Now, it is easy to dismiss our people in the suburbs, after all, the arrogance and lack of care of the boomer generation was one of the death knells of our civilisation, their unfettered need to consume, their lack of care for the fate of their own children and kin, they lived a life of opulence and simplicity while failing to safeguard a future for their offspring. But regardless of their faults, regardless of their ignorance, they are still our people and they will still be culled by a state they do not know is their enemy. It is easy to hate them for their failing to guard what they had but most are as ignorant as we once were before we saw the grasping tendrils of the vile parasite. Now also consider how they will spin this retraction of living standards. The current climate change angle is a perfect example of this. Eat less meat, otherwise the poor negroid in Africa will starve. Infact did you know you can eat bugs? Delicious bugs? Oh please ignore the fact those who try it often vomit as it's not a staple of a Europeans diet, you'll get used to it cattle, now eat the bugs. Now lets go a little further into the less discussed aspects. If you need an operation or doctors appointment you'll be waiting longer than a few years ago before things were diverse. Oh also you'll be retiring much later than your parents as we need the tax to pay for Shaneeqas fifth abortion as Tyrone left again. You'll also be working more hours for less pay as the wonderful and kind Middle East invaders need someone to pay for their new family home. But hey, look at that GDP "fam".

So what happens from this point. We can identify each phase easily in one form or another in each of our nations despite us each being near the start or further down it's path, what is next. The desperate grab for control. As a civilisation collapses more and more laws are put into place in order to try and silence any and all opposition while offering more distractions. This would be the often cited "bread and circuses" from the fall of Rome. Where the belly is full with something cheap and easily available and the mind is dulled by inanity and mediocrity. A fat and contented man is a weak man who will not resist. This, once more, parallels our current epoch, the parasite passing more and more draconian speech laws favouring it while offering more shiny baubles for the simple minded to lust after and chase. Have you ever witnessed a feline chasing a laser pointer? It in essense is the same thing.

Now the later stages are where it gets interesting. In most cases you'll notice a fracturing effect, especially in the case of Rome. New polities and 'warlords' arise in one form or another and try to hold onto what pockets remain after the retraction. Now when I say warlords do not go imagining some deranged biker gang tearing through Nevada or some axe wielding Nordic raiding villages, the far more likely situation will be some man of political or military rank claiming to "be a representative of the insert nation here" trying to maintain order even though there is no overall state left in the traditional sense. Thusly the cycle is complete.

There may be violence yes but you have to remember this decline is no sudden thing, it is not "Siege", there is no "one day we all start fighting", it is slow. Now there are a few ways to arrest this or rather there were. Careful use of a nations resources, building cohesive trading of manageable resources with brother nations, limiting what industry could and couldn't do. Now this may sound familiar, very familiar to the regulars frequenting this board. It sounds awfully akin to the National Socialist stance of industry does it not. A removal of unbridled finance, a management of available resources and a cohesive yet inward looking trade policy where brother nations work in tandem over financial exploitation for the betterment of their people.
