Just dropped a new (emergency?) episode of the pod, covering:

the US tentative ceasefire with the Houthis marks another lost war;
why China’s tech breakthrough in 6th-generation fighters make arms-racing self-defeating for the US;
the shape of a post-American Asia beginning to emerge;
what a fascist budget looks like;
why Stephen Miller is like that;
the Trump administration is trying to export its “war on woke” to Stockholm, and it’s failing;
and more!
Get it wherever you get podcasts, or watch the full video of the episode on our YouTube channel. ✌️
Love “reestablishing deterrence is not a thing.” This is so important.
As you know, US think tankers are very concerned about “declining US deterrence” vis a vis China with special focus on Taiwan. Thus they frame a need for reestablishing this presumed deterrence. This fallacy leads to “a need to go full on an arms race” with China to chase a fallacy-based great power arms competition.
This all deserves at least a book. Not saying you should write the book! But, please keep talking about this. We need several young scholars to take this craziness on!
