I guess I didn’t think I needed to qualify “crisis” by limiting it to one’s that we’re not perceived as being self induced.

This falls into the the third reason for the Russian invasion of Ukraine IMO. NATO expansion is primary.

Reasons for Russian invasion of Ukraine:

1. Western mismanagement of post Soviet Russia. Specifically NATO expansion. The brazen eastward expansion of NATO has been declared a existential threat to Russia by Russian leaders for the past 2-3 decades.

2. Europe's hyper reliance on energy and commodities from Russia. Not necessarily a direct reason but a disposition between nations that allows for Russian advancement.

3. Expansionist desires of Putin. I'm under no illusion that Putin does not have expansionist desires. Your reason fall under Putin's expansionists desires.

4. Putin believes he his is a salvific force for Christendom versus Western woke-ism.


We do not get to 2., 3. and 4. without 1.

Globalists

Who, apparently, want to attack globalism


What's a "globalist"?

You seem to not understand how change works, or markets for that matter...

All through history, change happened for usually one reason: a crash or destruction of the current ruling order.

What usually comes out of that is some form of socialism or totalitarianism. That's the rule, not the exception.

So let's say you are a "globalist" who wants to "rule"...what would a rational "globalist" do if history has any validity at all?

Move all the pieces on the chest board in place by buying up all the farmland, manipulating currency to buy and control physical commodities, controlling information and the flow of thought while disrupting the energy supply.

THEN crash the markets...creating the ultimate "buy low" scenario where the richest come out exponentially richer and in control of almost all the global economies creating a "subscription model" for the average person for everything using digital currencies and social credit scores for complete control.

Are you not paying attention AT ALL?

Many people who are familiar with my posts in the past warning of oncoming events will tell you, I'm straight up correct in the long run...from the election being fraudulent, to the Chinese playing us for decades, to the government spying on us, to paid democratic operatives on this very site, to the COVID/VACCINE scam, to even saying would would win a NC the year we finally started Matt Flynn

I've been 100% right on calling ALL of that, not because I am smart, but because I have common sense and am objectively paying attention.

And I am telling you now - the aim is to move us to a controllable subscription model for everything based on digital currencies.

Bitcoin was the test. ESG was the test. The vaccine push was the infrastructure build. The patriot act was the foundation for the west. All these were chest pieces moving in place for the checkmate.

I do not believe the US blew up NordStream, I think even this bonehead admin is not THAT stupid.

But I also do not totally dismiss the concept. They are stupid, after all.

Yeah, I'm sure the EU is going to turn on the US and start defending themselves.

His larger point remains

Why would we create a rift between the EU and the US? That would be contrary to any globalist agenda

The US and EU have another pipeline coming out of Norway. But that really is not set to be fully functional for another 8-10 months

Again, what's the "globalist agenda"?

You can't assume anything is contrary to something you can't accurately define.

That's part of the problem. No one seems to be able to define it. Particularly the people who are against it.

Only if you think the Euros are going to kick the US out of NATO while Putin is in the middle of an invasion of eastern Europe.

Euros haven't paid for their own militaries in almost a century. I'm sure they're eager to start in the middle of an energy crisis.

Then why do all the stupid bullshite prior to invading Ukraine (twice), Georgia, etc.?

He was going to be the "bad guy" no matter what. Why create a bullshite narrative with a propagandized defense?



Hold on. You are the one suggesting that Putin is doing this for reputation. That seems absurd. If Putin did this, there is certainly an ulterior motive. But, I don't think how he is viewed is it. It's probably much more significant.

Again how does the US causing problems for the EU advance the globalist agenda? It doesn't and that's his point.

Right

To pretend that one of the NATO countries did it to him so he can play the victim

Based on the arguments as to why the US would do that, the EU is about to give up on the EU and USD and start trading in rubles.

No one is feeling sorry for Putin. You have to be a whacko conspiracy nut to believe this.

I've been asking for a definition of Globalism for going on 6 years now.

But the most common usage involves a European/American elite centered around European institutions (like the WEF).
