i heard some statements from Whatifalthist in the this video. and I will say some of what he said about Europe.
(America has a significant military whilst nearly no one in Europe does)
My opinion:
ok fair enough, although no one is exaggerated and we are extremely weak in comparison to the USA but our militaries could do ok against some Asian countries, as well as African and South American countries from what i believe.
(their political institutions are Totally unsustainable)
My opinion:
yeah some institutions aren’t the best at dealing with Populism and can get too bureaucratic but I mean I am still able to work and do other activities as well as be with friends and family.
(Europe needs violence to reset)
My opinion:
wait what How does me getting killed or punched help me It would maybe have been better to say that Europe needs harshness to gain toughness but downright violence I don’t see how mass fighting or death would help me and my family and country.
(Northern Europe is literally trying to commit civilizational suicide through mass migration or climate focused Degrowth)
My opinion:
my country Denmark is committing Civilization suicide The only country normally talked about amongst those countries in terms of Migration from European experts are Sweden and I am not sure about civilization suicide. And while we focus on Climate Change I don’t think we Willingly tries to do Degrowth.
(Europe as a coherent force will lose and become unstable, Nihilistic, and poor)
My Opinion:
Yeah I agree with Unstable.
But Nihilistic Majority of Europe is Christians at least culturally and follow Protestant and catholic and orthodox cultural traditions. Even if they are fairly lenient. What is his obsession with everything becoming nihilistic Does he even know what that means As someone who shortly in my life was nihilistic in the past, that is certainly not what I see around me, many people are very engaged in many things, people seem happy and emotional enough, it’s not all doom or gloom, we aren’t harkonnens. If we were totally nihilistic we would probably fall into mass violence.
Also as for Poor, just look at lists of our current economies or forecasts for our future economy, while yes we might get Poorer than in the past we still are either fairly middle or high in most lists. I don’t see us becoming poor in the way that we can’t make a living in the future, and I don’t think I need to evaluate, even if we are getting older we still have experts in economy to guide us or keep us in check, and we have enough will to work. I don’t even think we have any countries compared to poor countries like North Korea or Somalia and we probably won’t have in the next 50 years at least.
how much Validity are there to his claims in your opinions Especially from you people from Europe like me

I don't think this will end with a total war or a civil war or anything like that, I think it will end with this 4th turning having lots of proxy wars and the increase of soft power, the mass death will occur because of demographic collapse as all the old people die due to the lowering standard of living, which will allow people to use an infrastructure that was built for a larger population of people to greater effect as there will be enough resources and opportunity for the smaller but much younger population that will occur in 10-20 years time. Additionally in terms of the 150 year cycles, I have noticed intellectual societal changes at the end of those and this cycles at the end will be the birth of commonplace AI being the intellectual change, much like the birth of liberty after the french revolution or for the united states at least, perhaps an anti corruption bill of laws that will be signed into law to mitigate how much politicians can earn from being in power. Additionally I don't think america will ever become isolationist as it is in the process of re industrialization on a scale that produces much more higher end goods and food stuffs which it will primarily export to places like europe, south america and africa, as well as japan so all the signs are there for it wanting to maintain it's current influence over trade and have some level of external view, it will simply deal with it's domestic problems as a priority first in the future instead of second as it's political class does today, which is basically a way of showing that in the end democracy works, (if not every 100 or so years: ) ( if not add the words eventually here. Please keep in mind I mean this for the west and most western countries, not other parts of the world.

All I know is that the maharaja's in India will come out Victorious as the Kings from the East will rule again thank goodness it will be the Indians because they are the most Multicultural group of all the groups in the world and have their fingertips in every single culture on Earth and speak a myriad of different languages I have one of the oldest religions on the face of the planet and they are one of the original Semitic people so they have full authority to be able to break out and do exactly what Britain did to them and they already have the Mercantile Market cornered in America so they're not going to destroy the hegemony they help build instead they just going to move the headquarters from the West to the East and it will be business as usual just under the more efficient Indian culture as they do away with the one thing holding them back their caste system Esther Brahma family declines you will notice that Patel family has a mass of Fortune worldwide and they will be the head of India being a Mercantile family with a lot of ties no different than the Rothschilds but different in the fact that they are not corrupt but honest humble kind people that came from the bottom and now they're at the top

I disagree with your assessment that the DoD is mostly right. I retired in 2022 and the last two years were increasingly woke in ideology. I'd say that the remaining Gen Xers who are still in the military are mostly leftists (weeded out the right-leaning people) like the Chairman of JCS General CQ Brown. And the Millennials are the ones running units as commanders and senior enlisted. They started out 50% left and they too have weeded out the right-leaning Millennials through woke policies. And Gen Z are nothing but followers who have been denied critical thinking in their public education, thus are not much more than obedient drones. The National Guard is a different story. Many who left the DoD have transitioned to the various Guard units. Of course, I am not saying that EVERYBODY in the DoD fits this description. But it is certainly not as right-leaning as you perceive. When the shooting starts, there are going to be plenty of DoD personnel whom are more than willing to open fire on what they will call right-wing extremist groups. Its going to be very messy.

most of these made sense but 2 things 1 Its incredibly ridiculous to think that Afghanistan could become a super power just because you think their fighters are more badass and live in a rugged terrain when they cant educate any engineers dont have any significant resource advantages and cant build good infrastructure due to being both landlocked and have mountains everywhere and 2 the united states second civil war is a complete joke that only politically obsessed neckbeards take seriously to think that the twitter using self described communists traditionalist christian nationalists and anarcho capitalists would do anything of substantial political action besides consume internet brain rot on their phones and maybe protest every now and again is just silly you also vastly over estimate the impact of social and political factors over basic economic and geographical factors

The difference for now is that the Chinese General population do not have access to weapons while their political Elite and the military state does that's different in America it's a two-way rifle range and it's going to start in Texas I believe either by the end of this year or the beginning of next year it's going to pop off big time especially with the arrest and charging and conviction of Donald Trump by New York I do believe that America is now on a one-way course to Civil War and it's going to be the bloodiest Civil War the world has ever seen even worse than Rome since both sides have bullets bombs and have the capabilities of making and deploying nuclear weapons as well as the invention of artificial intelligence and drones this is going to be bananas when it goes off

Good video. The only objection I would have is I dont think North Korea doesnt have problems regarding low fertility rate. Yeah, North Korea is probably one of the least transparent and one of the most secretive countries when it comes to reliable data regarding the information about demograohics of the country; but I surmise that whole North Korea probably has higher birth rates than South Korea, the birth rates of North Korea is still low. And, south korea can compensate for its low fertility rate through skilled immigration from other Asian countries like Vietnam, Phillipines, Malaysia while North Korea doesnt have such an option

I'm skeptical of statistical trends the span pre and post industrial times. For one thing, stats from the past get less reliable quickly. But mostly because, with the industrial revolution, people became more interdependent on national scales. This gives more people more motivation to work against the collapse of national systems. As far as Iran goes, I suspect the US would wage war on it the way it did on Serbia. Given the recent outcome of a house race in an Alabama district with a large military base. I think your impression of the military as staunchly pro-MAGA is mistaken.

In my opinion, as soon as there is sufficient technology to either disable or intercept nuclear missiles, we are in for some terrible wars.
There were two things that kept this period of peace, a small one was Pax Americana, but unfortunately we’re having domestic issues that make that infeasible. The more major one is MAD.
As soon a nation creates a way to make nuclear missiles irrelevant, we’re gonna see some bad times.
If you are on the younger side like me, prepare your bodies and ready your minds for a future conflict.

I red somewhere a long time ago, all great changes in life are like death, you won't know what's on the other side until you cross over, a world without Europe, China and USA, its equally terrifying and interesting place to be in. if we survive long enough. cause I got another fortun cookie wisdom piece to share with you, life is joy and death is peace, it's only the transition that is painful. the transition from this end of 21st century to the other end will be indeed a great struggle. good hunting people, see you on the other side

I frankly believe the Chinese military isn’t that good.
I wonder how much of that assertion you think will be mitigated by their robot dogs. I saw a video previously of how they would be able to effectively deploy a pod of, say, five 30 pound dogs with small arms mounted on top. Enemy combatants might be able to take out one or two dogs, but they are constantly networking, and live-updating the battlefield tactics of enemies that take out those first units
Anybody here know how to build a microwave gun

Not to mention, with more or less the entire world being tied to the fiat currency masquerading as the US Dollar, and the US Dollar basically teetering on the edge of total collapse due to decades of increasing unsustainable inflation, the world as we know it could very quickly devolve into complete collapse as the global economy goes belly up, which would almost certainly result in global conflict like nothing we've ever seen.

China has many of the same social issues as the United States today
It's almost like we've both moved into mixed-model economies from different sides, and ultimately arrived at a socio economic model that has elements of capitalism, socialism and fascism in differing proportions resulting in a blurry, mixed up hellscape accelerated by modern technology and information warfare.

I feel like your not taking into account a lot of gun owners just have guns in the us they aren’t war ready like shooting at the range a couple weekends out the year is totally different than live combat I think we are to complacent for anything to happen it’s easier for all of us to just cry about it than anything actually happening and that goes for the left or right

Let China absorb it so they can continue building their chips without having to invade Taiwan just give them North Korea and let them collaborate with South Korea to develop their own chips that way there's no war between the United States and China and they continue to be trade Partners instead of Rivals because it benefits nobody but the 1%

I doubt North Korea really wants to occupy the south. Having twice as much southeners inside their borders would be an ideological suicide to the regime, even if they would conquer them militarily they would change the regime to their face from the inside. You just cannot control that many people without they influencing your mindset.
