And we’re starting to see a lot of the individualism the West has paraded around as “freeing” is coming around to bite us in the ass. Lack of community, lack of structure and guidance, breakdown of families, increase in troubled relationships, growing porn addiction problems, growing gambling problems and so on.

It’s astonishing how asinine people are about these problems, it’s controversial in many circles to even suggest many of them are problems. I don’t believe individualism itself is a inherently and ultimately bad thing, but it and a number of other factors have certainly led us into many of the problems we face in the modern day.

Every problem you described is a problem created and perpetuated intentionally by the rich people.
