd? I don't know who she is
>>525956223Chinese are losing and Indians are winning BIG.
>>525956223>>525956796>muh Asia>muh Germanyamerican propaganda. Calling Germany the global loser and not, say, Ukraine and Iran (which might well cease to exist within half a decade) makes it obvious.
>>525960191>Eastern Asia culture is winning.East Asia is literally dying out, Japanese fertility took another hit recenty.
>>525956223>women won>nonexistent birthrate>record highs in mental illness>position of dominance propped up by jewish majority court system literally robbing any man who fails to keep them fully arbitrarily satisfiedWho really won?
>>525960479She is unironically a "lesbian", though that can always be corrected.
>>525961777>checked and holyJust some qt, there isn't any deep lore, sometimes called "goyslop girl" because of the food truck video>I don't know who she is@serenamello
>>525960191>Videogames did not deliver the promisse of becoming the new literature or the new cinema.Vidya: active. Books/Movies: passive.Just like in macaco homosex the later will always be more popular by nature.
