It's all by design. That doesn't mean we are not responsible.

Rationality, Order, Reductionism, Utility based trivialization has taken over Modern western mind. It works well in worldly affairs but keeps a heart empty.

The whole world, not just the West needs to realize that endless economic growth ain't possible in a finite world with finite resources.

I agree with Carl Jung about the cause of uneasiness. Though I ask myself is uneasiness necessarily a bad thing? Sometimes disillusionment can lead you to truth greater than tradition or even morality from spirituality or religion. Uneasiness can make you see that things you don’t understand are more profound and ought to be understood. It’s like escaping the matrix, you can’t do so unless you feel there is something wrong with what you think is true or good.

There are many issues with the West today and human society in general, but awful things have happened before the West developed. Even under “moral values” people have done awful things. How many times have humans committed atrocities against each other for the sake of religion? Things like honor killing date back to 1750 B.C, and people considered it righteous. Morality is subjective, but generally should be good. The issue lies not with the loss of morality, but a multitude, and the baseline is that we are simply human. We make mistakes, do terrible acts, and this goes since the beginning of our formation. There has been no time in history when people were truly righteous, pure of heart, and lived in utopia.

None of these politicians care about values and morals. In fact they want they exact opposite. The God they serve is not ours

It doesn't matter anymore, something significantly bigger is coming for all of us. To a town near you. Mudfloods. Reset. Do your due diligence and study all aspects, in order to understand the great mystery. Like Palpatine said.

Europe as a whole and after Columbus, caused calamities all over the globe, and its imprint is still felt today and forever; Europe even fought within itself in absurd and bloody crashes.

When has the West genuinely practiced its "morals" and "values"? It will fall like all the other hypocritical and corrupted civilizations.

If by that you mean everyone is physically unhealthy to an unprecedented degree then yes.

Yes when the moral tradition was lost, we slaughtered millions of people, come to think of it, we slaughtered millions when it was there!
