Well, It seems that I am a fan of making predictions about the future. Both in the societal and political context. So I am going to ask you all about something.

It seems that left-wing students have adopted an almost authoritarian attitude towards other students whose views do not correspond to their own. We are seeing the growth of echo-chambers everywhere. Some universities, in the UK and other countries, have allowed the creation of ideological "safe-spaces". There is also a great marginalization of persons with political views deemed "unmodern" and "incorrect". Of course I do not belong to the alt-right, but now many social liberals and socialists are deeming thinkers such as Jordan Peterson as "far-right". Look at the recent events in New Zealand, and you will see that I am not rambling conspiracy theories here.

As a result of this pluralism of ideological viewpoints being shattered, many have flocked to their own echo-chambers as well. As the rhetoric is getting more aggressive from the Left, the more the Right will strike back. I have observed that far-right echo-chambers have seduced a huge chunk of people into its abyss, mainly young men, whom they feel that everybody in this world have rejected them. I could write more about incels being the result of a harsh market-competition as a result of the Sexual Revolution. But this post will not be dedicated to that. Back to the post, we can already see that far-right echo-chambers are experiencing a huge influx of supporters. As the echo-chambers will inflate, so will the resistance. The progressive Left will try to issue more restrictions and end up looking like autocrats to many people.

After all, millennial socialism is not alone:
https://www.europenowjournal.org/2018/0 ... he-future/

At last, my question will be:

Will there eventually be a huge conflict between far-right authoritarians and progressive socialists in the future?

The thread "Is Fascism Inevitable?" got me thinking a bit. Of course my generation is not prone to far-right seduction. But I think the future will bring many events (mostly climate change, which will have social implications as well) which will cause my next generations to doubt democracy.

Probably. Polarization is reaching serious levels, and we've seen greatly increased direct street fighting as of late; things seemed to have cooled a bit in the last year, but various events, such as the aforementioned New Zealand, show the currents remain there. Demographics also portend this.

The sexual revolution contributed to it, but incels existed well-before it and the prototypical idea is the result of the social isolation and breakdown of community ties in the industrial revolution.

I think climate change denialists are corporate shills; some of them know what they are doing, but many of them just seem to be brainwashed.

I would say downfall of arranged marriages was an effect rather than a cause, and was only symptom of the breakdown of local social networks that created the arranged marriage.

I disagree - arranged marriage in the West began falling apart before industrialization and mobile labor pools broke down local social networks; and furthermore, persisted in many non-Western countries which suffered those selfsame problems.

Mostly innocent?

Yeah, they sure are not dangerous. But some have taken their convictions into reality:

May I also remind you that the decline of arranged marriages are the result of promiscuity's widespread popularity?

Perhaps, but even so, the incel/love shy/ whatever you want to call it phenomenon still didn't exist quite yet, it wasn't until later that it begins to really take form and become a serious social ill.

The Incel community and the phenomenon of individuals without the confidence to enter the sexual market are separate.

Tell me more about arranged marriages in the 1950s, or sexual promiscuity in the 18th century. I Am Very Interested.

How can that be? Arranged marriage fell out of style long before promiscuity became the norm.

To be fair this would include shooting teenagers conscripted at the very end, as well as members of units such as Wiking which had generally clean records.

It only didn't exist as a community, or a mindset - the percentage of individuals who never married in previous eras of the modern age was, in some cases, greater than modern estimates of those who have never been in a committed relationship.

Yes, but it wasn't considered not normal to never marry back in those days, and, in some cases, it was encouraged, such as monastics, clergy, etc.

Press X to doubt. Outside of particular circumstances, like monastics, individuals in the 19th century Anglosphere were very much expected to marry, and doubly so for women.

Well, I was just on a site that was predominantly right wing and some were saying that it was fake and made up by the globalists for some reason. One said they did it to make money.
Then again, two of then were fascist and the aforementioned individual was one of the those two, and to my knowledge facists aren't too fond of capitalism.


BTW, wouldn't it be more profitable to deny climate change as fossil rules are more profitable. I don't know, maybe those "globalists" realized that fossil fuels are finite.

Yugoslavia's back baby...

How the hell did this happen?
Well...we don't actually know. Just sort of happened one day.
Is it a reunited Yugoslavia in the 21st century? Is a rebel colony world in the far future? Is it a race of cyborg neo-life at war with any assimilating organisms they come across in the far far future? Who knows, who cares?
New Yugoslavia just is.

I didn't mean the 19th century. The incel phenomenon existed by then and was widely discussed in literature. Some of Dostoevsky's major books revolve around such persons.

But in Dostoevsky's era and region, local ties were still very strong in comparison to other modern countries?
