Agree or disagree?

This may not be a fair question to ask since you are missing the context of having read the same 161 pages of this book plus this entire chapter I just finished with this concluding paragraph.
But nonetheless...do you agree or disagree with sentiments of this paragraph?
"Throughout the rich and developed world, we are not living through a crisis of wealth or material, but a crisis of character, a crisis of virtue, a crisis of means and ends. the fundamental political schism in the twenty-first century is no longer right versus left, but the impulsive childish values of the right and left versus the compromising adolescent/adult values of both the right and left. it's no longer a debate of communism versus capitalism or freedom versus equality but, rather, of maturity versus immaturity, of means versus ends."
It is from this book:

Everything Is F*cked: A Book About Hope
I'm finding it to be an excellent book. One which constantly makes me want to read it again, so as to study it and retain more of what is in it.
Prior to reading the book I knew nothing about the author or the book and it was an impulsive less than 5 seconds of thought decision to pull it off the "new" books shelf and put it in my bag of other books likewise impulsively chosen.
