I want to pick out one of my sentences and elaborate on it.
All of this actually requires a very determined cooperation of all people, not just a part of humanity, as I see it. Here, I imagine huge problems.
I say it is a fact that people on our planet will always have a discrepancy that makes some people rush ahead and others resist. I am transferring today's efforts to equalise the human condition for all to a space age.
My most important argument is this: While on our Earth humans lagged far behind the technological deployment possibilities that others were already applying, the endeavour to make undeveloped societies equal to those already technologically advanced is always subject to a time lag. It becomes even more tricky when the once technologically more developed ones have spread their new way of life and the previously underdeveloped societies have caught up, it can happen that the former are left behind and suddenly find themselves in the same situation as the formerly Third World. And so on.
The great conflict can be observed today: While people from other parts of the world are immigrating to Europe en masse, who have previously lived a fundamentally different culture, and who also come from crisis areas where they have been reduced to survival (war, murder, manslaughter, shortages), they lack the mostly peaceful coexistence of people in the host countries.
They will or do see the locals as weak, as they do not appear to have preserved a genuine culture that is perceived as dominant. Since Europeans have given up on the concept of family and are under the illusion that all people are alike, and they believe that importing foreign cultures would be able to preserve their own, it may well be that these foreigners despise them. If only for the reason that they do not want to be abused as pawns, because it basically characterises the locals as naive racists.
It takes a small proportion of the newcomers to enforce their right to rule and to subjugate the original Europeans. Sooner or later, we will be outnumbered anyway and will die out due to our childlessness. Our geographical proximity to the African continent and the vibrant Islamic culture makes our homeland a new habitat for them. Nevertheless, they will be trapped as well and join us in our crisis. That contains some dangers, to say the least.
While Europe is in all probability heading for long-lasting crises, the East in Russia and Asia has developed out of its former backwardness and poverty. Not only that, they have overtaken the West. In my view, this has mainly happened because the Americans, but even more so the Western Europeans, have been unable to continue to innovate.
These cultures created people who prioritised the cultivation of decadence and promoted incompetence rather than competence. They are at a disadvantage compared to those who have only recently escaped difficult living conditions and have therefore not forgotten both the mentality and determination to make something out of their lives and defend themselves against enemies. Russians, just by the last three years, learned to fight a super modern war. The Russian identity will be positively pushed by that.
What is left of us Germans, for example, is hardly recruitable for both genuine science and a standing army, in my opinion.
I hope though that I am wrong and that crisis may be softened and our foreigners are going to appear more peaceful instead of hostile, and become our allies instead our enemies. But I am afraid that in order to gain respect, we have to change our policies.
