      Long-run nothing can go wrong it’s a great idea. Institutions that adopt maladaptive policies will get less competitive over time and be replaced by ones that are resistant to silly bullshit

      Sadly not true, I see your libertarianism but don't share your optimism. This will simply progress all the way; not enough Oxbridge math grads, problem solved... Not enough PhDs, professors, Nobels etc. All the way to the top. Any alt. inst' will be labelled racist and shut down

      I agree the replacement process will involve total collapse of all infected institutions, and on a short timescale it will be a disaster. But in the long term it will self-correct. Alt institutions may come after the originals are totally dead

      By this time the other ethnicities noted (at least in Europe) will be minorities. See South Africa for opportunities for alt. institutions - 'affirmative action' doesn't stop, even when you're only 8% of the population.

      I'm talking about a much more total collapse. US / Western euro institutions becoming useless would have a much more dramatic impact than say SA pushing AA doctrine. If the US became a failed state with SA style racial politics (which I don't personally see happening)...

          Would be inter generational and not sudden imho as population dies naturally/is replaced (http://www.unz.com/isteve/the-worlds-most-important-graph/ …). Question is *useless* to whom, and relative to what? Crap Europe still>Angola. Once maj/min status achieved in a democracy, you have permanent AA.

          And how much of that graph is due to the functioning institutions such as pharmaceutical development etc? If western ints decide to stop functioning for an ideological project, either China will replace them, or there will be mass death as they collapse

          Re institutions stopping functioning, a good example would be Brazil. Barely functioning, vast corruption, baizuo warfare dialled up to 10 - but managing to cobble it together enough to stay afloat. HC outcomes (etc) are worse, but still vastly preferable for a Liberian.

          Yes - but Brazil isn’t integral to the world system in the way the US or the EU is. Small failed states can happen, big ones will fragment / reorganise

          Outside Europe becoming Yugoslavia (it is), then everyone agreeing - yes, that didn't work (and clearly and consciously understand why), and new 'safe spaces' being created, then perhaps. How these spaces could be created without howls of racism, etc idk.

          ... then huge parts of the world economy will just cease to function, and (unless they are replaced by East Asian ones) there will be a "full" autocorrect. Small failed states can play out but if, say, the global pharmaceutical industry collapsed then you would see "correction"
