  1. Except that one that is FORCED on us. GROW A BRAIN.

  3. AUSTRALIA is the USA's greatest ally. EVER. M 🦘🏏😎

  4. As a YANK, you have no say in it. Can only comment. Fair enough. The EU crap is why the Brits got out. Check the history. And the FEAR campaign. EU is waking up... SLAVA UKRAINI ! 💪💪 M 🦘🏏😎

  5. Scottish independence is clearly a pipe dream that is used by corrupt politicians to boost their 'rating' amongst Scots. For shame on them. Brutal honesty about numbers and populations, for which I thank you, sir. Another great video. M 🦘🏏😎

  6. It will be truth.

  7. Except when SPRINTING, I was always told when training to run at a speed at which I could hold a conversation. It's all about learning breath control. See the Aussie aboriginies and how they play the Didgeridoo for mastery!

  8. Israel Supreme Court finally seeing the big picture rather than a pinhole view. Good decision. 👍 Discrimination is a sin in every society that wishes to be considered 'civilised'... M 🦘🏏😎

  9. High birth rates are one stat. Not THE stat. Even if kids make it to an age to be 'productive', how well will they do? M 🦘🏏😎

  10. Sweden is almost in NATO? Great! 👍 But who has been holding Orban's feet to the fire 🔥? That's the really interesting issue, I reckon... M 🦘🏏😎

  11. We Aussies have been shipping LNG away in such volumes and for so long that our local gas customers are now paying through the roof for gas, because there's almost none left. Shortsighted MADNESS by our governments. Yet they're too pig-headed or too cowardly to do anything - and they wonder why they can't get inflation down... Well done by President Biden! 😁 M 🦘🏏😎

  12.  @dragonhero14  Like TRUMP and XI and KIM, nobody EVER said that Vlad PUTLER was intelligent....

  13. For a nation that recently votes for a nationalist / right-wing Prime Minister, I find India's desire to be buddies with Ruzzia and China very confusing... They seem to have their own direction planned. Yet they are part of the Earth. Something's gotta give at some stage... M 🦘🏏😎

  14. Interesting to see the order in which Mr Zeihan posts his videos - almost as much as the thoughtful content... His venture to Europe was clearly a long trip. I could NEVER AFFORD ANY MEAL in Monaco! 😮😮 M 🦘🏏😎

  15. Hi Peter. Well it's 30C here in Sydney. So I'm using energy (stand fan) to stay comfortable. Good to see the tech folks having a 'battle'! That's how a 'market' works. Competition. M 🦘🏏😎

  16.  @thehunzz  NO. Economic reality.
    2
  17. I can only HOPE - for the benefit of the USA and THE WORLD - that you are proven correct, Peter. Another term of ORANGE POISON SACK 🤢 was be utterly catastrophic! 😲 We Aussies will be watching intently. M 🦘🏏😎

  18. We are at 30C in Sydney. Being a CELT, I would rather be in Colorado. M 🦘🏏😎

  19. After Israel are 'finished' with Hamas, with Gaza be habitable by ANYONE? And, even assuming the rubble can be cleared, where are any people going to get food, water, electricity etc? Thanks for another concise and yet highly entertaining piece of analysis, Sir! 🤗👍 M 🦘🏏😎
    2
  20. Seems like there are many nations around the world that are getting "CRUNCHED" demographically. How is our entire world going? Which countries are actually 'doing well'? (I guess that's a relative term now...) M 🦘🏏😎
    2
  21. Protests should be acceptable. Legally. But DEATHS as a result of protests are NOT! 😮😮 M 🦘🏏😎

  22. Sorry, Sir, off topic question here. Is that a Knight's Helmet beanie you are wearing? 😲🤣 What an amazing piece of headgear... (Not much snow here in SYDNEY.) On topic - Yesterday I saw a clip of Ruzzian TV propagandists saying they could easily fill the Baltic Sea with mines. Deluded! Thanks for your analysis. 👍 M 🦘🏏😎

  23. PAVEL DUROV is DONE! He will have to sing to the French authorities to save his selfish skin. It's nothing less than he deserves. He's far ken EVIL. 👺 Slava Ukraini! 💪💪 M 🦘🏏😎
    2
  24. AUKUS is actually pronounced "orkus". But that's a minor detail... The thing about AUKUS is that it pisses off the CCP really badly. That's a great thing. 👍 Hi to our Allies in the USA, Japan and the UK. M 🦘🏏😎
    2
  25. "Rocket Force"? They put water in the fuel tanks? 🤔 Sounds more like "TEAM ROCKET" from Pokemon to me! 🤣 M 🦘🏏😎

  26. Aussies have been developing drought resistant wheat for decades. Let's hope the genetic work pays off. M 🦘🏏😎

  27. The Japanese find themselves on the front line again. This time facing to their WEST. Taiwan is a free, independent and democratic nation. M 🦘🏏😎

  28. TRUTH MUST BE FREE - ALWAYS. CCP CHINA has been awful since 1949 and a total disaster since 2019. Glad and sad that you are finally catching up.... M 🦘🏏😎
    2
  29. "Strong men"? Are you kidding, sir? I think so... 🤣 Russia, China and North Korea are falling apart, piece by piece. We Aussies stand with UKRAINE! 💪💪 M 🦘🏏😎

  30. The Brits at first SAID" NO" to Australia when we sought an FTA with them after Brexit. They may regret that arrogant decision. We shall see... M 🦘🏏😎
    2
  31. Vietnam seems to be in a good situation. Let's hope their political system matures... They have much in common with nearby nations. M 🦘🏏😎

  32. Why is snow bad for Colorado? TikTok is BAD. CCP spyware. M 🦘🏏😎

  33. I started playing D&D under 1st Ed. rules. That's all I need to say. M 🦘🏏😎

  34. UNCROSS YOUR LEGS and sit straight and strongly please, Peter. Be mindful of the power of your negative and defensive body language. You are already in a 'box' on this stage, so you should feel "safe". Crossing legs and showing your heel to the interviewer is telling him to p!ss off. Do you know what your subconscious is doing? Please watch some videos of SIR MICHAEL PARKINSON for how to do an interview. Please. M 🦘🏏😎

  35. How about telling the broadcast time in terms of GMT? That's the universal time standard - always has been - not any of the local Yank times. Thanks. M 🦘🏏😎

  36. The moronic CCP made their own bed, and now they must lie in it. The factories in the south and south-east of Chine are now ALL CLOSED and foreign companies have FLED! 😲 The problem is that it's the Chinese people who are and will continue to suffer - and that's even WITHOUT the CCP killing them all by opening floodgates on the dams... M 🦘🏏😎
    2
  37. Any GARBAGE there where you are, Peter? Seems not. Lovely open lands. CCP China is ALREADY done. Their figures are lies. It's MUCH WORSE. CCP has truly brought on THE GARBAGE TIMES. M 🦘🏏😎

  38. Since you're in the 'neighbourhood', will you visit Australia and come and try some of our world's best wines? 😄🤔 This video made me thirsty! 🤣 M 🦘🏏😎

  39. If you think the citizens of the USA or Australia or any western democratic nation need to be concerned about how money works, go and LIVE IN CHINA and see how that goes for you. Grow the heck up! M 🦘🏏😎

  40. You sure do travel around a lot, Peter! 😲 Do you ever spend more than two days in a row at home? 🤣 Many nations 'handled' COVID way better than the USA and certainly CCP China. But the world has to deal with the inflationary effects of COVID and supply chain disruption... Can we even be sure that there WILL be another 'baby boom' in any nation? 🤔 M 🦘🏏😎

  41. Any "domination" would be more acceptable if the products were actually of reasonable, 'merchantable' QUALITY. But Chinese EVs are utter crap! 💩 M 🦘🏏😎

  42. It's just more bad news for us all to deal with, because no conflict stays between conflicting nations... M 🦘🏏😎

  43. Another REALITY CHECK for us all! 😲 Thank you, Sir! 👍 I guess that investors are just going to have to be more selective with their money... M 🦘🏏😎

  44. Australia will always support the USA. 👍 But we also know our local friends are also very important - for both sides in all bilateral partnerships. The Japanese have done a great job adapting to their changing local 'environment'. M 🦘🏏😎

  45. Today is actually 12 August 2024. But thank you as always for your truth and analysis, Sir. The Bangladeshi governments are shameless in their levels of incompetence and corruption. Lessons in how to keep a nation impoverished. 👺 Their CRICKET TEAM is pretty darn good though! 👍 M 🦘🏏😎

  46. So, I guess this means that the US approach now is: "Let's observe from a safe distance." 🤣 Thanks for another great analysis, Sir! 👍 M 🦘🏏😎

  47. Sir, After analysing all the nations for all the things that you might see as holding them back, are there any nations that you see as being flexible and able enough to grow in the second half of the 21st Century? M 🦘🏏😎

  48. The CCP are clearly in a desperate position. They know that have to do whatever it takes to stay in the tech game. Beware a desperate CCP. Well done by our Aussie 'detectives' who found the dirt on Huawei and alerted the world... 🤗👍 My old 3G NOKIA still works perfectly fine. Why move to anything else? M 🦘🏏😎

  49. NO. GROW A BRAIN.

  50. I have to use less energy because here in Australia, ENERGY IS NOW SO DAMN EXPENSIVE! 😮 "We ALL have to move... To IOWA!" Oh my, that was HILARIOUS! 🤣🤣 M 🦘🏏😎
