https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dcAzzTIN0lc

Every advanced civilization—from Rome to the Maya, the Ming Dynasty to the Islamic Golden Age—has followed the same chilling pattern: the death of critical thinking, the rise of short-term narcissism, and the rejection of expertise.

This isn’t just history. It’s happening now.

In this video, we explore why great societies collapse not from war or economic failure, but from the celebration of ignorance. Drawing on insights from Nietzsche, Carl Sagan, Alexis de Tocqueville, and modern psychology, we reveal how civilization spirals into idiocracy—step by step.

We cover:
How empires lose the ability to think long-term
Why people reject experts and facts
The psychological traps that destroy nations
What the Maya, Rome, and modern America have in common
How YOU can break the cycle
