  1. fascinating

  2. imo, Turkey should have been kicked out of NATO a long time ago for their genocidal tendencies against the Kurds. Not to mention, Erdogan himself is a “president for life” soft dictator who has “disappeared” lots of political opposition and for a while was one step short of making Turkey into a Muslimist theocratic dictatorship just like Iraan and Saudi Arabia. Alas, even Saudi is an “ally” and I am just a regular joeschmoe who really has no qualification and little education on the global geopolitical game of thrones.

  3. exactly. more like a transfer. Which has also been extensively written about by economists and or other types of pundits like Zeihan. Boomer retirement and death results and is resulting in the single greatest and most extensive transfer (sons and daughters inherit it from boomer daddy) of wealth in the history of the USA, and maybe possibly in the history of mankind.

  4. agreed. bravo. Well in this particular clip, anyways.😅 Some of his other clips he does present some fear mongering information. Nevertheless, his speaking style, his presentation style, is always upbeat and cheerful. haha, even when he is talking of “dire consequences”. He says it and speaks it with a smile!😂 Which, actually, is one of the foundational tenets and rules of public speaking. Always speak with a smile. Because, speaking in English, with an intentional smile, causes the human body to spread the face’s lips apart, which, in the English language, causes a person to always speak more clearly and pronunciationally, to one’s audience. One can be understood, more easily.

  5. he’s made millions from his books and speaking engagements already. Can’t blame for trying to make more but I think I’ll patreon my local favorite fisherman youtuber instead, Mr. MDLR Fishing channel.

  6. welp. hopefully the small subculture of Japanese-neo-nationalist-royalist-monarchist-restorationists doesn’t gain power in their govt and then decide to use them against us in neo-Pearl Harbor attack scenario. Hopefully that doesn’t happen.

  8. ‘twould seem Russians are doomed. They could just, slink back into their own and not be douchebag Russians, right? peaceful Russia, eh? but nooooooooo nope! No! hahaha. Ope ope! Well anyway, what do demographically doomed countries ruled by a corrupt dictator and oligarchy do when they also happen to have tons of nuclear bombs? May it not be! I truely pray that God will spare the world from nuclear war of any sort!

  9. Zeihan: nothing to worry about Meanwhile: more interest rate rises from Powell and Fed stated by Powell himself (am pro interest rate rise, personally); Inflation at 7 percent or more continuing, continuing, continuing to squeeze squeeze squeezzzzzzzzzzzze us middle class and lower class working folks; attacks on the Bill of Rights by politicians continue and remain going unpunished by the voters for some insane reason; but but but; but but but! nothing to worry about! Yay!!!!! Zeihan! This is why I love me some Zeihan. It’s “going” to be just fine ladies and gents😅

  10. Texas won’t be able to do shit at scale if the democrats get their way and take over the state and make it into California with all the bullcrap. Of note, California has MORE oil than Texas and Oklahoma and New Mexico combined! But alas! Democrat political policies and leftist and marxist political policies destroyed or have almost destroyed all the economic opportunity

  11. sounds like Shoigu does not really care about winning, maybe. Well good, I guess…

  12. yes and also I saw the S2 Underground video where he shows the state department/pentagon press release where they specifically admitted that they knew about the balloon as soon as it crossed into US airspace over the Aleutian Islands in Alaska. A week before it was over the nuclear base in Montana. If true, I will highly suspect that US mil was of course jamming all its data transmission frequencies and electronics and cameras too. And that, is why I immediately distrusted all the propaganda on US News channels waxing gravely about yikes yikes yikes spy balloons. No. Mil was jamming its electronics from the get go. And bull crap media news as usual propagandizing and fear mongering all the poor little ole ladies who have nothing to do but watch Fox and CNN all day long and may not know nor care that US mil has had these radio-jamming-electronics-jamming technologies since almost seventy years already.

  13. stop writing woke bullshit and they’ll be fine. We the people enjoyed the REAL stories that espoused TRADITIONAL values while SIMULTANEOUSLY trickling in their marxist propaganda but still telling a good, fun, entertaining story

  14.  @kazeryu4834  yes. listen to as many different and random and varied people as possible. yes. yes. yes. Some will be experts. Some will be well intentioned but wrong. Some will be intentionally wrong and intentionally lieing and intentionally misleading. Yes! Listen to random people! Develop critical thinking skills! Form your own opinion after listening considering what sort of thing they were saying and whether not they were being genuine even if wrong, or if intentionally trying to mislead. YES. Listen to many different random individuals! Does not mean you believe them. It means that you just listen to them.

  15. what is he talking about Austrian economics? Austrian economics school of thinking is supposed to be the freeest of the free market philosophies of economics and so you just let it all fail by its own self and that’s totally on them for being bad managers and letting it get that bad. Austrian Economics: completely, completely completely free markets. Libertarian economics. The MOST capitalistic of all capitalism! A beautiful and wonderful thing. But even the godfather of Austrian Economics, Ludwig von Mises himself, understood and said that it has never actually been implemented in a totally free way, not even in America.

  16. Yo Zeihan, watch out for cougars hiking out there in the woods and mountains!

  20. who’s not aging? world population is going up, not down. But all I ever hear about is the demographic challenges of low birth rates and aging population in Germany, America, China, Japan, Russia, et cetera. But folks, lookit, total world population is going up and up and up and up and up. Somebody is having a bunch of durned babies. And good on them, I guess. Who is it?

  21. a component of the innovation aspect of capitalism is all about doing more, with less. And finding a way. And look at good ole Zeihan, being a badass capitalist writing all his books about doom and gloom all by his lonesome and taking it all the way to the bank!😆😅. hey but I am here for it!

  22. as far as I’m concerned Australia may as well leave the quad and switch over and join with China with as much tyranny as they’ve done to their own citizens what with corona quarantine internment camps and all that. Seems like their citizens didn’t mind it too much.

  23. nope definitely not

  27. i liked world war z movie. It was pretty good in my opinion. Also it did have real zombie actors in the laboratory scene when he had to go into the laboratory and dodge all the scientists that had become zombies

  28. he might be right but he didn’t talk about how the ‘millennial’ baby boom wave of the 80’s and 90’s was actually almost as big as the boomers when the boomers figured out they actually did want kids and had a bunch in the 80’s and 90’s. They used to call us “bridgers” before they called us millennials because we “bridged” the millennium from the nineties into the early 00’s, per se. But “millennials” turned out to be a much more catchy catchphrase.

  29. and he didn’t speak at the demotard convention

  30. yup

  31. that’s stupid there’s still a ton of coal fired power plants. Shouldn’t drop it from the calculations until all of them are actually fully decommissioned

  32. wtf is with the sound on this one? ugh!? terrible! Hope he fixes it.

  33. US population is a-goin’ up and up and up. Retard politicians won’t approved new generation plants or new nuclear plants, blah blah blah, all of that. And something’s gotta give. And give, it will. And maybe the population will awaken from their slumber and demand new coal, new nuclear, new wind turbines, new natural gas plants. All of it. ALL of it. We need ALL of it. Hopefully we can have a “velvet” energy revolution before shit gets real violent.

  34.  @linmal2242 also true

  35. he also stated emphatically just yesterday that Tucker Carlson does not tell the truth. And that he makes up stories. So, you gotta still take what Zeihan says with a grain of salt. Besides, it he oversimplifies. China’s not going anywhere. They did not go anywhere when the last emperors were overthrown in the early 1900s late 1800s. They continued to be Chinese. A new Chinese regime will replace the communists when Xi Winnie the Pooh’s system finally collapses. And then there will be a new Chinese golden age. In my opnion. And hopefully, they will not use their nuclear weapons on themselves or anyone else in the process

  40. 4:04; if it is an “unstable” equilibrium does that not mean that it is not, in fact, an equilibrium at all, by definition?

  41. i wonder if there will be like, a baby boom or something after the war for the Ukrainians and the Russians like America had a baby boom after wwii?

  42. i think it’s funny how some folks must insist that Hamas is not a terror group. They terrorize and enslave their own members for crying out loud

  43.  @Stevekpb that wasn’t a nazi salute but we can definitely see who you get your daily dose of propaganda from lol. r u really that blind to how hardcore of a good zionist trump is? do u not know what the abraham accords are? negotiated by trump’s orthodox jewish son in law? come onnnn man u r hilarious😂

  45. his speaking gigs must be drying up or something. he didn’t used to push a patreon. guess he needs money. no matter, i ain’t paying. I’d rather do daily wire plus so i can watch am i racist and what is a woman with Matt Walsh. 😅

  46. even if “selling books” is not the “primary reason”, fact of the matter is, you ARE trying to sell as many books as possible. And good! Good for you! Yes! Capitalism hell yah! But please, do not fein or fake humility and do not act like it is not a primary objective to sell as many books as possible when you sit down in front of your computer to start to write one. Because it is a goal to sell as many as possible. as it should be. And that is a good thing Mr Zeihan! Own it! Promote it! And always be sure to thank all the readers for their generous purchase of your book and support of your work!

  47. i really think and opine that, people are wayeee too freaked out by “AI” which IS a smart computer and machine learning BUT which is NOT actual AI! It is NOT actual AI, people! It does not pass the Turing Test!

  48.  @frequentlycynical642 oof. fail. wind is not cheaper than gas per kilowatt hour

  49. $3.00 gasoline STILL ain’t cheap! just because you are from a part of the country where is gas is $7.00 USD does not mean $3 is cheap. 😂 i lived in Midland, TX I remember 1.50 gasoline!!!!
