For the West it ultimately comes down to two problems. The young are not breeding like rabbits and the old are not dying like flies, so you have the boomer generation sliding along like a pig through the demographic python.
As peak oil leads to the collapse of industrial civilization the influx of foreigners to Europe will stop. Given the past predations upon the natives by the foreigners, I suspect the natives will reorganize along ethnic tribal lines once the current decadent elite lose control. It will be a long bitter reconquista, but they have driven out the Ottomans and Ummayads before. Even if Europe is overwhelmed before the fuels give out, with luck, the Russians will survive as a bastion of White Christiandom, and wage the fight for survival from the East. What a great humiliation it would be if the children of Rome and Britain were forced to languish under some caliphate. Death would be preferable.
By then the Eurabians, Eurafricans, Eurosiberians, etc will be the ‘natives’ since they will have occupied the empty Western peninsula of Afro-Eurasia that had become so due to the onset of Peak Oil, the collapse of the AMOC & other key events… so in that sense there will be a new ethnogenesis & a new people inhabiting the ruins of said deindustrial world… but it won’t be ‘the West’ or ‘Europeans’ who by then will have gone Extinct from the crises in energy, ecology, etc.
I could make the argument that the Axial revolution post the Bronze Age collapse is the 'most important thing ever'... but the Ancient Greeks are dead, as are the Ancient Indians, the Ancient Persians, etc.
Europe will die as well, as will 'The Enlightenment' & as will Industrial society... all of these things have finite lifecycles & their Perishing is inevitable.
Fair enough. I am middle aged and won't live to see what happens in any event. Im grateful for that. Although Islamic culture surely has its merits, I would be miserable living under it. Living in North America, my descendants will have a different cultural reality. Probably Catholic and Anglo/Hispanic. I think it will be tolerable.
Those are not the causes of 'inevitable decline,' they are symptoms of the problem: Namely the mismanagement & improper usage of resources.
I do not believe 'Robots will be saving the day'... some people do, I simply point out that they are wrong (read the Footnotes to understand why).
I also do not believe that there will be a 'domination by Arabs & Africans,' but rather that said groups will simply 'win out' given the raw numbers & whatnot.
There will be a Thousand Year Dark Age... but it will have more to do with the exhaustion of high quality materials, energy, etc, than it does 'lack of IQ' & other made up silliness that people in the so-called 'first world' cope with & believe in.
You're simply wrong re: food & medicine, as many of the so-called 'third world' nations actually are net exporters of these things. Western nations who are deindustrializing rapidly... are meanwhile losing the ability to even produce these things.
Anyhow: Actually read the essay properly (with footnotes) rather than making nonsensical claims about what I did not say. Also, refrain from making accusations about what I am trying to communicate... I have zero patience for such silliness.

The young are not breeding like rabbits in many places other than Africa. And even there, the TFR is dropping.
Europe has stabilized a bit, but the birthrates are still way too low. It's East Asia that's struggling the most now.
Cultural suicide is the product of liberalism and self loathing.
‘Demography is Destiny!’ is not a mere slogan but a brute reality.
In this essay, Yours Truly discusses what brute reality means for the European Peninsula in the coming decades and centuries.

Lets hope you are wrong. The enlightenment was mankind's greatest achievement. If the West falls, the enlightenment goes with it.
Nothing lasts forever.
