** Comanche, Shawnee, Sioux those "Indian" wars and the settlers out on the fringes (the borderlands) were terrified, armed and on edge. *
The Native Ameicans were 'warlike' , were 'brutal' ( because their lives were DIFFICULT ) and they were very "tribal' .... so the Settlers and the Pioneers had to learn how to cope with that & fast !
... as for "Bad White, Good Injun", that's just a recent myth !
... sadly, after couple hundred years the Americans have become 'soft' , and that is why today it is difficult to DEFINE what is an "American" ... and it is reflected in the recent 'tribal' ELECTIONS ( since 2000) , at ht emoment TWO TRibes only ... 🙂
**But Americans (still, for now ) DO things.**
... first they do everything wrong, stupid, etc. ... and then they FINALLY we do it RIGHT, and FAST !

@firasbouhamdan9917 (I am not as smart as Zeihan ... :-) )
but DUH! - everyone knows that Putin would 'settle' this in a N.Y. minute ( however not to 1991 borders ... ) - IF Russia got the assurances from NATO that UKRaine will NOT become a part of NATO 🙂
Since that's NOT forthcoming, we can watch this mess for another few more years ..
( USA is testing new weaponry and military tactics, UKR Mafia around Zelenkij is getting RICH form the BILLIONS the U.S.A . is sending him to keep fighting, Putin has nothing to lose, Russia's 'war economy' is booming, and the HIGH OIL prices give Putin Very High Oil/Gas Profits ... so what's not to like for all ? ...
Oh, wait, wait, don't tell me, thousands of Ukies ( and Russians ) are DYING, well that's just TOO BAD - war is biatch ! 😞

@ALFarrell-kv6ok so why would you ( and/or Empire of America) be against the 'Western/Judeo/Christian civilization' ? - including USA, Western Hemisphere, Israel, Europe, Eastern Europe, Russia, Ukraine, even South America, Australia, etc ... GETTING TOGETHER
VERSUS the crazy Islamic World of Iran, and the Islam of Iraq, unstable Islamic Middle East Area ?
rather than NATO/USA/EU trying to DESTROY Russia/Putin ( small economic pygmy ) ... which just pushes the Russian to CHINA Orbit and Mullahs' IRAN partnership ?

**They didn't vote for Trump, they voted to change a system that doesn't work for them any more. **
American Voters 'smelled the rat" when Kamala was calling for BIGGER ( wastefull) Federal Bureaucracy, Bigger National Debt, Bigger Spending on wastefull Federal Bureaucracy and the FREE 'hand-out' 😞
... while Trump called for LESS FED TAXES ( ie smaller Federal wssteful GOvernment) , less BUREAUCRACY and STUPID anti-business RULES and REGULATIONS ( which are making the American Business less COMPETITVE, and hurt the workers ! ) - and most of all to PROMOTE the STRONG America, in OIL/Gas sef-sufficiency , import less 'cheap crap' form China ( tarriffs) , and STRONG Military, so Iran, Putin, and China CANNOT 'screw' around with us ... 🙂
_______________________________________
**That is what Zeihan, myself and many others failed to realize.** YEP, that is a classic 'disconnect' of the Lefty Elites from the WORKING BLOKE ... 🙂

Zeihan knows that The Libturds took over the Higher Education in the last 30 yeras !
- and the American Public Universities hugely RAISED the Tuition Fees ! , and SCREWED the Students!
* tuition/board between 1990-2000 increased $5,000-$8,000 by 60%(!) ( while Per capita income: ncrease from $19,641 to $30,640, )
- 2000-2010 huge increase $8,000-$16,000 by 100% ( Per capita income: form $30,640 to $40,518, less than 30% ) , and between 2010 to 2002 increase $16,000-$21,000 - 31% (while per capita income: from $40,518 to $53,697)
- and while Professors, Lecturers and Academia Admins has INCREASED their salaries by 200% ! !! ... and The Students WERE SCREWED !!!!
.... and so American Liberal Academia SUCKED-IN ( forced) the Students to BORROW ten- and hundred of thousands dollars (!) and come out with 99% USELESS Liberal Arts DEGREES!
PLUS the percentage of American Adults with a bachelor's degree: increased between 1990 and 2020 from 21.3% to 34.2% .... and the INCREASE is primarily in 90% useless Liberal Arts Degrees ( many in Black History, LGBT Struggle History, Social Scince, etc) - those degrees which are USELESS in the High-Tech Economy ... and so many Students were 'snookered" to BORROW Trillions just to be 'unemployable ! )
While the American Academia became the PROPAGANDA Machine for the Marxist-Communist and "Hate America" Ideology ...
THIS CANNOT END WELL FOR ANYONE ! :-(

@JB-qt3wo YOU ARE FULL OF CRAP - min. wage: $1.45 in February 1970, and $1.60 in February 1971 LATER: minimum wage increased to $2.00 an hour in 1974, $2.10 in 1975, and $2.30 in 1976 .....
OK, OK so you cold buy TWO & HALF Macs in 1970 ( Big Mac was $0.65 in 1970) ;
and today you can buy FOUR Macs (min wage in CA is $20.00 ) ...... ( so the Mac is STILL 50% CHEAPER ! PERIOD ! )
SO WHY ALL THE WHINING ! LOL !
______________________________________________
( of course the Millenials are now screwed by Joe Biden, since the gas Prices are TWICE as High as need to be, or were while Trump was the POTUS, before The Biden Admin, and NATO started the war agaist Putin and OIL prices DOUBLED ! - LOL ! )
(( and sadly, the Millennials have been hit by a very High Home prices ( on account of super GREEDY Cities, which resulted the minimum home construction in the last two decades ! ) - and also thr HIGH INTEREST RATES ( created by HUGE Fed Govt spending ! ) - and also HIGH CAR PRICES - because of the COLLUSION between the Corporate Auto Manufacturers and the IDIOT Greens ... LOL ! ))

Bobby, Peter received the FAX from D.C. Politbureau ... and since he been 'bought & paid for" by the DEEP STATE (i.e. Vax, anti-Trump, GW, , anti-Musk, anti-Putin, etc ) and so he dutifully, word for word , put it out in the Media Ether ( obviously 'not his words', he is much more eloquent ! ) and so his little arseh0le is now puckering with very careful SELF-SENSORSHIP ! ... GOOD RIDDANCE, PETER !

@ArnoldoCanalesRojas The Romans ( and their Western Roman Empire civilization) got overrun by more WAR-LIKE Barbarian Tribes - in spite of Roman Legion Military Technology, when the Romans become to morally corrupt, too complacent and too 'soft' - EVEN by the less-advanced, but more MILITARY BRUTAL BARBARIANS ( Germans, Huns, Ostrogoths, Visigoths, Vandals, Suebes, etc. ), who didn't follow any PC rules :-)...
Perhaps the United States need to LEARN ? 🙂
(of course it took over 200 years for the (Eastern) Roman Empire to fully fall apart in 476, and while the (Eastern) Roman Empire lasted well into 15th century ... )

*"Every time the Germans get scared, s**t gets very real, very fast."**
HELLO, possibly the MOST STUPID STATEMENT I have heard about Germans .... from Zeihan !
The entire 'European Cabal', headed by Germans, are 'pussies', and expect the Americans to defend them ... and Germans can ONLY hope like hell that they will NOT FREEZE this coming winter, since U.S.A blew up the NordStream gas lines , and now the American Gas Industry has Germans by "short and curlies" 🙂 !
and as for the "Nuclear Weapons" 🙂 - Zeihan is spewing the IDIOCY of the HIGHEST DEGREE - Germans could no more use NUKES against Russians , than Canada could against USA ... 🙂
( for those who are the lefty morons, and have ZERO brains about Russia Nuclear Might, and who know nothing! about nothing! - Russia can SCRAPE all EU Capitals within 30 seconds ( just from Kaliningrad) - or SCRAPE all EU capitals TEN-TIMES over within 4 minutes (with the ICBMs from behind the Ural Mnt. -
AND it would be DEBATABLE if the U.S.A. would even then be willing to START THE GLOBAL NUCLEAR WAR w/RUSSIA 😞)

@ads998 ***Neither the Russians nor the Ukrainians want negotiations at this point. **
WRONG! Putin would cut the deal in a NY minute ... as long as NATO agrees to "no further expansion of NATO"
***And if you think Ukraine lacks the ability to impact Russian oil and gas exports and refining, then look at their output data. A 60% reduction in capacity isn't nothing** R U parroting Zeihan Data ? LOL ! .. neither you, nor I , have any REAL data as to the status of the Russian OIL&GAS industry - but I do know that Russian have 10-times of the capacity to OBLITERATE the ENTIRE Ukraine Industry if they wanted , PERIOD ! ( and that would be terrible tragedy ! - except for the NY Capital/Bankers Cabal - salivating to 'rebuild' the UKR, by lending them TRILLIONS of ??? ) and of course the American Military-Industrial-Complex which is just 'loving' the 'war' to keep going, even though cynically they know that the Ukies CANNOT possibly win ... 😞
***As for these negotiations you're chanting for, how much of your country would you let them keep?*** most in the know that Putin/Russia is NEVER giving Crimea back, PERIOD! - any more than the USA is not giving Puerto Rico back to Spain - LOL! -
( as far as Luhansk, pop.2.5 million, 40% Russian ; Donetsk, pop. 4.4 million, 60% Russian; and also Maripole Corridor ? ....so who knows how that will end up ! 🙂 )

@rigust12 thats a JOKE , right ?
- The DimokRats have done "nada' for the citizens of CA, they have been "SPEND and TAX" Party, for the last 30 yeras ...
and the ONLY rreason the CA had a lot of $$$$ to 'piss away", because many older "wealthy" live in CA, and pay somewhere between $40-60 BILLION in State Taxes just form the Stock Market "gains"; those "1%" pay over 50% of the CA State Taxes ( OVER $165 BILLION !!! , and thats 50-80% higher ratio than ANY other State ... so it is VERY UNSTABLE Tax Base ! ...( just look at the article of L A Times , on April 22, 2024, how easily 40-5) BILION CA State Budget deficit would materialize (!) - like it did in 2022 ... but CA was 'saved' since the Stock Market recovered in 2023, but as we say 'what goes up, must come down" 🙂... and so it is coming SOON ! LOL! ) !
( the "old wealthy farts" are dying or moving out of CA, and the 'younger" wealthy prefer TX, or FL (with the LOW State Taxe) , and so ther ewill be a MUCH PAIN with the CA Budgets, in the near future ---- .. and also many Corporate companies/entities ( ie SpaceX , Tesla, Toyota, etc ) are leaving the State becaue of the anti-Business Rules, Policies, and Laws ... ) -
and even as we write this , if the Stock Market went down even 10-15% % ( and the wealthy would not contribute as much to the State Taxes, on account of market losses ... ) , thren the CA 'kitty" would be in the hole by $50-$60 BILLION immediately , since Newsome has been spending the Budget like a 'DRUNKEN SAILOR" on the "stupid crap" ! 😞
.... and so in very few years CA, will be in the same "shitr-hole" like the State of N.Y. 🙂)

@cymerus2 **War in Ukraine was also unthinkable a few years back, and look where we are right now.**
Sadly, there would have been NO war in UKR, if the Polacks didn't get sucked into NATO/USA "CIA" 2014 coup, and then also sucked in to keep the UKR war going after 2022, by suckered UKR in believing that the EU ( incl. Poland !) were going to support UKR 'to death us part' 😞
Well, as we know NOW, they , EU and Poland, are "folding" and hoping like hell that TRUMP will "settle" the conflict, any way he can ;
so the EU can go back to their 'slumber' ... LOL ! 🙂

@ava7lanche yes, Caucases' "nations" , Georgia Azerbajjan, Armenia .. have a great history, but they are a small nations who get swept up by the Empires : Persian,, Seljuk, Byzantine, Mongolian, and then finally the RUSSIAN EMPIRE in 1800 ... and that is pretty well the situation today, the Russian sphere of influence leads back to 1800 ... can Georgia, or Amenia exist without the Russian Empire ( likely not , they would be absorbed into the MUSLIM/ISLAM HOARDS in the region ! 😞)
