Come on PeeZ! Even at your normal, sweeping generalization level, you have to admit that the situation is a lot more complicated than you made it out to be here!

Peter does not know much about naval history obviously! Back in the early 1900s, it was thought at one time that torpedo boats were going to defeat large service ships. Torpedo boats traveled very quickly, are hard to hit and of course they had people on them who can steer them intelligently towards their targets. However, torpedo boats did not displace large surface vessels at that time. In World War II, the United States tried PT boats and the German Navy tried Schnell boats, but neither one of those innovations was a decisive weapon. This video is a great example of how Peter predicts the future without knowing much of about the past, which makes him extremely dangerous to listen to. This is also a great example of how Peter does his “best“ thinking when he is camping at high altitudes where his brain is not getting enough oxygen.

This is a Peter video. We can really believe not because it contains any piercing insights or has any good reasoning but because it’s filmed in such a beautiful location! Peter obviously makes much more money than you do and so you should listen to whatever dribble he has to say and believe him, even though he does not present any charges or graphs or evidence or footnotes whatsoever to back up his reasoning and his conclusions. Peter is simply better than you and so you should believe what he has to say immediately. (What a load of bullshit!)

More bullshit! Thank you, Captain zero for putting your sweeping prophecy in the title of the video so that we all know that it is complete bullshit and don’t have to watch it.

Summary: captain P0 assembles a set of random facts to prove beyond the shadow of a doubt in his own mind that 8 1/2 x 11 paper will bring the downfall of all civilization in the next 10 days! As always, you can count 110% on his predictions!

The purpose of this video is twofold! First, Peter “chicken little“ Z is proving that if you say something like an outlandish prediction over and over again for 10 years, eventually it will come true! The other purpose of this video is to once again show all of his viewers that Peter can make more money saying stupid nonsensical unsupported predictions on a beach in South Carolina then you can make at your office or your home or anywhere else because Peter is so much smarter than you will ever be!

“Killed a few dozen people“??? Did he really say at the beginning of this video that the typhoons only “killed a few dozen people“??? Why should anybody believe anything that this guy says when he gets his numbers about the deaths in China during the last two weeks so incredibly wrong?

Peter! Peter are you at 14,000 feet or more? I don’t believe anything you say unless you’re at 14,000 feet watching a total eclipse hiking on the highest mountain in the Rockies waiting through snow wrestling snow, leopards and bobcats with your bare hands! Planning for gold and finding huge nuggets, just bumping into your feet and injuring your little toe! How can I believe anything you say Peter unless your life is fabulous???

Very, very superficial! Anyone who thinks that Peter’s opinion is a good one should look at how superficial this video is and compare it to other channel, such as “task and purpose“ that has done much deeper dive in what’s going on then I believe Peter ever could.

Peter may actually be right for a change! Believe it or not, Peter may actually be right that China is on the way down. I’m not sure it’s going to completely collapse but Peter is proving the Peter principle: if you make enough sensationalist prophecies based on sweeping poorly research generalizations occasionally you’ll be right! Yay Peter!

@suvrajyotigupta2368 Thank good ness we live in the World of Peter Zehin where history need not be taken into account! I may not be able to respond to your comments for a while because I'm going to hiking to high altitude where my brain will be better able to understand the Master's deep thought (i.e., where my brain will be starved for oxygen).

@Quickshot0 Good points. My problem with Peter Zehin is that he frequently makes bold, sweeping, dramatic, absolute, easy-to-digest, (and thus very tasty to the uninformed minds he targets) predictions about the future with little or no historical context. Your comment includes MUCH more historical context than Peter's spewage on this subject and, thus, is worthy of serious consideration. (BTW: "spewage" is my new copy-written term and requires permission for others to use! I anticipate it will soon be as popular as the term "truthy"!)

I don’t know what is more frightening! Listening to a Peter, whose brain is obviously starred for oxygen or imagining that people in other countries actually listen to what he has to say here!
1
Peter, I’m really sorry, but I can’t believe anything you say in this video because you’re standing in front of some Podunk museum wearing a cheap blazer and a JCPenney shirt with your beard and hair in desperate need of trimming! What happened to the Peter who was hiking at 14,000 feet or strolling along beautiful shores or wandering through national parks? Unless you are rubbing our noses in the fact that you make more money than any of your listeners spouting vague generalizationgeneralizations and making sweeping conclusions and predictions, I can’t take anything you say seriously.

I think Peter is right! I must give credit where credit is due. Undocumented workers actually profoundly helped the US economy and changing the laws to help them would be a big boost for everybody. I challenge Peter to consider the impacts of the two most prominent Trump policies announced so far: 1. MASS deportations. Did deport 10 million people means supporting 14,000 per day every day for two years. Considering the bribes and blackmail and extortion that will occur, you are probably looking at hundreds of billions of dollars of illegal money being given to the police, the courts, the politicians, etc., which will create profound corruption in this country for decades to come. Plus, removing 10000,000 undocumented workers from this country of course have a profound negative impact on our economy. 2. Tariff policy. Not only will this destroy the American economy, but it will also destroy the world economy.

@StarboyXL9 No "beginning" about it! I've been thinking PeeZ is very superficial for some time.

Lack of oxygen? Captain PeeZero predicts the unavoidable end of German based on some films he recently watched. Unfortunately, as usual, captain P0 forgot to check the date on the film,s which actually were taken in May 1945, and that show the devastation of Germany right after World War II.
