Deglobalization

Reliable information is scarce. The digital flood of armchair experts and amateur theorists might be enough encouragement to seek out the knowledge of books stored in the forgotten libraries. Sadly no digital platform is safe from the AI. While the digital age drains away many things unto the forgotten void I'm rather pleased globalization has come to the forefront. Economic globalization happened after WWii when the American navy made our oceans a little bit safer. Nearly every consumable thing on Earth traveled by sea or was manufactured in China, Google it. Current events such as the Russian War has shifted focus. Moving things has becoming difficult, the global market is splintering as available resources decline. Resources including manual labor and transferring knowledge base. In short skills shortage in the miĺlenials means no one is producing the materials required to manufacture the next series smart phone or establish sustainable food security in the age of climate change.

People scurry around by their misguided conviction to make money. This means more people are going off grid, becoming self sustainable and not giving a flying fart about the global community with its redundant acronyms and expanding divide in both society, economy and technology. 

The world is facing the first technology gap. A decline to supply means no new game consoles or smartphones so hold on to the current crap you own or find some malnourished third world migrant to repair it when it breaks, and it will inevitably break. With the closure of major franchises courtesy of miĺlenials wanting the easier digital option there is a reduced surplus of replacement parts. 

As the generation gap increases the knowledge base decreases, the miĺlenial generation may very well be the end of the human race, maybe not extinction but their inability has negative effects going forward. First world economy is restracting because of YouTube careers, alas no pension or dental. Social media piece jobs are trending on every platform but ironically those posted videos making us less not smart are useless if nobody understands or feels motivated to implement the manual labor requirements. Waiting for the day the internet ends, the digital apocalypse...

Third world majority cannot pick up the shortfall without time allotted to overhauling the entire infrastructure to make these countries operational. So we circle back to the global economy, poor countries are rich in resources but cannot process to produce. That has been the sole responsibility of China but when it fails everyone will revert back to self sustainable environments without the desire to share or like anything. Trade will return to the old ways - I have what you need, you have what I need, let's trade. 

There is more to this story but we interrupt our own broadcast with breaking news as it happens.
