00:00:00
Most of us have no idea of what a real
00:00:02
pandemic is like. Like a Spanish flu or
00:00:05
black plague. We don't know what Poland
00:00:07
went through where they lost, you know,
00:00:08
I don't know, 20 25% of their population
00:00:11
to war. Our whole life has been in a
00:00:13
bubble.
00:00:13
You said, "I'm looking at the end."
00:00:15
Yeah.
00:00:16
You're in it.
00:00:19
This is This is now. You're looking at
00:00:22
the disintegration of NATO. You're
00:00:24
looking at people who don't know how to
00:00:26
maintain the systems that were
00:00:27
engineered by their great-grandparents
00:00:28
after World War II. That order the UK
00:00:31
woke up to the idea that they had built
00:00:34
into their heads that we are the masters
00:00:37
of the world. You saw the beginning of
00:00:39
the end of this concept of the British
00:00:42
Empire. That moment is coming for the
00:00:45
US. You saw the celebration that Trump,
00:00:48
you know, had dealt this blow to the
00:00:50
Iranian nuclear facilities. You you
00:00:52
watch the Persians come back. We're
00:00:54
starting to realize what the boundaries
00:00:56
are as people are more bold in trying
00:00:59
things. The era of stasis where very
00:01:01
little happened over very long periods
00:01:03
of time is over.
00:01:05
So you think this is the start of
00:01:06
escalation?
00:01:08
This is the start of the undoing of the
00:01:10
postworld war II order. The idea that
00:01:13
the postworld war II order is still in
00:01:15
place is astounding.
00:01:18
So what happens next? We either scare
00:01:20
the crap out of ourselves and come to
00:01:22
our senses or we
