  1. What happened in Afghanistan tells you something about the world. Tucker Carlson pointed this out. When the American military ran Kabul, the capital, at the local university they had degrees in feminism. After the disastrous Biden pullout, the Taliban took over, the feminist courses were cancelled. To me, feminism makes perfect sense under the following conditions: You live in the first world, preferably in the United States, preferably in a very left wing state like California, preferably in a very, very liberal progressive city like San Francisco, preferably in one of the mostly white, well educated, very high income, very high education level, upper class neighborhoods, where all the girls grow up knowing they will get university degrees, be a doctor or a lawyer. But that's only less than 1% of America. On a global stage, that's about .0000001% of the world. And that's where our next President might come from. The trouble with that, on a global level, even an American level, is that most of the world doesn't follow the peculiar cultural pattern of rich liberals like Nancy Pelosi. Yet those people might attain global power & influence. The world is diverse. Diversity is our strength, but not a thing that brings us together. What we were doing in Afghanistan was protecting women's right to vote. That's something that evolved out of Western Judeao-Christian culture, but only for a recent brief time and only in very tiny pockets of, that culture. So we were taking our own cultural patterns, thousands of years in the making. Then we were jamming down the countries we invaded. We are cultural imperialists. Especially feminists. They wished to use the American military to forcibly get Islamic cultures to embrace Western values. That didn't turn out too well, I recall. A President Harris would be more of the same: sending young men & women to die for global American dominance & feminism. No thank you.

  2.  @harrisonbergeron4372  1-Musk is putting up satellites everywhere, so anyone on any point of the earth can get an internet signal. Who will rule the future? China is putting up The Silk Road, to help other countries, give China more dominance. Other countries are quickly catching up to our technology. Why did we lose and run away, in Afghanistan? My guess: It makes no sense. Why did we lose? America has the most sophisticated army in the world. That's our side. But: On the other side in Afghanistan were a 5th Century goat herding Muslim culture, culturally where Europe was, a couple thousand years ago. The goat herders won, the technical people lost. Us. They won, they beat us using 70 year old Russian rifles. Why? My guess is, once technological sophistication reaches the level of rifles, differences in military power as it scale up for us, will mean a lot less than we thought, as an advantage. Basically, men on donkeys beat use, with antique rifles. We can't dominate the way we did. Not possible. We'll lose. They are catching up. Rifles and a strong heart is all it takes to beat a superpower. America should control outer space, the Silk Road internet instead. Why? Dominance is easier to win without violence. Cheaper than invading, more effective: Give 1 laptop per child, online learning, to all Muslim countries, societies will evolve themselves. Then they can connect with the world in ideas and trade, get rich. They'll deal with the Mullahs. No need to invade. And a lot cheaper to give free education. Books not bombs. Computers, not carnage. I prefer Prime Directive from Star Trek. I read Winston Churchill's book series A History of the English Speaking Peoples. He said it took England 800 years to evolve from absolute rule of kings, to ordinary Brits getting the vote. We're rushing them. With violence. Things grow best, naturally, with minimal prodding at their own pace. 3-Yeah, I agree. But I read the book The Ugly American. We usually get much more of that wrong, than right. Things in life tend to turn out a lot more complicated, than we first thought. We understand far less about other cultures, than we think we do. Another reason to have minimal interference. Your list of alternatives to Tucker are very solid. Thanks for interesting post.
