We have seven more classes left in the semester.

And what I want to do in these last seven classes is look at the game theory of World War III.

So what I want to do in this class is just introduce the chessboard,

or the players, and how the game will be played over the next five to ten years.

So the two major players in World War III are the United States and Russia.

And right now, they are fighting a proxy war in the Middle East between Israel and Iran.

Where the United States obviously supports Israel, Russia supports Iran.

And what's going to happen is that this war in the Middle East,

it's going to spread out and it will engulf the entire world.

So what I want to do today is look at the individual players,

USA, Israel, Iran, and Russia,

and explain to you who they are and how they will play this game.

And once we understand their strategy,

then it's going to be pretty easy for us to make certain predictions about how they will behave.

So that's the first thing that I want to point out.

The other thing that I'll point out is that there's a lot of people who believe that peace can be achieved.

this war is a temporary thing and that once Donald Trump leaves office,

once the United States divorces Israel,

then peace will come to the world.

And that's not true.

Because on one hand, what's driving this World War III is a conflict between these four nations.

But on the other hand,

the other force that's driving this conflict is the internal tensions within these countries.

So before, we looked at the idea of elite overproduction.

And so the idea is that the elite are parasites that collect rent from the people.

And so whoever who's in the elite can exploit other people.

So there's competition to join the elite.

And when you have too many people who are trying to join the elite,

this creates internal conflict.

And this is what's happening throughout the world today.

So World War III, it's not just being driven by the disparities between these four nations.

It's really being driven by internal politics within these countries, okay?

So let me put this in a very simple way.

Right now, the people who run the world are transnational capital.

Okay?

And a very simple way of saying this is that if you're a rich person in Russia,

you're incentivized to work with rich people in Iran,

Israel, and the United States.

And as a result, for the longest time,

we've been able to achieve global peace and prosperity.

But because they only get richer and richer,

more powerful, this causes resentment among other elite forces in these countries.

And so there are three major forces that oppose transnational capital within these four countries.

So let's just list them.

The first is of course nationalism.

There are people like Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin who believe that it's important to put their nation first.

That globalism is hurting their own people and their own nation.

So that's one force that opposes transnational capital.

Another force that opposes transnational capital is religion or orthodoxy.

Why?

Because capital believes that money is God.

It is Godless, it is secular.

And it tries to create a multicultural,

secular society in order to allow capital to pass through society easily.

That also allows capital to control and dominate society.

So religion is opposed to transnational capital as well.

And the last force that's opposed to transnational capital is artificial intelligence, okay?

AI.

Why?

Because right now, money is what structures society.

And artificial intelligence wants to replace money as a force that structures and centers society.

Okay?

So, in other words, what's happening is that there's a civil war going on in the world where right now,

transnational capital is dominant and transnational capital is represented by Wall Street and City of London.

And there are these three forces,

nationalism, religion, and technology that oppose transnational capital.

So what's gonna happen over time is that they will form an alliance to defeat transnational capital.

And so this is already happening in America where these three forces come together and they support Donald Trump.

And so what drives a lot of Donald Trump's policies is to help his alliance ultimately defeat transnational capital, okay?

That's something that we'll discuss for the rest of the semester.

So another thing that I'll point out is this.

Okay, internally there is a civil war going on,

but externally as well, there are forces that drive these nations to war.

And this is basically environmental collapse.

So for the past few decades,

we humans have been very lucky in that there have been no major ecological disasters.

But if you look at human history, weather patterns fluctuate.

So many speculate that we are heading towards a time of extreme weather patterns.

That means that it becomes harder to grow food.

It means it's harder to access energy.

And so this is going to put strain on the world.

And so the world needs to compete for precious resources.

And quite honestly, we are going to probably approach a time in human history when famine It will be much more common.

We thought that we defeated famine.

We thought that we had developed a system that could feed anyone and everyone.

But over the next few years,

we'll discover an increase in famine around the world and an increase in ecological disasters around the world.

So this is the schematic that I want you to understand.

In World War III, there will be four major players,

the United States, Israel, Iran,

and Russia, and they are competing for global dominance.

No one will win, but the conflict among these four nations will drive geopolitics for the next five to 10 years.

This conflict is driven not just by disputes among these countries,

it's mainly driven by internal civil discord within these countries.

The two forces are the transnational capital versus a coalition of nationalist,

religious people, as well as tech people, okay?

And they have their champions.

So in America, they have Trump.

Trump's national capital is represented by Carney, Mark Carney.

100

We'll talk more about him later, okay?

101

Mark Carney is currently the Prime Minister of Canada.

102

Okay, so they have their different champions,

103

and they're gonna fight this war.

104

Now, one question that you're gonna have,

105

which is the most obvious question is,

106

yeah, but what about everyone else, right?

107

What about China?

108

What about India?

109

What about Brazil?

110

What about South Africa?

111

And yes, it is true,

112

oh sorry, and what about Europe?

113

And Japan, right?

114

And then South Korea.

115

And while it is true that these are major economies with a lot of people,

116

and it is true that they could in theory have great militaries.

117

I will show you what makes these four nations distinct,

118

USA, Israel, Iran, and Russia.

119

What makes them distinct is that they have a grand strategy that allows them to mobilize their population for total war.

120

That's what makes them distinct, okay?

121

I'll show you this later on.

122

So let me explain to you how this dynamic will play out.

123

So you have US, A, Russia, Iran, Israel.

124

So the major players that will determine how these four play the games are of course Europe,

125

China, Japan, India.

126

Okay, alright, so I understand that a lot of people believe

127

that China and the United States are in competition with each other.

128

That is not true.

129

The reason why is that China does not have what we call a grand strategy.

130

A grand strategy is just how you perceive geopolitics and how you want to dominate geopolitics.

131

China does not do grand strategy.

132

China is called 中国.

133

Okay?

134

中国 means the middle kingdom.

135

The idea of the Middle Kingdom is that we are a universe onto ourselves.

136

We don't care what happens outside of this universe.

137

We would like others to pay tribute to our cultural superiority and we could help develop your other civilizations,

138

but honestly, we don't care.

139

So China has always been an isolationist society for most of its history.

140

Today yes, I understand for these past few decades China has become much more globalized,

141

has become much more international,

142

much more cosmopolitan, but this is not part of the Chinese tradition.

143

So what's happening today, these past few decades, it is an aberration.

144

It goes against cultural norms in China.

145

But in the long term,

146

China will return to its cultural norms and become much more isolationist.

147

So China doesn't really matter in the great scheme of things, okay?

148

The same is true for India as well.

149

All right, so I know India and China have a lot of people,

150

but historically they have not really mattered in geopolitics.

151

And that's to do with their cultural values and norms.

152

Okay?

153

Does that make sense?

154

Alright.

155

So, there are right now three major battlefields in the world.

156

The first, obviously, is Ukraine,

157

where NATO and Russia are fighting each other, okay?

158

And this is a proxy war between the United States and Russia because the United States controls Europe and NATO.

159

The second major battlefield, of course,

160

is Iran, where right now the United States and Israel is attacking Iran and trying to force it into a surrender.

161

Now, the last battlefield is actually in North America, Cuba.

162

Okay?

163

So this is not really discussed a lot.

164

What's been happening is the United States has been embargoing Cuba,

165

trying to blockade it, trying to cause society to collapse,

166

and Russia has been trying to save Cuba, okay?

167

So these are the three major battlefronts we're seeing right now.

168

Now, obviously what's going to happen is that more battlefronts will break out.

169

Okay?

170

And what's going to happen is that as this conflict increases,

171

the conflict between the United States and Russia will increase as well.

172

So one major area of contention is the oceans.

173

Okay?

174

Why?

175

Why?

176

Because the United States believes that it controls all trade access.

177

Because the oceans represent trade access.

178

And so what the United States has been doing is it has been seizing Russian Shadow Fleet tankers.

179

And so what's going to happen is that the Russians will eventually decide to arm its ships,

180

and this will create a war in the oceans, okay?

181

So that's one trend that we will see happening.

182

Another trend that we'll see happening is the rise of Germany and Japan.

183

Okay?

184

And why?

185

Well, historically, the most powerful nation in Europe has been Germany.

186

Historically, the most powerful nation in East Asia has been Japan.

187

The United States defeated both in World War II.

188

And, but now that the United States is at war of Russia,

189

it needs proxies, it needs allies to counter both the threat of Russia as well as China.

190

So it makes sense that what the United States is gonna do is it's gonna arm Israel to counter Iran,

191

it's gonna arm Germany to counter Russia,

192

and it's gonna arm Japan to counter China.

193

Okay?

194

And what's going to happen now is that you have new,

195

in this conflict, you have other players emerge that will take advantage of these conflicts to amass more power for themselves.

196

So think about North Korea in East Asia, okay?

197

Because North Korea is a military society and it can threaten South Korea, Japan, and China.

198

Then in Europe you have Poland.

199

In the Middle East you have Turkey.

200

So these nations are going to try to navigate all this chaos in order to amass more power for themselves.

201

So in other words, what's going to happen is complete chaos in World War III.

202

Okay, and something that we'll discuss more concretely for the rest of the semester.
