Observations on power dynamics,: personal and political

You know, I think a better description of the kind of analysis that I do would be an analysis of power dynamics, not really geopolitics, but I'm not really I'm not aware of that being a recognized field, so I just call it geopolitics. But it's just understanding of how power works, really. This is largely predictable if you're sufficiently informed about the various factors that are at play in any given situation because we're talking about people. And people behave more or less the same regardless of scale. I mean, way an individual acts is the way a state acts very often.

And the way a corporation acts is the way a person would act if they were basically, you know, a psychopath or a sociopath. So if you understand that type of behavior, it's just common sense really. Alright. I'll give you an example. If the West, specifically America, the West is very insular and they truly cannot understand any other people.

They're trapped in their own paradigms, their own worldview, their own concept of life. They're completely restricted to their own experience. They cannot relate or comprehend other people's experiences, other people's paradigms. So they think that everyone in the world operates the way that they do. This is why, one of their strategies for regime change, for example, is to impose economic hardship on a nation like Turkey.

They've done everything possible, to destroy the Turkish economy hoping that the Turkish people would get fed up and remove Erdogan because they think that everyone is like them. They don't understand the Turks. I mean, I've never seen any people who close ranks like the Turks do when they feel that they're being attacked. They'll suffer anything. They'll suffer difficulty, ostracization, hardship, whatever, and they will never capitulate if they feel that you're attacking them.

They absolutely circle the wagons even around someone that they may otherwise not like because they completely reject external pressure. But Americans can't understand that. America can't understand that as a character that they cannot relate to or comprehend. So if you're paying attention, what that means is that they are revealing to you their own weakness, their own vulnerabilities because they're using against you what would work if you used it against them. That's why they think it'll work because they think that you're just like them.

And this determines the tactics that they use. They use on others what would work if it was used on them. And they are materialistic. They need comfort. They need convenience.

They cannot tolerate delayed or denied material gratification. They can't cope with difficulty. And they'll surrender if things get too hard. They'll just give up. That's what they're doing, in fact, to their own people, and it's working.

That's why the American people have given up. So they think that this strategy will work everywhere, but, of course, it doesn't. So this same dynamic applies in any interaction with them, even on a personal level, any debate or discussion, for example. They'll come at you with whatever they think would work if you came at them with it. They attack what they think are your weaknesses because those are their weaknesses.

So you can always know what their vulnerable points are. And this also often means that they will accuse you of something because it's something that they are either doing or have done. It's confession through projection as they call it. Because they know that if you were to accuse them of that thing, it would be a weak point for them. It would be a vulnerability because they're actually guilty of that thing.

So they can't help but expose their weaknesses when they attack you because their weaknesses determine how and where they will attack you. It's very precise. And it's the same on an individual level as it is on the state level because they're so insular. Everything they do towards others tells you everything you need to know about them.
