a major risk of civilizational collapse indeed, but not for the reasons you think

look around:
now that the media's tribe is in throes and *might* collapse culturally, the best chance would be a competing tribe to carry on the torch
even before collapse, a competing tribe is good to keep the quality up & prices down. i.e., keep the messaging *honest*.

unforced error:
through pervasive propaganda, the media changed the originally multi-tribe society led by men into a mono-tribe led media. the tribe became synonymous with the state, and the state became total.
in the name of unity we gave up the idea of ever questioning.

where eagles dare:
a competing tribe still *exists*, but is culturally suppressed, suspended in deep hibernation, and would take some time to rebound. in particular to build or restore *unclogged* channels of communication...

the story so far:
the risk stems directly from there being virtually no competing tribe to the media-led one.
the angloshpere is a system connected vessels and it's been dominated by one single tribe. when that tribe catches a cold, every english speaker sneezes.

gather energy:
the way forward? remind us it is okay to have a tribe. point to successful tribes that live happily in the modern society and grow in size.
explore. restore leadership to people who *lead*.
and make english language great again :-)
