The main Didactic Mind podcast is FINALLY back with a new episode. This one is all about the very real and visible collapse of the American Empire, and the manner in which Amerikhastan is reacting to it. In this episode, I outline the tectonic shifts in geopolitics that we have seen in the past week, and explain some of their implications for the Western neoliberal empire. I point out that neither the Chinese nor the Russians are in the least bit interested in actual hegemony - instead, they are actually interested in simply being left the hell ALONE to pursue their own courses and development paths. I specifically discuss the failings of the neoliberal ideology of Clown World and GloboHomoPaedoSatanry, and I explain how the developing nations of the world are fighting and pushing back against it. And I note the implications for Westerners and their economies as a result of their own policies.

Of particular interest to me here is the rather odd Western notion that China seeks to supplant America as a global hegemon. This is simply untrue, and I explain why by pointing out some basic geopolitical realities of China's position in the world.

I close by noting that Western neoliberal failures have compounded to the point where they simply cannot sustain themselves any longer, and the "turbo-Americanism" of the West is going to fail, no matter what.

There will be a Domain Query episode coming up as well, as there is a question from a reader which I did not fully address in this one.

I make some pretty incendiary statements in this podcast, and in most of my podcasts. I can only do so because I take steps to protect myself from the Big Tech companies, and preserve my identity. You need to do the same – this is no longer optional, because if you don’t, the gatekeepers WILL come for your head.
