It looks to me that we have already entered neo-feudalism. Except the princes no longer care to defend their principalities from invaders, and instead of valuing their peasants for providing the wherewithal (and squeezing them for it as well), they are openly supporting the invaders while keeping the peasants quiet with handouts. Their disconnection from reality has driven them mad.

In whose interest is it that everything around us is falling apart into strife and filth and mayhem? Cui bono?

It's what happened during the Roman Republic. Big land-owners expelled local peasants and imported slaves. They got immensely rich and the Republic crashed.

That seems to be the plan, forever and ever.
