That’s all true, but the immediate issue for the west is that it’s now largely deindustrialized and isn’t able to keep up industrially even with Russia, let alone China. This is not a problem that has any clear solution either. Building out an industrial base requires huge up front investment, it requires an education system that can produce the workers, and engineers who would build it, it needs a huge long term commitment from the government, and so on. None of these things are possible under the current political and economic system that the west champions.
I agree with everything you are saying. We are on the same page here. I am also saying that they are utterly devoted to the mode of economics that is based on exploitation and that can only go on for so long. They need a long term commitment to change that but without a complete change in mindset and mode of economics, they need conflict and that is not as successful anymore vs the Victorian era.

extremely critical support to Thatcher Reagan and Pinochet in their ongoing campaign to destroy the west
😄
It also would require giving labor a lot more power which is a major contradiction with neoliberalism
Exactly, depriving labour of power was the major drive behind the neoliberal globalism push.
