Context for the guy’s frustration: this isn’t his first rodeo; I’ve seen so many videos of this guy talking to people trying to tell him he’s being genocided and the very place he lives is going through that genocide.

You have to go to Yandex to find this video about the usa using them to attack China.
Who is this guy just saying things out loud??? Does he have any power or just some guy who’s willing to give up the game?
Military guys love to do the university speaker circuit and talk about how smart their strategies are. Many are “history buffs” that think of themselves as iconoclasts for just not being racist about “enemy” capabilities and instead appreciating them and so they go and share their views to build up cred and shop for some kind of fellowship with a “liberal arts” department.
So just some military guy willing to give up the game for fame, but likely isn’t speaking from some deep knowledge but instead just from his assumptions which happen to align with imperial interest.
Thanks for the explanation though! Appreciate it being so well described
It’s usually retired ones where they don’t think there are any remaining opsec issues - at least not ones in their domain. They don’t necessarily like the CIA types or NED types that would be pissed.
he forgot to mention the CIA heroin bake sales
