Some people say that there is a successor ideology. There isn't. No new value system is being born at all–– at least, not yet.
The same crisis of belief that caused the western elite to break down several generations ago has now made its way to the masses:
Maybe that depresses you, but really it is a moment of great promise. These will be the conditions out of which a real successor can emerge.
For decades, western elites have been content to protect their wealth while abdicating their civilizational responsibilities.
They relied on the centuries of tutelage their ancestors gave to the masses on how to do their part in sustaining higher civilization.
The masses, being simpler, held on longer than the elite. But now they don't believe, either–– and when no one believes, new sects will emerge.
