Genuinely curious. I keep thinking “it can’t get much worse without some kind of mass uprising” but the ability of the general population of Western states to just soak up suffering seems endless. Do you think we will actually see mass movements in the next decade or two? Or just slowly lurch into a void of ever-shittier liberalism?

By the West I mean like. Western Europe and the Anglosphere I guess.

    No of course not. The bourgeois state will continue to externalize the costs of buying off a majority of the working classes in the imperial core. Conditions will deteriorate in core adjacent nations though and those will experience revolution in our lifetime.
