That’s the most defeatist thing I’ve read from you, by far.
I didn’t even watch any of it. I don’t need the cringe.

I’ll say this however, countries have to embrace a ‘me first’ approach in the geopolitical sphere. Every country does it.
Guyana’s voting record in the UN for a small nation is commendable at least recently but one has to know limits and opportunities.

I recall a few years back there was a discussion here on the value of politics and man's ability to change for the better.

I quoted Solomon's statement that there's nothing new under the sun...posters came at me...one in particular, Kay, said man is moving ever closer to peace and the race issue and issues with hatred and forms of bigotry has improved tremendously.

I wonder what they all are saying now.

You don't ever see them posting on these topics.

How the state of the World looking now?

Still think the World is drawing closer to uniformity and peaceful existence and inclusion?

Two things even disparate things can be true at the same time. In some ways the framework for peace in the world
is better than it has been many times prior Man will be man yes but remember Trump if even not MAGA is temporary.
We don't know what will come next though...better or worse

That's what everyone says....temporary.....yet regardless of the framework for peace of which you speak and prospects that seem to appear, why does things always devolve again into the very same chaos that repeats itself?

Problem is....how did he get there? Who put him there? Why are so many eager to go away from this peace and understanding?

Why is this tyranny seem so poised to reclaim and deconstruct every seeming advancement made? Supreme Court is involved....are they going away in 4 years?

The precedent they set, is that going away in 4 years?

The fallout and mistrust, is that going away in 4?

Does pain disappear after 4 years? Is that what human history has taught?

altho i am not too sure about uniformity, I will answer the rest of the statement by saying yes

i often speak about the Age of Aquarius

as we are entering that age and leaving Pisces, there will be upheaval, disasters, calamity and pure evil as a dying age comes to an end

we can see that epitomise in the dying embers of the once great American Empire

and yes, you are right, there is nothing new under the sun, so if you look at history you will discern that all empires at their end, flail about and become desperate to hold on to what they thought was their manifest destiny.

they will invade other countries, fight, and come up with all sort of nonsense to try to preserve themself. see Rome and England

but no one can stop the times and instead of negotiating a peaceful decline with their citizens and the rest of the world dying empires rent themselves apart by internal or international strife

it is my conclusion that Aquarius will witness a great awakening where humankind will strive to be a better version of itself, and the world will look for a better co existence between countries and people.

but there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth between the end times and the Age of Aquarius

and that is the word according to Sudden

Thanks for letting your imagination run wild....am I supposed to take this seriously?

You are proposing that intelligent life is determined b non intelligent elements?

Try again....without the unproven imagination.

Faith, dear sir, is rooted in religious belief....it originates with those who believe in God.

But more importantly, it is one of the few words the Bible actually provides a definition for.

Along with Holy.

I wonder why that is....?

Thanks for explaining what faith means to you

But it doesn’t mean you don’t suffer from a lack thereof.

I wonder if Maduro is an agent of the Empire?

A few well-timed excursions into Essequibo reminds Guyana of their shortcomings.

Both countries' oil interests will not want any fisticuffs, to disrupt the oil flow.

You know it’s all about selling the weepons to a country that found a good steady flow of dollars.
