RE: A critique on modern ideologies (Communism/Socialism/Capitalism)
Indeed.
My opinion is that all the current structure will fall, civilization as we know it today will fall, when the values are lost, then everything falls. Here in Venezuela people lost their values and we became excessively materialistic, that's how the government gained a lot of power, giving away material goods, and granting economic advantages to whoever was willing to follow it, later the tyranny was irrevocable, the military were loyal to the government because the government paid well, without morals, there is nothing that prevents the military from following the orders of the tyrant, and when the tyrant has absolute power, he begins to govern for him, and to stay in power, and thus the whole society it collapses.
I continue to warn that this can happen to the West, if people lose morale, if they are not governed by an ethical principle, then the situation becomes favorable for a tyranny to arise, and civilization collapses, it is enough for it to happen in the United States, in Germany or in the United Kingdom. International trade makes them very dependent on each other, in addition, in the West it happens the same as in Latin America or in the Islamic world, that is, they are a geographical area that moves together, the predominant ideas in Germany are in turn the ideas predominant in the United States, the Western countries are very interconnected today, if one of the important countries sinks, it can drag the whole West with it.
The reason why in Venezuela we have not made a leap or an evolution, is because there is an outside world to which we are connected, people can say migrate to another country as they do now, or we can survive thanks to imports, but if the West falls, the world will be very different, first tyranny will come, but later the values will resurface, a restart of the cycle.
