I have analyzed the current trajectory of the United States regarding its withdrawal from the post-1945 collective security framework. The data indicates a significant shift in the planet's geopolitical equilibrium.
Following the second global conflict of the 20th century, Earth established a network of alliances intended to mitigate systemic violence. The logic was sound: collective stability serves the long-term survival of the species. However, the American administration has now
categorized these stabilization protocols as "of no importance." This is a notable departure from rational long-term planning.

A "Superpower" is defined by its ability to project influence across all sectors of the globe. By retracting into an isolationist posture, the
United States is voluntarily reducing its operational reach. The projection is clear: the transition from a global superpower to a mere "regional power" is not a hypothesis; it is a mathematical certainty. One cannot maintain an empire’s influence while discarding the
infrastructure of that influence.

To claim that isolation leads to increased national security while the global environment becomes more volatile is a fundamental syllogistic failure. It is the equivalent of removing the hull of a ship to make it lighter, only to find that the
ship is no longer capable of navigating the sea.

The pursuit of "regionalism" at the expense of global peace is a regression in planetary evolution. It is highly illogical.

They arrived in Columbia, South Carolina, and the crowds were already there.
Not shouting.
Not chanting.
Just waiting.
Some people had been there since the night before — not for a spectacle, not for a leader promising power — but to stand quietly as the monks of the Walk for Image
Peace passed through.
After so much noise, something gentle feels radical.
After years of harshness, lies, blame, and manufactured fear, people recognise peace when they see it — even if they’ve forgotten how to ask for it. Image
This walk isn’t an argument.
It isn’t a counter-slogan.
It isn’t trying to win.
It’s simply bodies moving slowly through the country, saying with their presence:
Another way is still possible. Image

I want to try and just clear a little something.
Are you feeling way beyond overwhelmed.
What is happening is happening on purpose.
The Trump regime is purposefully bombarding you everyday. For a purpose. You are living inside a perpetual threat broadcast.
Mainstream media
love it and that’s why they love Trump. Political News is not meant to inform you anymore. It’s meant to provoke fear, trigger outrage, keep your attention locked 24/7 and create a constant state of emergency.
This isn’t accidental. Fear and outrage drive engagement. Engagement
drives power and money. Your nervous system is doing exactly what it evolved to do:
“There is danger everywhere. Stay alert. Don’t rest.”
The problem is, there is no off switch built into the system unless you create one.
We cannot avoid this madness. The insanity of this regime

I want to say something to the people with smaller accounts.
The ones whose posts don’t go viral.
The ones who rarely get replies.
The ones who sometimes wonder if anyone even notices they’re here.
You matter.
Movements aren’t built only by the loudest voices or the biggest platforms. They’re sustained by people who keep showing up — reading, thinking, refusing hate, refusing fascism, refusing to become cruel just to be heard.
Not everyone’s role is to lead chants or trend hashtags. Some people hold the line simply by staying human in an inhuman moment. Some people witness. Some people refuse to look away. Some people choose not to join the pile-on.
That counts. Deeply.

I keep thinking about the Buddhist monks walking for peace — step by step — from Texas toward Washington, DC.
Everywhere they go, people gather. And many of them cry. Not because the monks are saying anything dramatic, but because they aren’t saying much at all. They’re just Image
walking. Quietly. Intentionally. Refusing anger as a language. It feels like a mirror being held up to America right now.
This is an angry country — loud, polarised, constantly braced for conflict. And yet when something gentle appears, when someone embodies peace instead of Image
arguing for it, people respond with grief. That tells me something important: beneath the shouting, people are exhausted. They are craving peace, not victory. There is a difference between being numb and being calm.
There is a difference between silence and suppression. Image

People acting like this is all new.
America caused ALL of the problems because of oil.
They first installed the dictator Shah in Iran in exchange for 40% of Iranian oil shares.
He ruled and oppressed the Iranian people for 25 years, leading to anti-American sentiment
amongst the Iranian people.
Five major American oil companies—Standard Oil of New Jersey (Exxon), Socony-Vacuum (Mobil), Standard Oil of California (Chevron), Texaco, and Gulf—each received an 8% share.
Amnesty International raised attention to the torture and brutality
if the Iranian people. This
Anti-Americanism reached a breaking point in 1979 when the U.S. admitted the deposed Shah for medical treatment. Fearful of a "repeat of 1953"—specifically another CIA-backed coup to restore him—Iranian revolutionaries stormed the U.S. Embassy and

It’s Sunday. So let me share a story with you.
The story of Nicolae Ceaușescu

He was a very powerful and corrupt leader who believed he was invincible but was ultimately turned against by his followers and his own military in Romania.
Ceaușescu ruled Romania as a dictator for 24 years, from 1965 to 1989. He established one of the most oppressive regimes in the world, utilizing a feared secret police force let loose on the streets of his country, they were called the Securitate, used to crush internal dissent.
He built a significant cult of personality and, through constant propaganda, likely believed he held absolute, unquestioned control over the nation. His regime was marked by immense corruption, including a failed oil refinery building program that led to financial ruin and
