Social media companies incite outrage to attract our attention and sell their services. This makes cancel culture the main Western political movement of the day. Cancel culture forces Western politicians to introduce more and more sanctions on other countries. We are sanctioning China (Huawei, anyone?), we are sanctioning Russia, we are looking into ways to sanction India and other Asian countries, also Africa and Southern America, who support Russia.
We are arriving at the situation when the global West, less than half of world countries by area and population, and about half by GDP, are sanctioning another half of the countries in the world.
What are sanctions? Sanctions are attempts to cut off some big population from resources necessary for sanctioned population's survival.
Cutting of half of the world economy means, that we are cutting of us, the West, from the rest of the world. We, the West, are sanctioning us. Outrage, cancel culture makes us to do it. We could not stop. Jump of inflation in the West shows that West sanctioning of the West is real.
This why we should study misery of heavily sanctioned for a long time Venezuela. Venezuela shows what is coming next in Western economy.
