#1 So we are winning and Russia is near collapse says the last idiot. There is always a last idiot.

#2 2024... who knows what'll happen by 2024? The condition of the world as volatile as it is, no one can bet on anything. Or against. There are just too many variables. One thing is for sure. Idiots support globalists and the wise are in favour of strong, closed border sovereign nation states. And idiots being in abundance, globalists will probably keep on plodding toward total dominion, laying waste to whatever our ancestors have painstakingly built.

#3 ^ Good comment, Dron. A trifle pessimistic for my tastes, but a good comment.

#4 The entire world economy is under pressure from inflation, loss of materials due to the war, etc. Russia isn't special in this. However, they sure as fuck won't starve to death either.

#5 You left out Latin America, Africa, Vietnam, Arab world, Cambodia and Laos. The shift has begun in a big way. With extreme weather in EU and winter fast approaching I look for Germany and France to buckle(Norway has cut gas to EU and one other cut gas I believe Algeria, Australia is in there somewhere). Returning lands to Poland will be a major move for Putin. As always to the victor will go the spoils. The dog bites both masters.

#6 With extreme weather in EU

No more extreme than usual, Dale, despite the hysteria of the hysterics.

#9 I wonder how environmentalists would respond to "hysteria of the hysterics". Greta would respond quite freely. A polarity of extremes.

#10 There are no real environmentalists, anyway. Except for the good folks that plant trees, research innovative cultivation and actually non-destructive forms of industry, fight against poaching and deforestation etc. Unfortunately the globalists do not endorse those. No, for them environmentalists only mean mercenary eco-terrorists and law-farers and uncouth, dishonest academics trying to strong arm administrations and economies.
