What is coming to the West, but especially to America, if not opposed forcefully and competently, will likely be just as brutal as what happened in Soviet Russia, as the regime switches into panic mode.

Corporations in America are already powerful, I have zero reason to believe why they would let a Communist uprising take root.

Remember the massive hysteria when Twitter banned Trump? Well, that was a private corporation exercising their right against the government.

If Communists held the power instead, Silicon Valley is going to riot. It's also for the same reason why Biden is in charge of the Democrats right now and not Bernie Sanders. Capitalism and Centrist politics are what most Americans are comfortable with.

Communism is just one face of godless materialism, the difference between our current system and the USSR's is much smaller than most people think. It is superficial at best. Society is in both cases geared towards achieving economic efficiency and enriching a tiny ruling class, though by different means. In both cases, tradition and nationhood are eliminated in the long run, because they are barriers to economic development. As free-market capitalism continues to transform into a neofeudalism dominated by corporations, the similarities between the soviet system and ours will become more apparent.

So, when I say that what is coming will be as brutal as what happened in Soviet Russia, I'm not talking about a communist revolution, but rather about a generalized attack on traditional institutions that still remain and are a barrier to the consolidation of power by global elites. Bolshevik tactics are not incompatible with globalism, on the contrary, they can absolutely be used to annihilate the opposition (people who refuse to give up their cultural and religious values) and the institutions that give a voice to it. In the coming decades, expect the establishment to launch an all-out assault on the state, with the goal of abolishing the checks and balances that are preventing them from enacting an outright corporate dictatorship. These attempts will probably be met with massive resistance which will in turn force the elites to escalate the situation into an all-out revolutionary assault (a revolution from above, in that case).

Neofeudalism is the correct answer, but none of the leadership will be centralized like the Bolshevik were.

Disney, Microsoft, Apple, Amazon etc are all going to be competing for power, unless they somehow manage to repeal the anti-trust laws and they all get swallowed by one large mega company.

It doesn’t matter that those companies compete, they’re united in their goal to destroy us.

Corporations are united against anyone who represents a threat to their global expansion. Even the same Bolsheviks I mentioned earlier, they don't want to secede any power to another group.
