Please post historical examples of rampant degeneracy, I finally want to understand this neoliberal world we live in and why am I not crazy for thinking it's absurd

"Industrial society and its future" by Theodore Kaczynsky
(see also "Technological slavery" and "Antitech revolution"):
Good critique of modernity from a sociological pov, and also of the system as such and leftism (as in "wokeness"). Good for raising questions, less good at providing solutions
-
"Modernity And Cultural Decline" by Sarraf, Woodley of Menie & Feltham:
A bit complicated and technical at times (and also depressing) as it argues that there is a genetic/biological basis of/influence on civilization (or rather traits required for civilization) and that the frequency of these traits are declining while 'anti-social' traits are increasing (see also "The rythm of the West by the same authors)
-
"Civilized Man's Eight Deadly Sins" by Konrad Lorenz
Published in 1974 and more of a "debate post" it's intriguing to know that the same concerns present in the early 70's are still around.
-
"From Under the Rubble" by Solzhenitsyn, Shafarevich et al.
Doesn't really explain neoliberalism per se, but it is intriguing to read their critique of the West and suggestions for the future of Soviet-Russia (mainly a nationalist/Orthodox reawakening). Shafarevich's contributions, especially on socialism, caught my interest (socialism strives towards the destruction of religion, family and nation (in addition to private property): how fares family, religion and nation in today's (neo)liberal world?) (It's an anthology, so it doesn't delves too deep into any single topic)
-
"Cynical theories" by Pluckrose & Lindsay
tries to explain where the "woke" theories (SJW-theory) came from and what they are/want. Easy to read (but I'm sure philosophy-nerds will object that it's over-simplistic)
-
Also if you haven't watched it already (and want to get more paranoid) Yuri Bezmenov's lectures on subversion is definitely worth a watch ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y9TviIuXPSE)
Not sure if this helps, I hope others can expand the list (with perhaps more relevant suggestions :^)

Ernst Jünger in general is also interesting ("Storm of Steel" might be off-topic completely but really good nonetheless) and Dostoyevsky (especially "Demons") is good if you want a moral case against the 'modern ideologies/ideas' and pro tradition.
Can also suggest Pentti Linkola (I believe the only book translated to English is "Can Life Prevail?" ) if you want a Finnish version of Kaczynsky (though Likola's perspective is primarily a Finnish one and it's not as 'academic')
Finally if you want some comfy "living in the woods is kinda neat" books "Growth of the Soil" by Knut Hamsun and "Walden" by Henry David Thoreau are good, though the former one is fiction

Posted before and I still have no clue what ethnic conflict there was in Weimar Germany.
