I agree and share the same sentiment about all your examples. And I would say the trajectory will get worse before it gets better. In fact, I feel collapse is likely. But this is confusion of ideas once more. Your examples have everything to do with the relentless pursuit of money. This is a separate problem, and is directly related to heart NOT intelligence. Collapse will come to all degenerate societies regardless of intellect and technological prowess.

Too much change, too much power, entirely without baked-in evolutionary heuristics for dealing with it.
