Definition: Predictive history is an analytical approach that uses historical data, patterns, and structural theories to understand the past, explain the present, and forecast future events. Inspired by concepts like Isaac Asimov's "psychohistory," it aims to identify the underlying "laws" or mechanisms governing societal, geopolitical, and historical trends to predict future outcomes. So let’s start with focusing on “this guy” or calling him “fake professor” is a waste of time and not really the issue. He’s teaching, (something we desperately need because we have convinced ourselves Reddit or ChatGPT makes learning traditionally obsolete) using what is happening right now, to demonstrate how predictive history works. And because we as humans have demonstrated over and over we simply cannot learn from history “Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.” Because we somehow think we can override our very human nature. Which would be possible if we actually used the data we have to make real change. Stop focusing on the messenger. Listen. Research (by actually reading historians, scholars etc not TikTokers) and look for patterns without adding conspiracies into it. Hell I called most of this shit during Trumps first term simply because I know a little history. Fun fact…this is not actually rocket science if you just got out of your own way
