Seems pretty accurate. The west is in the middle of the dependency phase. It had a quick flirtation with the bondage phase during COVID. I can't foresee the west moving in the opposite direction, towards liberty. Society has become too decadent, too soft.
Power always thinks it has a great soul, and vast views, beyond the comprehension of the weak. And that it is doing God service when it is violating all His laws.

Yep. We're headed into the Bondage phase now.
“The notion that a radical is one who hates his country is naïve and usually idiotic. He is, more likely, one who likes his country more than the rest of us, and is thus more disturbed than the rest of us when he sees it debauched. He is not a bad citizen turning to crime; he is a good citizen driven to despair.”

I think we're going from the Abundance phase to the Selfishness phase.

All empires fail eventually.
When Donald Trump said to protest “peacefully”, he meant violence.
When he told protesters to “go home”, he meant stay for an insurrection.
And when he told Brad Raffensperger to implement “whatever the correct legal remedy is”, he meant fraud.
War is peace.
Freedom is slavery.
Ignorance is strength.

We passed the selfish phase a long time ago. Dotcom bubbles, housing bubbles, etc. The selfish phase, I'm sure will continue through the following phases, though.Originally Posted by FindersKeepers

The Great Reset crowd wants us in bondage. COVID restrictions were a trial run. The coming restrictions for "climate" reasons will build on the compliance drilled into the sheeple during COVID.

I think we are more in the complacency stage.

Just curious what government restriction would have to happen for you to say? Wow! that is something that I can't live with?
I don't think that anyone can deny that the government overreached during the Covid Pandemic
