Things have been full Dionysian since WW2. Boomers have never been orderly, ironically Millenials are far more orderly than them, our sense of order is just all fucked up. We've been raised to be emotionally vitriolic and chaotic but are showing cracks of wanting a more ordered system. The generations to come will build something grande.

Neoliberals are still Dionysian, thus why they fund ANTIFA and want open borders.
Now here's what I think the next Apollonian age will look like:
1) return to Conservative Christianity
2) reformation of education from k to graduate school
3) a cleaning out of the media and government
4) a return of women to more feminine roles
5) a return of social shame
6) a sharp decline in narcotic use, obesity, STDs, bisexualism and transgenderism
7) immigration reform
8) a shift of focus in art from being disturbing, jarring and gross to aesthetic, romantic and inspiring
9) the era of white guilt comes to an end

On the unfortunate side it's going to be a while still and it might take a war to get us there. Mean while, in the interim many more good countries will fall to total collapse a la Venezuela and South Africa, and some will be even worse.

>Traditional Western art is the pinnacle--painting, music, sculpture, etc.
That definitely used to be true, and there's good argument to be made that it still is, but it won't necessarily be true for much longer. The West hasn't put out anything of real artistic value in quite a while and if that keeps up we will eventually be passed by others. We have to shake off the Jewish style obsession of the disgusting and the profane eventually, this shit is getting embarrassing.
