According to book I was reading. Democracy will finish once the debt will be so big that there wont be enough money to feed all parasites.

At this point authoritarian rule will come in, following chaos and anarchy - many people will die because of infights, army taking power, starvation.

Today No one sees way out of what is happening. Thats because there likely isn't.

The decline won't be single mothers, wokes and women taking everything from men. They will just take enough to destabilize economy to the point of no return.

My GUESS is, it doesnt matter which entity will go down first (ie USA, EU), fall will drag other ones, down into chaos.

While old powers will be taking care of resisting citizens, old authoritarian countries (China Russia), will be dealing with small asian countries and old democracies with weak military.

Settling in, what today are authoritarian countries, doesn't make sense, since prior value presented to this countries will evaporate and one won't be able to easily migrate if at all.

The best places to hide:

1. quite cold, where almost no one would go and one will have skills to survive. Russia but on the European side. Canada.
2. Australia with its resources,relative isolation, hot climate, time to prepare. There will be too much going on elsewhere, for everyone, to bother invading Australian beaches.

Africa, one big brawl. USA too many people to find solitude in good location. S America will flare up, but mountains and jungle were always good hideaway, but again many refugees.

Yes. Less affected. I compare 2 sides STEM and humanistics. From these two, STEM is less afected, by the nature of it.

Sure biology and what goes with it, medicine are affected. But if you look how vast biology and medicine is, its only a small chunk.

Humanistics on the other side are basically based on opinions - best guess.

In STEM again you have many more 'exact sciences' that wokes are not even aware of unless they get electrocuted.

If we talk what is most outrageous and (possibly) most dangerous, it surely is how wokes try to change a biology. Because it is an 'exact science', an inteligent mind cant even comprehend how someone can even fuck with it.

It is my guess that's why you disagree.

Freedom of speech afects everything.

As a bonus article.

Wallstreetpro com/2022/07/23/two-decades-of-alzheimers-research-was-based-on-deliberate-fraud-by-2-scientists-that-has-cost-billions-of-dollars-and-millions-of-lives/

As Science reports, it was that investigator, Vanderbilt University neuroscientist and junior professor Matthew Schrag, who tipped over the whole applecart to discover that it wasn’t just that Cassava’s drug was ineffective. There’s good evidence that for the last 16 years, almost everyone has had the wrong idea about the cause of Alzheimer’s. Because of a fraud.

:(

Bullet points

• the article you link seems to reference humanitarian sciences
• STEM faculties less affected
• Chinese are coming from country where they have already learnt to keep quiet (marksism as subject in schools)
• Chinese ppl left families behind, they might afraid to voice opinions so they don't care abot this privilege
• Chinese ppl have marksism as subject in schools, upon arrival they already get it and shut up
• Chinese students that study abroad and are sponsored by ch government, likely have colleges better researched due to Chinese espionage and access to real world data (direct links to government like in case of Ch spies recently discovered in UK)
• as a measure of education quality (STEM / non humanism) I believe that student's numers from China reflect it better then articles written by western bloggers/magazines
• Chinese student's numbers, studying abroad, require further analysis, deducing those that are doing worthless degrees, factoring in visa complications

Mercedes is a good example. We also agree on reputation lagging indicator, in different words. Yet the linked article, RATHER talks about faculties where opinions and free speech is a must. If we're talking about STEM, free speech although would be at premium, I believe is not the top priority.

And if you consider, we are talking about Chinese students... they are not concerned about free speech. They will be like a fish in a water. I was looking at learning programme at one of the top Chinese unis. They have Marxism as one of the subjects. Expect the same during primary education, or even throughout any education in China.

I have also offered, as alternative, to see where Chinese gov is sending students as these might be faculties in demand and on best unis, if we believe Chinese gov did its research, through their agents placed in Europe. We don't even need to speculate how high in structures these agents might be since they were recently discovered as advisors to UK government and having access to most if not all top people.

I ralize that Chinese students around world are given in absolute numbers, not adjusted for any other factors (and they should be, but I don't have days to analyse data), but given that liberals lie and opposide side might spread defeatism, I'd rather rely on these numbers. They should be more accurate than 'insiders' info that try to influence readers, voters etc, therefore possibly be even more skewed.
