My fear is that the West is increasingly moving towards a stagnant-- but stable-- system. It seems like the increasing in credentialism, social justice movements, and outsourcing of manufacturing to third world countries so a dwindling middle class can play financier are all signs demonstrating that the West is moving towards "a new kind of servitude which covers the surface of society with a network of complicated rules, through which the most original minds and the most energetic characters cannot penetrate", in the words of Tocqueville.

Recently I've been reading Facundo: Barberism and Civilization, and it's striking how similar the history of Argentinian Caudillos is to my home country's (Canada) tension between Imperialist Corporations (Mixed race and autocratic) and Parliamentary Democracy (Anglo-Jewish-Freemasonic elites creating complicated systems of indirect control and calling it freedom). It seems like Sarmiento's "Civilization" is just shorthand for European imperialistic control, that untimely revolves around the whims of a dozen or so Anglo-Jewish merchant banker families. "Barbarism" on the other hand, the metizo/metis/mullatto strong men who form cults of personality and rise in the world through acts of courage and brutality, seem to me the truest manifestation of ἀριστοκρατία , living breathing avatars of the Spenglarian race-ideal manifsting in history.
