Modern Chinese society cooled down when it woke up and found the CCP in control—political reasons.

One could say Japanese society’s cooling period started during the Edo period?, when militarized society entered a centuries-long peace—it stayed cooled thru nationalist & postwar years.

In the West, society is cooling because of tech.

Three societies, three different reasons, same outcome: social cooling.

Great phrase—we needed one to describe this phenomenon.
