The UN food price index is a great predictor of global instability. The last time it spiked we had the Arab spring. Looks like more trouble in the Middle East this time too. https://www.fao.org/worldfoodsituation/foodpr

Just look at the Russia Ukraine war as an example of this. Total combat death is somewhere between 500k and 1m depending on sources. Probably the nastiest modern war since Korea and still the media portrays it as being sterile and almost cl

Racism is a big part of it. Every race thinks they are superior and somehow other people are stupid, orks, apes, subhumans etc. When wars break out though it generally turns out that people are equally capable of killing each other and logi

Wars reset all debts and China has all the capacity to sustain a massive war economy equal to USA during WW2. I think people underestimate what they could do if provoked or desperate

You forgot all the pending African crisis. Probably a few more in North Africa as well. Food costs have hit the threshold where global instability in poor regions is high. Also possibly Pakistan

NK would bring SK down to NK levels of civilization. I doubt SK has enough weapons and ammunition to fully counter NK. It would run low on ammo quickly. NK is already a post apocalyptic wasteland not much would change if you bombed it to th

The concept of a voting shareholder is a myth. Most shares are owned/managed by funds so they are the true voters. They just vote to make sure the that the boat isn’t rocked too much.

Yeah but quantity has always been chinas strength. Where they have historically struggled is quality. If they can bring the quality up to acceptable levels then those numbers would be truly impressive. That’s what they are striving for
