Any examples?

Consider how the west ruled the world as long as it stayed conservative, but since the 70s or so Asia began taking over. It's only an illusion that liberal societies experience more progress, in fact it's more a pointless churn from the rapid uncritical adoption and abandonment of ideas.

A conservative society goes: How about doing X? Oh no,that would be silly.

A liberal society goes: How about doing X? Yes, that's what we needed!

Did anybody say X? X!

X, X, X, X, X!

XX!

Do you remember how we all did X in ##? Yeah, what were we thinking?
