There's a conflict index which predicts conflicts based on whether the population is able to feed, house themselves, find a spouse (think cultures with multiple wives) or find a job. In short, civil war is 3 missed meals away. This is espacially dangerous with this new generation not being able to provide for children. Nothing to lose.
I mean it's a choice. I know ppl who refuse to work and collect wellfare because they'll be poor either way.
What is "the west" meaning nowadays anyway? US threatens to invade Europe and is closer to russia than NATO. They are barely allies anymore.
When they tell you no raise this year
Similar story with Tesla's Berlin factory. Musk even said look look everywhere is water hurr durr. Politicians folded like teen girl fans meeting their kpop idol. Fast forward factory operates and household's waterconsumption in the far area is rationed. Turns out you cant take just all the water you see without damaging the ecology.
here's me, wondering how they have still customers consuming their 'product'
On global level population is still growing. With globalization, companies couldnt care less if a worker is from US or Africa. ChatGPT's training was supervised by kenia workers for laughable wages.
WHO guidelines say children should stay with mother until 3 to bond and go to childcare from 3 to get social skills. But germany only pays up for like 1 yr and even that only limited. Grandparents have to work until they are barely fit enough to help too.
Makes you wonder, with all those technical advances we have, why we work more and more having worse living conditions down the drain.

You really only need to replace 10% of jobs. There are talks of replacing software devs with AI. And developing is one of the more complex tasks in office environment. Imagine 10% of the country rioting. Thats suddendly millions of people. You dont have sufficient police or prisons to handle that.
