The West is the power center of neoliberalism. It's where the rulers live. So as such, even as the elites powers dwindle, it will remain relatively calm unless drastic things happen. Already the pandemic is shaking things quite a bit, and the elites themselves in the US at least are quite fractured. So eventually when their ability to manufacture consent and enforce their power dwindles the conditions in the west would be more conductive to a widespread leftist resurgence.
