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.

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.

@@theredscourge They can only afford to pay if the food is grown. The problem is that most of the modern food stuffs that are grown are engineered for massive amounts of fertilizer. Without it yields collapse. Its one of the main reasons why so many US farmers switched to soy this year over corn. And this has happened everywhere. This isnt a regional issue because its not a farming issues, its an industrial production of fertilizer issue. Go talk to another if you dont believe me. farmer.

[@theredscourge]

@@worndown8280 given that north america and europe combined have less than a billion people, and the world has 8, I don't think what I said is unreasonable unless the world fertilizer supply is going to fall by over 80 percent. Also one of the largest producers of potash is located in Saskatchewan Canada.

[@worndown8280]

@@theredscourge Yes and that plant covers about 50 percent of all of North America needs. To spin another one up, which Canada could do, would require about 10 billion in investment and, this is the important part, another 5 years. 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.

Most of us didn't get real jobs.

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.

As a Brit, who voted for Brexit, I watch this with interest. For the last 10-15 years I have watched as our governments have allowed Chinese and Russian money come into the country and buy up ( and then dismantle) our manufacturing. A few have managed to remain here - Lotus cars look to Malaysia and that area of the world, JCB (yes, the heavy equipment, diggers etc) continue to innovate and challenge competitors. BUT we have stuck to the intellectual stuff more. I really fear for the loss of our industry and manufacturing and the absolute lack of understanding there seems to be amongst our politicians and business people about how this world situation is going to pan out.

Decision was easy: instant gratification. But in the long term, this is a trap. For young generation there is just no hope in Europe: you have in most countries no option to buy a property due to the asset bubble, you will pay more taxes for climate change policy, you will pay more taxes for growing welfare/social system needs, and the company you are working for has no chance in global competition with US or China.

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 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.

[@mgez919]

Right! I love Peters analysis, but information travels at the speed of light to all corners of the earth now, so people and organizations can act much quicker with more information then ever before in world history.

[@hotchicsf]

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.

Poor Peter, wrong yet again. At 1:10:37 he shows natural gas price charts. Dutch ttf is sky high in Aug 2022. His comment: "it takes three years to get to normal". Well, it was back to normal in Dec. 2022, 4 months, not 3 years, in the middle of winter no less.

This man is like the used car salesman of geopolitics, very eager to appear intelligent about everything in the world so as to convince you to become confident to buy; however, when appearing more deeply under the hood, the grand statements give way to a leaky mess of snake oil. The hotchpotch of ideas he strings together, not even to speak of the hubristic confidence he has in them, is just one among many reasons why this car needs a mechanic very soon.

[@OldSolidSnake]

51:07... I'm a Millennial ('85), and my dad, a Boomer ('55), and I have to disagree with your assessment about us Millenials, and how Boomers raised us. I can only account for the majority of the kids that grew up in rural towns or in the country. We got our asses handed to us, always respectful, are hard workers, and would rather work for what we have than have anything handed to us. I believe you're thinking of ones that were raised in cities, specifically liberal cities. Rural and country people are very similar to people that were living in the early 20th century, or how I've experienced and have been told the same as how I've been raised... I believe it depends on where someone has been born and raised...

[@bpoole99251]

Same. Being raised out in the sticks gives you a since of self reliance and freedom which people who live in the cities and suburbs have no concept of. When something breaks they just call a guy or go buy another whatever. I don't think the cities ever had it in any real capacity (freedom), with more people in close proximity more laws are necessary and with more laws comes less freedom. The suburbs used to but have long since gone the way of urbanization, which is why they are for the majority voting Democrat by 30 plus points or so.

Although you are very knowledgeable, your world viewpoint is still USA grounded. I have to say you are probably right about 78% of most of your points and world view.

His world view is USA grounded because the US has the world's largest economy and also has all the materials it needs to increase economic output and a population to do it.

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 $$.

[@paolo3349]

Zeihan makes a lot of shocking assertions for which he offers no proof. No proof to support the statement that over 1 million Uke civilians were sent to Siberia, no proof that there has been 100K Russian military deaths. In fact, what proof there is sets the estimated deaths at 10% of that. What he says about the Crimean sluice gate is also wrong. UA shut that gate for 8 years, trying to cause a drought and famine. That was one of the reasons for the SMO. That gate is located in Kalanchak, firmly in Russian hands. All this may seem minor, but if he is inaccurate about these things where does it stop?
