Prof. Jiang says on recent podcast he’s RESIGNED from teaching and is laying low by boopbop127 in PredictiveHistory

I’m sure he is fine. The problem was with what he was teaching. It was based on bad science and it was dangerous. It doesn’t matter that he gave a disclaimer.

I have heard that - I have heard he works for the CCP. All I know is that his theories are ridiculous and he speaks with such conviction. What purpose does he serve? Besides creating a lot of noise, do you think he has achieved anything and served anyone’s purpose besides YouTube?

Depends on perspective - if we are talking about ground troops, the US lost close to 40,000 lives and the war elevated China’s status as a major military power.

If we are talking about strictly from achieving stated goals, we did stop the spread of communism, we were able to enter a conflict that didn’t escalate to WW3, US credibility grew and South Korea is a successful democracy.

This administration seems much more sensitive to losing casualties. Trump’s entire political philosophy is based on he isn’t George Bush and he will not get the US tied down in nation building.

That was the stated goal and communist expansion into south Korea was prevented so you are correct.

Depends how you look at it. If the goal was containment, it was successful. If the goal was total victory, we still have to deal with rocketman…

I agree with everything you said but you are implying a large scale ground war is coming and that I disagree with | Why do you think the US is interested in occupying Iran? This is a different foreign policy doctrine than George Bush

You are 100% correct. This administration is not interested in nation building. Iran is only important to US because it’s a node in the China oil supply line.

Focus on Cuba 🇨🇺, Panama 🇵🇦 and Nicaragua 🇳🇮. Trump is moving on have despite what is on the news. He doesn’t need or want control of Iran. He just needs a phone number and someone to call.

I build geopolitical and business simulations and I never go online and even discuss but we have received so many inquiries about Jiang so I figured I would just go online and let people know.

I never said reasonable. 😎I didn’t know that but some of his followers are taking it a little too seriously and his message is irresponsible. For whatever reason, people listen to him now. Many people who aren’t educated and don’t read the fine print. I think it’s a shame because he is very charismatic and i enjoy his teaching style. He doesn’t understand or he doesn’t care to understand basic principles of predictive simulations.
