      The reason for the structure of the Russian military is that its basically a defensive organisation, they thought, planned for a defensive war where they could use the railway system as part of their logistics... The increase in manpower (+500.000) will largely be focusing of conscripts driving supply trucks. Not new tanks. Russia is still in firm control of the North Crimean Canal. The evacuation of Cherson was Probably that they wanted to play safe and make sure not to risk any collapse that could jepordise the control of this water asset.

      "He's a performer, and..." No. If you follow his lectures he is becoming increasingly smarmy. He is beginning to believe the flowery introductions. I'm sure his manner goes over well in the 408/415 and Martha's Vineyard chuckling throatily about flyover country, etc. They probably love him at the CIA even if they won't answer his questions. That doesn't mean the meat of the lecture is bad. It's from before-celebrity. Going forward I'm a little more skeptical. Ok. That's it for me.

      I read his 500 page book too. And while I am no geopolitical expert, and while I enjoy listening to him, he is kind of a cult of personality type who speaks too authoritatively about stuff he actually doesn’t know much about. What he says about china’s vax not working (NEITHER DID OURS) and he literally believes that China wasn’t exposed to covid … total nonsense I could write four pages about why he’s totally wrong about covid and China and covid … and the whole vax issue. His extreme views about the generations (boomer, gen x, millenials, zoomers) is pretty way off in many ways too.

      The worlds four largest sources, Russia Belarus, Ukraine and China are no longer able to ship or choosing to ship fertilizer or food outside their borders. Several nations have already stopped food stuff exports. I am not sure if you understand whats going on in a lot of these other nations, their governments are pushing for them to stop using fertilizer.
      But they like you dont understand just how much yields will drop if they do. Take corn, its America's staple crop. Corn that is not engineered requires about a 3 square foot print per plant. That allows it to gather enough nutrients to grow and produce. Engineer corn can be grown tighter together, some species as close as a foot. This alone will triple the yield per acre of land. But you must have fertilizer.
      Many farmers cant even plant the old varieties because they are under contract from agra corps. In the US we wont starve, we just have way to much land to do that, even without fertilizer. But that would mean we would export a lot less calories. That means other nations starve. And you add that every other nation is going to be having a lot less or even no fertilizer, lands that were once only marginal farmland go back to being non producing. And calories farmed crash. We have a word for that. Famine. And its as old as humanity.

    Peter loves him some America.
    As a fellow American, his ''the outside world is collapsing but everything's going to be just fine here at home" message gives me pause. I certainly would love to believe that notion, but it seems a little too neat and tidy for me as he presents it.

    • @doomerbloomer6160
      @doomerbloomer6160 Před rokem

      It's for propaganda reasons. Protests happened because the situation in china is shit -> government backs down on some 0 covid policies -> local authorities have more autonomy -> covid will get worse because chinese vaccine is shit and no one has natural immunity -> situation gets much worse -> CCP says "See? 0 covid is our only chance, protesters were wrong, and the central government needs to have all the authority because local gov needs our guidance. We're going back to massive lockdowns." -> even more lockdowns.
      The CCP knew 0 covid couldn't go on forever, but because things will be much worse without 0 covid, the government can say that they're always right and need to have the authority to do what needs to be done. It's all a grab for more power. the CCP can make a propaganda win even in the worst of situations.

    I graduated from law school in 2009. The entry-level job market completely collapsed, and the largest classes ever to graduate from American law schools faced a brutal job market. Most of us didn't get real jobs. Now, more than a decade on, there is a shortage of experienced attorneys to take over law practices, serve as prosecutors, and take public defender contracts, and applications to law school collapsed because would-be lawyer Millennials were living at home at 30 with poorly-paid service jobs. I went into chemical manufacturing afterwards.

    I'm a geographer by profession and I have been increasingly questioning myself because everywhere I look I see these problems in the networks, the failure of multiple nodes in a system with no in-built redundancy.
    Then I heard Peter Zeihan and I didn't feel quite so paranoid-crazy.
    The think that Peter isn't talking about - ok it isn't his thing - is that asides from all these bad timing geopolitical events from the Ukraine invasion to the growing cohort of old dependents distorting the population pyramid we have major social problems too.
    Social media, tribalism, the breakdown in trust in the authorities, critical social justice, a west that no longer believes in itself, and in UK and some of western Europe we have parallel societies thanks to the policy of multiculturalism rather than assimilation and integration, and huge migration problems that will only grow as the hunger in Africa grows.

    The USA just put billions into microchip build out. Making neon isn't hard. We have THOUSANDS of air separation units in the USA. We just don't make Neon because of the return on investment needed to produce it. If the US tossed some of that money to an air separation company we'd be glad to add on the extra parts of the plant needed to capture and purify that neon. The refining process is already well known, and we already have the first half of the process running. Neon only makes up 0.00182% of the air we breath. You have to suck in a lot of air with very large compressors to get very much(big electric bill). Nitrogen is aprox 78% oxygen is aprox 21% and argon is aprox 1% for reference. The other part of it is that the boiling point is -410. That's pretty darn cold. Liquid N2 is -320f(think terminator 2 folks). Even more electricity is needed to refrigerate it down to that cold so it can be purified. Its a problem. But one that can be fixed with $$.

    I have read all his books and watched many of his videos. I think of his thesis as 'the worst-case scenario'. If the world is going to crash, this is most likely how it will happen. But it won't happen. The reason is if the worst-case scenario is as bad as he describes, then people will see it and avert it. Leaders and everyday people are actors not just passive figures on a demographic chart. People in North Africa and the Middle East know they need to import food. Asians know they need to import oil. South Americans know they need capital. Globalization in some form will continue because everyone needs it.

    • @hotchicsf
      @hotchicsf Před rokem +12

      This is the reason why he's working this hard. His thesis is not an iron-clad prediction. He is giving us the odds of it happening (some odds are ridiculously high as to almost be inevitable) and he's hoping those who are in the position to make changes will take notice and make those changes before the odds grow so high as to be impossible to avert the disasters. Unfortunately, Ukraine and Russia was predicted by him years ago, and it could not be averted. Chinese demographics aging out of existence is also something that cannot be averted (due to their one-child policy going on for far too long). One other thing that cannot be averted at this time is fertilizer shortages. There is going to be famine in 2023 and beyond. There's not enough food for the world. He's basically stating the obvious at this point.
