\u201cDo you know what time it is?<\/strong><\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n

Over the past few months, this meme has gained popularity in the US, particularly among Republican circles that decry the continuous erosion of the Western middle class\u2019s standard of living, the decline of traditional values, and the rise of insecurity and chaos.<\/p>\n

An allusion to the\u00a0Doomsday Clock<\/strong>, which ticks away online, second by second, counting down the minutes until the end of times.<\/p>\n

Originally created during the height of the nuclear threat, the clock’s hands have moved back and forth depending on geopolitical tensions. Today, we are supposedly just 90 seconds away from midnight…<\/p>\n

An anxiety-inducing rhetoric, heavily criticized by Democratic circles, who, in turn, promote an equally alarming narrative: democracy is in peril, Russia is at our doorstep, and climate catastrophe looms.<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s face it: Ukraine, Gaza, climate change… We are witnessing a growing polarization of opinions on the political stage.<\/h2>\n

We are no longer engaged in debate but driven by emotion. It\u2019s been a long time since Fukuyama\u2019s proponents held any illusions about the \u201cend of history.<\/em>\u201d The fire smolders beneath the ice. Globalists, populists, ecologists, transhumanists \u2013 each is pushing their agenda or seeking comfort in outdated paradigms that no longer work.<\/p>\n

All around us, economic, societal, political, and technological upheavals are multiplying. The dollar is at risk of being dethroned. The BRICS nations are shaking up old alliances. Artificial intelligence is having its \u201cOppenheimer moment\u201d<\/em>\u00a0and could redefine the very notion of humanity.<\/p>\n

Many are looking for a map. But traditional landmarks are outdated.<\/p>\n

The statistics are staggering. At the heart of the Western hegemon,\u00a059% of Americans are pessimistic about their future and that of their children. 39% believe the end times are near.<\/strong>\u00a0The wildest theories circulate about how \u201cThe End Of The World As We Know It\u201d (TEOTWAWKI) might unfold.<\/p>\n

The syndrome of a decadent society, in the West, losing faith in its future? Probably. Times of transition have always been conducive to millenarian fears.<\/p>\n

But\u00a0we must acknowledge that the risks are real:<\/strong><\/p>\n
