The good thing about Glenn Diesen is that he lets everyone make their points without interrupting. The bad thing is, he has guests like extremely reactionary Douglas McGregor, or that annoying fake Chinese “professor” who is pushing some obviously insane conspiracy theories. Stanislav is interesting for his battlefield knowledge I guess, but otherwise, as he once said “I am a monarchist!” which is a laughably dumb thing to publicly admit to.

These guests have some good insights, but they also have a lot of dumb ones too and it’s basically up to you to filter out the obviously dumb ones. For example, McGregor always and without fail, pivots to immigrants as the root of all evil and for me personally, he isn’t worth listening to, for a couple of interesting points he perhaps managed to make under a mountain of garbage. Krapivnik mostly talks about the battlefield, so if that’s your thing, he is (for me) more tolerable than McGregor.

Their contemporary sympathizers also push pseudoscientific Iranian origin theory.

He says a lot of decent things. He was banned from Germany for being against genocide in Gaza after all, but occasionally he just absolutely has to ruin it, by e.g. cheerleading for ex Al Qaeda taking over Syria and throwing out completely unnecessary and typical western „leftist“ anti-Soviet tropes…

Oh well…you take the useful stuff and discard the rest…

Turns out Platner literally guarded the Abu Ghraib where he got his first combat experience. This keeps getting worse and worse lol

Watching Mearsheimer and Sachs on Glenn Diesen about “Spheres of Security”…Sachs saying he agrees with what Stalin wanted to do with Germany after WW2 and Mearsheimer saying Germany should have been broken up to pieces after WW1 made me chuckle. It’s like reading takes from Lemmygrad and Hexbear. 😄

Stumbled upon your channel for the Chinese nuclear submarine video.

So, in I think 2021 North and South Korea were about to sign an agreement which would include an end to war. Then I think Sullivan wrote on behalf of the US that they do not agree with it fully and that was the end of it. Does anyone have a link perhaps?

So…if you were to vote in upcoming German elections, who would you vote for?
