The West is in a death spiral. Unable to sustain demographic, military and economic dominance over the rest of the world, the West has resorted to beef up its population with the help of Asians and Africans. A massive push to bring millions of Asians and Africans is underway in many Western nations.

Although it is a temporary fix to economic, ageing population and military challenges, it comes with many costs to the West. The most pressing is its impact on climate change. Carbon emissions are set to rise exponentially in the West as their population increases rapidly.

The West is engaged in over-population while preaching depopulation to the rest of the world! The West is worsening climate change while preaching to contain it to the rest.

The adage, do as they do, not as they say” is again proven correct.

At the same time, the demographics of the West keep changing with Asianization. Asian communities have a higher population growth rate than their existing majority communities. Added to this, people of African origin are also on the rise in Europe.

Within a generation’s time Asians and Africans will outnumber the current majority populations in the US, Canada, the UK and New Zealand. Australia, France and a few European countries will come close. Norway, Sweden, Denmark and Finland will also see major demographic changes as they have a very small population, very low population growth rates and generous welfare economies.

What is even more pertinent is the Asian domination of their economy, way above their population percentage, in the next couple of decades to come.

All these countries are set to continue as democracies to the foreseeable future which means Asian and African origin people there will be the kingmakers at elections. National policy will change. National values will change. Instead of Western policies of selling and imposing democracy down the throats of other nations, Western policy will change to accommodate other forms of governance and work with them. Instead of trying to dominate the world militarily, the West will give military spending a low priority in favour of more spending in education, healthcare, aged care, donations to Asian and African countries, technology, local investments and peace building.

Diversity will also lead to ethnic and religious intolerance, riots and violence in Western nations. It must be noted that all Western nations achieved developed status either through the genocide and suppression of minorities or by remaining mono-ethnic nations. Diversity was accepted only after they achieved developed status and that too was carefully planned and managed until recently. The Western economic model has not worked without these brutal initiatives. Russia is also set to suffer the same fate as it has a declining population and increasing diversity.

The West remains threatening only until these changes take effect within the next two to three decades. As astronomy has it, a dying star emits most light just before its death. The West is reaching all corners of the world for military domination ahead of its eventual decline from within.

Nations of the global south must not rush to join wars of the West (and the East) and hold their ground for another quarter of a century when the West will collapse internally and be seen as a friend than a foe, driven by dominant Asian and African values. The Old World is set to conquer the New World silently but firmly.
