The Western world, in particular the US, has created a world order that is exclusionary, exploitative, inhumane and non self aware through dogmatic adherence to "logic and reason" culminating in social Darwinism. Now, we're supposed to be shocked Pikachu face when the consequences of those choices come to fruition?

Fascism was always at the core of Western philosophy. The idea that we have civilized and uncivilized peoples gave us the destruction of the colonial period. Even up until just recently, though immigrants were welcomed in many Western countries, it was assumed they would take on less desirable roles in society, settling into the position of a perpetual underclass. Suppressed by stereotypes, discrimination and lack of access to meaningful representation.

For us, as a people, to move forward into a world that is truly egalitarian and environmentally sustainable, foundational changes will need to be made. Otherwise those chickens are coming home to roost and, if its not in the form of global geopolitical unrest, then it will be the climate.

So we have a world order, spearheaded by Western nations, that is slowly setting the world on fire, in one way or another. What do we do about it?
