We're witnessing the "Great" Decoupling taking place right in front of our eyes. In many ways, it is a "Reset" with profound consequences.
In this podcast, I discuss in detail the four areas of decoupling that I see: a. Payment systems & USD b. Economics & trade c. Cultural, social, & travel d. Information & communication
I highlight that while (a) was in the cards and (b) was rather likely, it was not necessary for (c) and (d) to have taken place. It was also completely irrational for those who benefit the most from all the above to have initiated the decoupling in each of them.
I also answer the questions: 1. Can some of this be unwound? 2. What will a divided world lead to?
Finally, I discuss who the winners and losers are.
You can find the podcast on YouTube, Rumble, and Odysee.

Economic Cycle in Planned Economies
There is a popular myth that planned economies do not have economic cycles. This goes against well-documented deep, lasting recessions that preceded the downfall of the Eastern Block. Today, I try to set the record straight as concisely as possible.

How the West Can Destroy Russia
While I doubt the ruling elites in the West want to destroy Russia or have the stomach for the solution, in answering this hypothetical question I deduce a six-point strategy that could achieve the impossible.
