I joined Hrvoje Morić on Geopolitics & Empire to discuss the increasingly chaotic state of global geopolitics, the decline of the West, the rise of China, the collapse of India, and the cultural consequences of mass migration.

In this discussion, I argue that the conflicts involving Iran and Ukraine are symptoms of a deeper breakdown in the global order. Inflation, energy insecurity, surveillance, and geopolitical realignment will affect everyone, but they will hit the Third World hardest.

I also explain why I remain deeply pessimistic about India, why I believe China is far more functional and misunderstood than Western media suggests, and why individuals should diversify their assets, bank accounts, brokerage accounts, and residency across jurisdictions.

Watch the full discussion below:

Key Takeaways

• Global geopolitics is entering a prolonged period of chaos.
• Iran, Ukraine, energy, fertilizer, and inflation will hit the Third World hardest.
• India is not rising; it is corrupt, dysfunctional, dependent, and deindustrializing.
• China remains one of the most misunderstood countries in the world and is likely to continue improving.
• Mass migration imports cultural habits, political instincts, and social pathologies into the West.
• Individuals should diversify internationally through assets, bank accounts, brokerages, and residencies.
