not short but a good read:
„use wedge issues to keep people neck-deep in their own hero’s journeys fighting each other to no real effect, and they will not disturb the status quo.“
„Legally your researchers are free, but they are conditioned by the fashion of the day….This gives birth to strong mass prejudices, to blindness, which is most dangerous in our dynamic era“
„domestic threats are manufactured, exaggerated, or imagined to justify Cold War-level surveillance and interdiction. Opposition leaders are prosecuted and, when possible, imprisoned.“

different needs are important at different times.
There is also a bias in the method of observation:
If you challenge someone’s desire to be free in a conversation he can just give a shit about and do what he wants anyway completely consistent with his line of thought.
If you challenge his capabilities or work you attack his value for (and consequently in) society.

This may age poorly, but I suspect that Pakistan‘s attacks on India are only a means to a totally different aim. Like an internal struggle.
The way it started. The super evil way Pakistan presents itself. The nuke threats. The fake news about war events it provides. The immediate breaking of the ceasefire.
It‘s like they want to be seen as aggressive and under external pressure.

Tax on „wealth“ or taxation when emigrating (already somewhat in place in Germany for ETFs) would be the big red flags. Streets are still pretty safe, I got a job even when promoting is strictly coupled on diversity, and political oppression is mostly on politically active people.
But emigrating would be too expensive for me. USA costs 5 million and El Salvador 1 million dollar. Too old for a reasonable chance on a new job. Maybe Hungary is the next best option, but still EU and not big enough to house all EU-refugees.

Trump broke an alliance that lasted almost a century in a couple of days. He lied, he humiliated his former ally publicly, and praises a mass-murdering war criminal. He refuses to warn his former ally when bombers are on their way to kill civilians in their homes.
This might not count as treason in front of a court. But the amount of trust and goodwill that the USA have lost this winter is hard to overestimate.
The American empire collapsed. It‘s a normal state now. A big and powerful one, but an empire no longer.
