I think you are right it wouldn't thrive but what we can do- is take all this shit and tranform it into the fertilizer humans need to bloom once again.
This does seem to be the lifecycle of the spieces and it might just bee there as a natural way to keep our species robust and strong.
Excellent powerful warning and article , showing how Tyranny fails eventually.
All the reasons described in the article and the loss of creativity leads to economic stagnation and nothing can hold back the tides of change…Sadly we will probably have to go through these stages , before the authoritarians are brought down.
Apparently US young adults are now living at home at rates equal to those during the Great Depression. After all, why compete against illegal labor for jobs that only afford a 2BD/ 1BA crappy apartment in the low-income, crime infested zip codes, where you’d never send your kids to school? but anyway you can’t afford to reproduce? So, why bother?
And we’ve failed to reproduce at replacement rate since 1970, which means we’ve been a dying socioeconomic system since 1970. Our population growth has come from immigration, not from the indigenous US population. (Indigenous means white, black, & brown Americans, not the remnant aboriginal population or “red” man.)
Apparently the bc pill never caught on here in Japan, but as in the West it’s actually abortion to blame for low reproductive rates. Apparently Western bc pill use actually *increases* the number of unintended pregnancies, ironically, because the bc pill does have a small but significant rate of failure.
Of course, human population growth cannot continue indefinitely, but for the time being our sociopathic Ruling Class has decided to replace Western middle-class populations with economic refugees who have no cultural tradition of Western socioeconomic liberalism (e.g. the US Bill of Rights), therefore much lower expectations for human rights. That’s a win-win for the sociopathic Ruling Class, so they think …
The human spirit won't thrive under oppression, as we are seeing in China. It's happening here with disillusioned young people too. What it really comes down to is; when compliance with unnatural and destructive policy is coerced or forced, life becomes not just miserable but eventually people lose their purpose, energy and hope for the future. I think "lie flat" and "let it rot" are a mental or emotional defense springing from trauma, exhaustion and hopelessness. At one time I felt like that myself so I can empathize with the feeling. You have to have something to look forward to or the mind and body deteriorates. Communism won't address this issue, but our "democracy" needs to recognize this basic truth.

I'd rather a collapse and renewal than a 50 year totalitarian state.
After 20 years of it people begin to turn the color of ash, and hunch when they walk.
I believe we are in a techno-psychological prison system of symbolic living.
Tokenism: 'The policy of making only a perfunctory effort or symbolic gesture toward the accomplishment of a goal'.
We the Cyborgs

I think history has proven this to be correct, which is hopeful. We can be pretty evil towards each other, and yet the human spirit carries on.
