    I expect that ramping up the war industry is going to lead to mass austerity, and most western economies are already heading into recessions. This will keep fuelling public discontent and will likely translate into increasing civil unrest across western countries. We’re already seeing that happening in France, and similar kind of stuff is likely to start happening all across Europe before long. We’re also seeing public backlash building against the war and the politicians who have been championing it.

    I think it’s highly likely that western public will rebel against these policies before long. The west was doing well economically during the Cold War, and that’s what produced mass support for the policies western governments pursued during that time. This time around people are seeing their material conditions deteriorating, and this leads to collapse of faith in the system.
