Personally, I just remind myself the West is a fraction - not even half - of the world's population, and that even within the Imperial Core people are recognizing we need to change. I look towards BRICS with hope, and like to think it will force the West to finally change its ways. Sure, there's a lot of what ifs with that, but it helps.
