Some of the columnists are Taki are insightful and knowledgeable. The Z Man is not one of them. This guy is literally regurgitating Soviet propaganda. While the Cold War is over, Soviet fantasies seem to have 9 lives.

Some of them are insightful and knowledgeable. The writing is always good but then they just start with the Trump-hate, which is a total turnoff. Who will they back in the next presidential election? Some version of Evan McMuffin.

I note they frequently seem to be urging us all to go out and demonstrate and cause trouble for the corrupt elite. Who will then turn on us and destroy our lives. Makes good copy.

--- "This guy is literally regurgitating Soviet propaganda. "

While I don't normally read Taki, this article seems rather valid. Is your point that the author should never believed categorically? Kill a messenger, even if the message has value?

His conclusion was "The West has been in decline for a long time, but it was covered over by financial legerdemain. The free-money era concealed the great cultural looting of the West. That era is now over, and Western people will soon have to pay the price for it."

Given "Biden said there will be a 'new world order' that must be led by the United States," Are you siding with Biden in this? Or arguing that "the free money era" is not over?

Certainly the rampant inflation, which seems best explained by the Fed and ECB pursuing economic foolishness, shows itself. The article's title argues "the party's over." Are you saying it is not? Or that this view is "literally regurgitating Soviet propaganda?"

You may detest the author but I can not fault the logic. The handwriting is on the wall, writ large.
