As you know, censorship around the world has been ramping up at an alarming pace. The UK and OFCOM has singled out this community and have been focusing its censorship efforts here. It takes a good amount of resources to maintain the infrastructure for our community and to resist this censorship. We would appreciate any and all donations.

Is The United States Of America (U.S.A.) and most Western Countries like the United Kingdom (U.K.) on the decline?

The Future of Tomorrow?
There is one other big factor leading to the decline of America- the national debt- this is such a huge problem. China keeps buying up more and more in the u.s. due to their huge financial surplusses. The downfall of other top nations has been caused in effect by this issue- it's a huge problem. There are different possible solutions, but none will probably work because people in power mostly only care about the money they get now, not the effect on the country long term. You have huge companies, like amazon, not paying taxes due to "creative" accounting, as well as many wealthy people doing similar things to dramatically reduce their taxes. Neither party has ever come up with a realistic plan to deal with this. There will be a crisis point, still down the road, after which america will lose power and prestige in the world at an increasing rate. Republicans want to balance the budget by taking away social programs from the most poor, Democrats want to tax the rich, neither side will listen to a common sense middle ground.Yes I think Western societies are going down. There are several reasons.
One is demographics.
But the way bigger factor. Other countries are catching up. Their growth economically and in power rises way faster.
Not sure when but it is likely that in some decades China will be more powerful.
But there are some variables we don't know. Will China ever transition in the direction of democracy? If yes will there be a civil war? I mean today we are close to a recession and Russia plays a big roll in that. I don't want to imagine what happenes when we have to break up supply chains to China.
I'm not even sure the human race can avoid an all out nuclear war for two hundred more years- that seems close to a 50/50 chance to me- I think you're a lot more optimistic than I am.America will last thousands of more years in one form or another.
I have doubts about whether God i8ntervenes in the world- if he doesn't intervene to help the 20,000 people, mostly children, who starve t death every day, why would he care about this. He may care in the next life but it doesn't look like he will intervene here. You have billoionaires so selfish taht they buy $500 million yachts instead of saving so many starving people like they could with this money. God does not normally seem in intervene much here, though some stories seem to show prayer workng. I'm not saying prayer never works, maybe it does sometimes, but mst prayers don't seem to.America (blue states) are turning into Sodom and Gomorrah. God is getting pissed.
Yeah it's kind of comical how mass starvation, war, disease are all fine, but apparently homosexuality and transgender is the worst evil ever. Imagine if these Christian fundamentalists channeled all their tireless anger and energy into solving actual problems.I have doubts about whether God i8ntervenes in the world- if he doesn't intervene to help the 20,000 people, mostly children, who starve t death every day, why would he care about this.

But if they solved problems, who will they use as slaves in their mining and manufacturing operations overseas? All those kids without a job, the horror.Yeah it's kind of comical how mass starvation, war, disease are all fine, but apparently homosexuality and transgender is the worst evil ever.

Oh, I apologize if I brought some bad memoriesThat's the photo that my ex would show me all the time, he'd tell me every night for 5 years how the western world is gonna collapse and he's just waiting for it.
No worries, it was kinda interesting of an experience and I got used to it since it was a daily event lol.Oh, I apologize if I brought some bad memories
I think any form of chaos would be like one big prison, those strong enough take from those weaker and so on. What would stop that? Not that current society is grand but the idea of a world of individuals working in some unselfish way seems like a big pipe dream. Life's just a question of who's screwing you, how hard, and will they hug you afterwards.That is if it was true Chaos and there was no string pullers.
True. Even though I don't like society, law and order keep people's animalistic nature in check. They exist to control people, and people need to be controlled. If society collapsed, then it would be a free for all. The idea of a world of individuals working in some unselfish way *is* too good to be true. It'll never happen. People are greedy, selfish and self-interested by nature. There will never be a utopia. In a world with no rules, the strong *would* dominate the weak. It would be like the animal kingdom. It would be like The Purge everydayI think any form of chaos would be like one big prison, those strong enough take from those weaker and so on. What would stop that?
