It's a phenomena unique to "City States"
Cities and countryside are dying in their own separate ways. Dynamic of it is different. Countryside is initially dying off fast but then stabilizes. Cities are dying slower but a process is going more or less to completion and final stages of collapse may often look quite apocalyptic - fast abandonment by large numbers of people.
In technological civilization process of city collapse will get momentum once necessary materials to keep on with maintenance of tall structures are too expensive to buy in quantities required and a cliff is at the point where electric grid and plumbing system cannot be adequately serviced any more. These are obviously trivial observations
I suspect that this collapse at one point may take a spectacular turn on the West.
Survivors of Sonderkommando 1005 posing next to a bone-crushing machine at the site of the Janowska concentration camp.
A bone crushing machine? That's a new one to me. Fertilizer?
Germans were making some use of bodies of Jews killed in concentration camps.
So golden teeth were always pulled out for scrap metal, bones were crushed and remains dispersed in rivers or buried.
Hair was reclaimed to make mattresses.
There are rumors about fertilizer, soap and glycerin (and then nitroglycerin) produced from human bodies out there but there is no solid evidence for it.
There were essentially 2 types of camps:
1. Labor camps with survival rate around 50-60% - for Poles, German criminals and arrested Westerners. Essentially those of good health were usually surviving unless they have done something stupid or German guards had a bad day.
2. Extermination camps - for Jews, Gypsies and few other minor groups classified by German authorities as undesirables - with survival rate few % and those who survived did so only because Russians (Soviets) liberated them timely before Germans killed them.
It should be noted that Brits and Americans declined to bomb these camps regardless of explicit knowledge what is going on there. They were in aircraft range and bombing overnight would allow large scale escapes amid ensuing panic.

As an access to cheap energy diminishes, climate change bites and many resources are becoming scarce most of nations are facing enforced powerdown, eg crumbling, maybe with the exception of those most primitive states which have built next to nothing, so nothing to crumble is there.
Problem with West is that it crumbles in particularly ugly way - by descent to barbarism seen as much in US as in Europe.
I often ask myself why it goes that way, what white people are doing wrong?
Is there anything these Japs are doing better than we do in our countries, with the exception that there are not many migrants there?
My conclusion is that it is explicitly
WHITE MAN who have failed in his duties.
He has failed by abandoning his ethics, his values, his resolve, his quest for leadership and ability to organize.
He lost his will to face adversaries and solve problems to his satisfaction.
Average WHITE MAN became fat, useless, lazy and stupid.
He had at his disposal everything needed to navigate through this bottleneck but he wasted it.
He gave away:
1. his money to Jews,
2. his power and authority to feminists,
3. his cities to Mexicans and Muslims
4. his ass to gays.
That is what he has done and now there are consequences to face.
It does not make any difference that few % retained integrity. Not enough to have a smooth ride for society as a whole.
I agree there are many reasons for the West crumbling. But, "da Joos" are not helping the situation.
And, when I mean "da Joos", that means those who are constantly using "da Holocost" and screaming "anti-semitism" whenever they don't get their way.
I don't think Chinese or Japanese or Africans do any of that. Only a very specific group engages in that perpetual victimhood and it irritates me to no end.
These special groups are working according to following logic:
- Rabbi tell me please what to do. 5 millions of our kind got murdered in a horrible way. What shall we do?
- We can make a lot of money out of that.
- How?
- We will extort it from entire world and there are few millions of idiots in America who believe that we are Gods, so they will help.
