People make fun of Zeihan here. But Zeihan isn't some random youtuber. Zeihan has a PhD, is the author of like 3 new york times best selling book, has worked as the vice president of a multi-million dollar intelligence consulting agency before, has implied that he worked for the CIA before, regularly gives talks to CEO and heads of state. He's not some random literally who youtuber, you fucking abortions, this guy is legit. And he has always said, since 2005 that he expects China to collapse by 2030, not in 6 months.

Also, he's not the only one, there's literally hundreds of experts that also agree that China is gonna collapse soon. Also also, he has made dozens of correct predictions. If he says that China is fucking done for, China is fucking done for. Just wait until 2030, you will fucking see.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_Zeihan

>After completing his education, Zeihan worked for the American embassy in Australia and at the Center for Political and Strategic Studies, a think tank founded by Susan Eisenhower

>In 2000, he joined the Austin, Texas-based geopolitical intelligence firm Stratfor as an analyst, where he worked for 12 years, eventually becoming vice president.

>Zeihan left Stratfor in 2012 and founded Zeihan on Geopolitics, a consulting firm. His clients have included energy companies, financial institutions, business associations, agricultural organizations, universities, and government entities.

>In 1995, he earned a BS in political science at Northeast Missouri State University and in 1997 a postgraduate diploma in Asian studies at the University of Otago in New Zealand. He also attended the University of Kentucky's Patterson School of Diplomacy and International Commerce.

Do have any idea how much of a pseud you have to be to get a PhD in 2025? And I donโ€™t even mean itโ€™s a pseud qualification, which it is, but rather how a smart person wouldnโ€™t even subject themselves to that process.

China has a surplus of fighting-age males and a generation to wait until labor supply catches up with the massive demand crunch. It's incredibly obvious that China will have to start a war and roll the dice. The cynic's lesson from WWII is that war can be an incredible industrial stimulus if you're willing to accept the moral implications of starting an arbitrary war for your own economic gain.

This is, incidentally, the reason(ish) for Putin's war: faced with massive national economic decay and complete demoralization, war was the boost he chose. Depoliticization of Russians was TOO effective -- it allowed oligarchs to completely capture the economy and extract almost all value and the citizenry was sufficiently alienated from the process that it fell into despair and escapism. The war's greatest success has been in revitalizing national sentiment and this was its real goal -- not the capture of Ukraine.

The world at large is on a war footing and unless the humanists somehow manage to win out, a greater systemic war seems unavoidable at this point.

the only thing i have heard ziehan say that i agree with is that latin american demographics are in the toilet so the future of immigration to america will be asian, this is why they are so hard for h1b pajeets

im no china fan, but its hard to get proper news about it cause on one side you have anti china people exaggerating about a collapse, and the other side you have commies who lie about how great everything is

If you have a little money (say $250K annual income, or $2M NW) you will live like a KING in China. The level of service and treatment you get for the money is not obtainable in the West.

He earned his "BS" alright! Hes been doom preaching about china for years and at every US electoral cycle they are the ones getting worse lol.
Anyway, a fiscally conservative/pro-green/gay guy whose lifestyle is basically travelling in a never ending vacation doing trails through woodlands and mountains (he has no idea of how hard life is for the common Joe) and whose adoptive parents are wealthy jews (careful with his pro-Israel stance!) is kinda of an oddity by itself.

PZ has great analysis, but terrible predictions.

I equate it to like chess when you are playing a kid who tries to calculate a few moves ahead, but only considers what he thinks is his opponents best move. Opponent may have several move options and he if picks one you weren't thinking about then all the rest of the forward calculation is blown.

PZ is constantly saying X is happening to country Z, therefore A->B->C will happen, with C being the big prediction of something terrible. But country Z knows X is happening, so country Z does what it has to, to make sure A doesn't happen and if A does happen it doesn't lead to B and then C.

PZ has great Analysis of China and their demographics, he just misses the very obvious part that China does not want to collapse and will therefore do whatever is necessary to not..
