The BBC? That's like getting your news from "Telesur!" :lol:

How does western civilization delay/postpone the "collapse"......hmmm?

Don't elect liberals/socialists/communists/'far' left-wingers to political power! That's it.

Simple.

London is no longer English. 100 years from now, Hong Kong will remain Chinese.
Skipping leg day is the equivalent of a woman having an abortion. You're ashamed of it, and it was probably unnecessary.

I usually stop reading any research if I see something like "ecology of development" nonsense or "economic stratification" as these authors wrote.
They usually hide stupidity under scientific-looking sophisticated terms.
But this subject is interesting to me, so I read on...
As I said, politically correct and facionable nonsense - ecology, inequality, most people live on $3 a day - and this dispariy presumably lead to collapse...
Idiots, societies collapse at the top, societies with huge inequality where most people live on $3 dolars a day have hundreds or at least decades of development ahead, while those who are doomed and already face decline - earn several thousands $ , quite socialist and have less inequality.
What causes collapse is transformation of the society from one where people serve common interests to one where private interests and hedonism are a priority.
It usually comes along with decrease of toughness of environment. In early stages of existence of an ethnos, a nation - life is hard, a family and big number of children is a tool to survive, the model of the society is extremely self-sustainable. But as a nation develops, life gets easier - people need family less, people live for self pleasure more than for common goal of survival - it leads to demographic decline, and immediately after the demographic pyramid turns overhead, as soon as 1 working person feeds 2 parents and 1 child instead of 0,5 parent (since he's not the only child in the family) and 2-3 children - life starts getting worse with acceleration, since values have already changed, a nation is doomed. And to make values change you need a total collapse of society with all its institutions, only then a new cycle starts.

This is my interpretation of the theory of ethnogenesis of Lev Goumilev. :)
He viewed it in different way, but he gave the methology and the direction. :)
Western scientists just pretend to be scientists.... :)

Take away leftism and the West will miraculously recover.
Kate Steinle was separated from her family permanently but leftists didn't seem to mind.

After the utter and complete refutation of all 20th century communist/socialist attempts at economics from the Chinese, the Russians, the Eastern Europeans and the Cubans, one would think that the lesson had been learned. Apparently not. It doesn't work. It will never work. And it cost the lives of well over 100 million people.
