I despise these people so deeply. I try not to, I know it’s uncharitable but it’s hard because the moment you give them a millimeter, they start devouring everybody else’s lives. Their argument about absolutely everything is “you are a racist.” Their brains are completely untrained because they’ve been allowed to make careers and move into mansions on the strength of their willingness to repeat that accusation with the insistence of a metronome.
“We are failing” precisely because we have allowed people like Wilfred (whoever he is) to hold us hostage. They insult and berate us while we silently seethe at best and pitifully agree with the insults at worst.

The West is failing because the men who build and maintain its infrastructure can no longer afford to live and support families there.

Hate these people. Steven Pinker is basically the poster boy for this kind of thinking. “Look, we’re all better off than ever, so whatever we’re doing must be working!” Then they throw out some cherry-picked stats to back it up. It’s the same playbook the Biden admin used when they cooked up numbers claiming prices weren’t rising.
Wilfred is an interesting case. He’s right-leaning on most things but cannot help slipping into ethnic chauvinism on certain subjects. For example, he accepts that african-americans have poor test scores but at the same time maintains that nigerian immigrants are all rocket scientists who outperform every other racial group in america (which is just not true).
He gets owned by people who really know what they’re talking about but just refuses to accept it.

It would be nice if the West was leading in the right kind of nuclear power.
