Just got a video recommendation about him defending the death penalty for drug traffickers and I remembered all the western propaganda about him being “le great man” who singlehandedly raised Singapore out of poverty or some shit.

Peter Zeihan is triggered by this
Whats his deal anyway? I keep getting him recommended and he seems like a stock standard “Geopolitics expert” that talks about the amazing advantages that the investments in Ukraine have for the US (making russia lose soldiers and material without committing any american troops) while ignoring the fact that the war is a bloodbath for the Ukrainians. Also he talks like a spook so I guess thats part of why he seems like a bloodless freak.
He’s a dumbass grifter who uses geographical determinism and sophistry to tell chuds what they want to hear.
