Not only did France and Germany both fail to take over the civilized world at their heights, but they are now failing the test of not allowing the uncivilized world to consume them instead. The European story is truly one of the most self-destructive, self-deprecating of all. The great mental trick enacted upon the Western mind is that they have made these people allergic to not knowing - if you haven't picked a side - you are in chaos. When I talk to people from Belgium, Germany, Portugal, France, Spain, etc - it's all the same blind conformism. You can see this conformism manifest on the face as well, very clearly. A flat face is generally a sign of conformism - not wanting to stand out, shunning true self expression. A lot of these Europeans are now being born with flatter, wider faces because of this pattern. The most conformist human beings, those willing to blindly follow authority and the powerful elite (status quo) - are Asians, Chinese, Korean, Japanese, etc. A flat face generally implies that self-expression and individuality is not prioritized, uniformity takes the main stage. A strong example of a flat (conformist/uniform) face is Daniel Dae-Kim. In the series - Lost, ironically, he plays a character that struggles under the yoke of his own conformism to tradition & family hierarchies, eventually getting sucked into a life of crime and violence. ![[IMG_3749.jpeg]] People with these features are your "executioners" and "I'm just following orders" types. "I don't make the rules, I just follow them." I call this the Enforcer archetype. This is your perfect worker ant that will not question directives from a place of self-preservation.
