I'm wondering if our collective outlook on life affects reality. Is the west more likely to fail if we think we are hopeless bystanders watching it collapse.

Absolutely. We create our own realities and we knowingly or unknowingly consent to everything that happens to us. We are powerful creators that have forgotten our abilities, so those in power are able to manipulate us into manifesting what THEY want, instead of what benefits us. 

But our abilities to manifest are also tied to karma. A man who has mistreated every single person around him won't be able to create the life he has dreamed of, because he won't have enough 'ammo' to do so. I would argue that the West has taken more than it has given, and therefore is destined to collapse. 

Look at Spain. It colonized and genocided the new world, seemingly taking with impunity, until it got BTFO by the British empire and lost its colonies. Then we have China, which got the shit kicked out of it by foreign powers and suffered through a civil war during the 20th century, and now is poised to be the next superpower. 

Not to get all 'Whyte Man Bad' on you, but the United States and Europe were built on war, colonization, and genocide. These countries had a Golden Age, and soon they will enter a Dark Age. This is simply the ebb and flow of karma taking place on a massive scale. Souls can only take energy from others for so long before that energy must be repaid. And sometimes it must be paid in blood.

I hope you will look around you and realize the power you hold over your own life, and thus, the world. But I'm probably responding to a bot, since I've been thinking and talking about this subject all week and the glowie algorithms love to waste my time. 

OP, tell me what you want in life. And know that YOU choose whether you get it.

I have been thinking about this all week as well, just haven't been on /x/. My brothers called me out the other day for having a negative outlook on life, and it stuck. 
At first I wanted money (and I was given money). Now I want my life to have purpose. It is impossible to find purpose in the blackpilled state of mind. I think that's what you and the other anons have helped me realize. Thanks. I think I will try again

Why do you want these things? Because you want happiness. Where is happiness found, is it in acquiring money or achieving goals? You can find happiness from these things but it will be very fleeting. True happiness comes from within. When you find that happiness, then you will be able to find your true purpose
