Is the West an Elephant on Stilts?

"In a recent speech the geopolitical analyst Peter Zeihan casually noted that Germany's energy crisis was so chronic that quote Germany will never be coming back. And it isn't just Germans who will be sitting in the coldest winter and it won't just be this winter either. The cyclical reality of history is dragging the progressive linear view of History kicking and screaming into a downwards trajectory. This on the one hand is a very dangerous period because the progressive mind will look forever more extreme and barbaric ways to defy the course of history."
