As the material conditions degrade for Europeans, it will be interesting to see how much an aesthetic politics buttressed with media (propaganda) assets can cope. Lots of lifestyles being diminished. A mad scramble to maintain social positions. How will politics react?

My guess is reactively. More narrative control as reality, etc.

Oh well, guess we'd all better bow down to Putin and give him what he wants then.

Hmmmm, let's see...fifty or sixty years of giving the House of Saud whatever THEY wanted and we got rewarded with fifteen Saudi nationals flying aircraft into two of the most important buildings in New York City and triggering a wave of terror as they financially and materially backed EVER INCREASING amounts of terrorism across the globe and all over the Middle East.

Sure, let's repeat that process with Putin! Maybe he will be a nice guy and let Eastern Europe and Germany continue to exist. Hmmm, that's not what happened in 1961, was it?
