August 1st 2022. With The New Atlas - Brian Berletic and Angelo Giuliano ... Orsis Rutherford The problem with the US is that 90% of the population could not find Taiwan or The Ukraine on a map. I went to China in 2015 and I discovered an amazing country with a blend of tradition and modernity. People looked happy and I felt safe. AloofMicrobe "Be humble. Admit you know nothing about China. Start from zero and start building up a real understanding." Probably the best advice I've had my entire life - and I'm 63 years old! Thank you so much, both of you. Love and peace, from London. ashley mistletoe As a Taiwaneses, I can vouch for everything you said about Taiwan, history, politics.. very surprised that you nailed so much details. To add a few more facts: 1. Right now in Taiwan it's a hostage situation: people don't want to go to war with China but this government is doing america bidding and for us it's just disgusting, hateful yet there's nothing much we can do... 2. This government brainwashes the less informed population, controls media and public opinions with a massive cyber force that's silencing and suppressing opposition. It's despicable that they have the shame to brag about democracy. 3. NO ONE IN TAIWAN WANTS A WAR, not even the heavily propagandized, except the very few brainwashed extremists. Those in power such as Ms. Tsai never mind bleeding our blood but trust me they will be the first to fly away the moment smell of war approaches. 4. I've heard over and over again that parents told their kids to surrender when the war breaks out. I remember vividly one of them said, "Who are we fighting for? Tsai Yinwen?" followed with an angry sneer. THIS GOVERNMENT IS A DISGRACE. Nancy Barra Brian, you represent the best of young Americans. Your critical thinking and analytical skills are amazing and I hope people like you can lead the United States to a new era in the future. In the meantime you are helping a lot of people to think beyond what mass media is proyecting. Angelo Giluino is also a great thinker and analyst. Gav Munro As a Brit in China I agree with Angelo 100% about the sense of humility that we should have. I was someone who questioned why things were the way they were in China, thankfully the more I tried to understand China the quicker I grew out of it. There's a much said phrase here that 'When I landed in China I could write a book about it, after 10 years I could write a leaflet on it, after 15 years I can barely write half a page about it'. That's the reality. China is an enigma, it's not to be 'advised' but to be respected and studied. It's brought it's poorest into a middle class at a rate of knots. The west is vilifying China not to China's determent but to their own. They could learn so much from China's rise. Their elites choose not to tell the people the real story. That's the real tragedy.

Please, wake up - and spread the word, before it is too late. War - bombs, death, unspeakable atrocities - depends on your acquiescence. If, there's another war, it's all over, for everyone; there will be no winners this time. War is burning flesh, skulls ruptured, and children screaming in pain, all dying in the name of supremacy. Fear those that desire supremacy. We can all see it coming. YOU need to stop this madness. Yes, YOU. The mad men can't do it without fooling you first. Don't be fooled again. If not immediately vaporized, one will be burned alive and shredded by flying glass and other debris. If still gasping for air, there follows 'nuclear winter' - no sunlight and starvation; a planet poisoned for many thousands of years. This is madness. Stop the madness. Life should be everywhere, in our galaxy, and beyond, but there's just silence. Need life always end that way ? Are we really going to end it all over skin color or some nonsense 'politics' ?? Even you 'hate China', do you love this world ??? Everything 'you know' is BS - just think about it - don't get hypnotized by 'democracy' and 'human rights' by those who crush them, everywhere, and really seek ultimate rule - it's the new branding for colonialism - don't be fooled - don't be fooled by distractions and words - open your eyes for a different view - we have a common humanity, deeper than any elite's spin - don't be fooled ... Don't be fooled again - the young deserve a chance to create a better world - say no, to divide and rule ... The Who - Won't Get Fooled Again ('meet the new war; same as the old wars' - great song) - please, don't blow up this world, don't blow down this life; it's all that we have; let's not go forever silent - no wipe-out ... awesome drumming ... Bonus films - drums by a young Sina ... The Surfaris - Wipe Out (with a cool dad) ... Pink Floyd - Time (featuring Sticky Hickey) - just wow - what a band ... Metallica - Nothing Else Matters - featuring the very talented young singer Jadyn Rylee (a beautiful love song) ... So close, no matter where we are. Nothing else matters. I can only say - don't get fooled again - don't be out of time. No more, hypnotized by lies. Don't get on your knees and pray; speak out; trust not what you believe - trust in who you are - our common humanity - don't get fooled - that's all that really matters ...
