Re: Generational Dynamics World View News

If Russia does indeed become our ally, I doubt it'll be until after war has already broken out. Between 1939 and 1941, the Soviets collaborated with the Nazis, planning to split Eastern Europe between them. In fact, if not for Soviet supplies, the German war machine could never have been so ...

Re: Generational Dynamics World View News

NATO's finally hit the 2% mark for their own defense. We've been griping and muttering for a long time that they weren't willing to contribute enough. Harsh as I know this sounds, I don't think they ever would have unless we cut them off from aid entirely. Which is what Trump's done, save for having ...

Re: Generational Dynamics World View News

This doesn't necessarily have to play out the way the two previous world wars did. It'd depend on the circumstances. If China launches a Pearl-Harbor style attack, then yes, we'd be out for blood with China falling into nationalistic fervor.

But look at how things are playing out in Russia right ...

Re: Generational Dynamics World View News

Despite hopes to the contrary, Putin is not going to stop so long as there's a single breath in his body. So long as he's in power, he's going to keep pushing. Russia's burned through its Soviet stockpiles, often reduced to launching attacks with motorcycles and civilian vehicles. There are few ...

Re: Generational Dynamics World View News

I've looked at Trump's 28-point peace plan. It's not perfect, but from the way people respond, you'd think it was Munich all over again. Unfortunately, he will never wake up to the kind of threat Putin poses and if he hasn't by now, he's not going to.

He merely doesn't deserve all the blame for it ...

Re: Generational Dynamics World View News

Well, we are officially in the longest shutdown in our history. I doubt it's going to end anytime soon, since many of the Democrats' main donors (wealthy, white liberals) are screaming: "Resist at all costs!" The shutdown isn't going to impact them much, so they have little to lose by keeping it ...

Re: Generational Dynamics World View News

We have rare earth metals here and can get more from Australia. China's had a monopoly primarily because they lack environmental and labor laws, so they can poison everything in sight, including their workers, without consequence.

Since the end of the Cold War, our military has been designed for ...

Re: Generational Dynamics World View News

Putin is on the path he wants to be on. He's stated countless times that he wants to rebuild the Russian Empire and it wasn't until the full-scale invasion of Ukraine that we began to take him seriously.

Trump offered him 90% of what he wanted, more than enough for Putin to claim victory. He ...

Re: Generational Dynamics World View News

Over the last couple weeks, I've been shocked at just how many people have been celebrating Charlie Kirk's assassination. These aren't political fanatics, but ordinary men and women convinced that he got what he deserved, that those who disagree should be silenced by force and murder.

The ...

Re: Generational Dynamics World View News

India's between a rock and a hard place.

They're not capable of standing up to China on their own, but so long as their strong ties to Russia continue, we're not going to fully trust them. During the Cold War, while technically non-aligned, they were far closer to the Soviet Union in practice ...
