How to prevent this kind of 'thinking' that increases, but destroys your (part of the) world.
Try Sensing...
Don't listen to words or 'thinking', analysing etc.
But find the facts: that is all that does not come from words but has its own reality.
Those points you remember and in time you find new facts that connect to previous ones. This means you can connect the dots and see a direction. You can see where it came from and where it goes to. That gives you a method to use words to communicate what you were sensing.
Currently in Ukraine, what i have seen coming for a long time, is now near and in fact has started. Later than i thought (time is a problem for me) and in a reality that offers other physical forms in weaponry etc.
While Ukraine is being destroyed, the Donbass not yet completely liberated, but close and the Russian question is: Do we go to Kiev or do we go first to Odessa...
Well. The next dot tells me it will be Odessa, even the right General is appointed to lead the South-West army.
As i thought this will happen, the risk (NATO) is in the north: Baltics, Finland, north of Belarus Poland and Germany.
Well. The Russian ally North Korea, that had already been introduced on Russian ground (Kursk) in 2024 to learn to fight as the Russians do and to find out about the use of Drones and Kim Jong Un made a deal with Russia to help it in wars.
Well they recently provided a unit of modern missiles to fire at Ukraine and some rumours indicate that som tens of thousands soldiers were ready to go or already in Russia. They could take place in the North. And recently Aleksandr Lukashenko went to Putin and after that went to Xi and Xi promised that China and Belarus were allies and that China would act accordingly. So it could be that a large group of Chinese soldiers could appear at the right moment (when NATO was thinking of sending NATO-troops into Ukraine, north of Belarus) and small warships could go from the Arctic towards the Baltic sea (Canals) and appear suddenly there to prevent a NATO-attack there.
This would mean that in the North an attrition along a long front and the A2D2 air-defence + the Missile power from 3 Nuclear Powers would lock the frontlines. Especially when NATO organises large units of untrained and bad-weaponed soldiers along the long front.
While Russia has the free hand to invade the southern Black Sea coast (Along the Danube and Moldova) with Romanian air-force blocked from the Black Sea.
Look at a map of the region around Odessa and the position of Transnistria to see, that a fast army over flat land without villages and fortifications, could come from Zaporizhia and Dnipro towards Kherson, north of Nikolaev and closing on Transnistria, would create a Siege while all supply was cut off and even Sea nor Air could breach that.
Julian -You're describing DaBoomer generation - I know a few.
You're also confirming Biblical history - God doesn't do reform - once a society reaches a certain level of irreversible moral degradation - He just destroys it - from the society's internal suicidal self-destruction or external forces - or BOTH.
Replacement comes next - there’s always a remnant left to start anew! I don't care what seculars or churchians believe - REALITY is just that - REALITY!
From my own personal experience most Eurofags are either into hard drugs, antidepressants or some very strong coping mechanisms (excessive videogaming, porn addiction, gambling, impulse shopping or even worse).
Every society that loses agency falls into addiction. It was alcoholism in Russia in the 90s; and the Amerindians and Oz Abos since being dispossessed.
Modern Western society has always run on addiction - addictions are good profit sources for the ruling elites.
Neoliberalism and corporate empires, aka Oligarchism, has critically reduced agency in the West even beyond that baseline.
No-one in their right minds looks at the malnourished obese, badly educated, highly addicted Americans as a role model.
And yet another anti-Trump bit of Scrivening. Ignoring clear evidence that Trump’s DonRoe Doctrine has secured the West from both Chinese and Russian presence and interference-exclusion of Chinese presence in the Panama Canal, Russian military presence in Venezuela, return of Western control of Cuba and eventual access through Greenland to Arctic natural resources and an eventual global warming created access to a likely Northwest Passage-in other words a natural ocean create protective moat unassailable by any future BRIC aligned countries . Also the economic decline of the West you breathlessly predict is nearly assured over the next 5 years regardless of Trump and his policies as a worldwide Sovereign Debt Crisis will explode upon all the world’s countries leading to a crushing economic disaster that the US of all the countries is positioned to withstand. That China and BRICS nations are likely to create their own Reserve Currency to challenge the US and the West in a resulting international bifurcated financial system may challenge the West but in the near term (20 years?)does not doom the West, just creates a new financial challenge. Finally, a final confrontation in Ukraine in 2028 when the EU is suffering it’s own self-created economic downturn due to rising military expenditures and a faltering regional economy ( some predict a Depression style financial failure) will lead to a war fought solely by the EU with only munitions support provided at cost by a US otherwise excluding itself from any direct support of troops and other military involvement , as Trump has no interest in an EU neocon governmental desire to invade Russia for its$72 trillion of untapped natural resources while Russia has no interest in invading the EU and its spiralling debt.
I’m not suggesting the West is going to prevail unscathed. The EU and its failed Euro dollar experiment will be lucky to survive. The West and the US dollar will continue to successfully challenge the East in a bifurcated economic system, not collapse as the author predicts.
$40,000,000,000,000 in debt, a collapsing AI bubble that will take the entire economy with it, global dedollarisation accelerating, agriculture, transport, and energy production almost completely reliant on shrinking oil and other hydrocarbon reserves, increasing climate change disasters, and 3/5ths of the population in severe debt and loathing their political classes who they can't change because of a rigid oligarchy, and said oligarchy bent on population enslavement and reduction; says that you have a pollyanna view of matters re the USA.
Thank You, Julian...

“smiling depression”
note how Eurofags are always smiling and laughing - and it's forced as hell
