The End of the World as We Know It ?! Joe Rogan and Peter Zeihan

- Опубликовано: 8 янв 2023
- This Video is a clip from The Joe Rogan Experience #1921 where Joe and Peter discuss the dynamics of the current world and why that leads Peter to his theory, which is the world as we know it is about to end as we go into a new age. Peter Zeihan is a Geopolitical analyst and author and I believe he has some interesting ideas and statistics to back these ideas, so I decided to share it with you all. Obviously, I don’t think anyone can tell the future so take this theory with a grain of salt, just something to stimulate thought and interesting to hear out.

His observations are based on linking the historical background of current events. Something the media rarely does anymore. For example you cannot understand the Ukraine conflict unless you understand the historical narrative that has led up to it.
Yea a lot of them don't get it...I do in the name of his Majesty King Rurik... there...a little history from the last part of your comment...
Can you explain…
@@youlostthedebate he can’t because he doesn’t know it either.
@@youlostthedebate get rid of your nukes we wont advance N.A.T.O. circa 1990's?
Yes the Ukraine war is a resource war. Ukraine has the natural gas to supply Europe but they made a deal with Russia to not to develope that for now which would be in direct competition with Russia and being closer to Europe they would more than likely be the primary supplier . Now it appears that has backfired for Putin but he thought he would in the country in a week and take Ukraine's gas reserves . Taking over the grain exports was also key .
My Grandfather had 14 children and a wife that all died of influenza. Early 1900's Married again and had another 13 children including my father. Total 26 children my grandfather had
My grandfather on my father's side had: 9 kids

So?

Please don't.
The way he lays it out makes allot of since. He made soooo many points that no one in the news has even thrown a rock towards. Their education system, the lack of young people. I was in the Navy and didn't know China depended on us to protect their trade routes etc...
We’ve been the worlds police, protecting trade over the oceans and enforcing the structural integrity necessary for the petrodollar. And of course all paid by for by the crushing amounts of debt placed on the backs of future generations of Americans.

This conversation focused on "why" the switch is necessary.
This guy speaks with such confidence like everything he says is fact. He's either a great mind of our time or an incredible story teller. Probably a little of both.
The fact that he is hyping a book he wrote means he has little credibility. Maybe what he says is true, maybe it isn't, but I would need to see more credible sources before I believe his conclusions.
@@CaneFu more credible sources such as, people who write books? lol
Or a great BS artist
@@dragoncitykickboxing8537 YES, when someone is referring to his own book that he is trying to sell it is not a credible source; what don't you understand about that? Now if several experts in a related field refer to this guy's book as factual that means something. You're not too sharp are you?
@@CaneFu Exactly. Peter seem to be well educated. Maybe I been living under a rock but I didn't know of him until he came on this podcast

For anyone who just retired or is about to retire, good luck collecting social security in the future. 😫
Millennials are the biggest voting block besides boomers and they are the children of boomers.. I don’t think they want mom and dad moving in with them! Sorry GenZ your paying.. lol
It’s not as bad as you are saying -the republicans are not right about everything. If Putin looses American greatness booms to the stratosphere and so does our wealth
hahah i would say , I am thankful my parents can collect, they were lazy and probably will live forever, I been working since I was 14 on the books, that is a hard pill to swallow but, I have believed social security will be gone since i was in my 30s I am 44 now. it is what it is right, the majority of people want progressive and liberal politics, so lets keep on this path,,

We’ve been hearing that for over 30 years now.
I mean you'll either spend your time working to make money to buy food and clothing or you'll spend your time hunting and fishing and cutting trees to make a house. It's all the same fr
I remember learning about this 20 years ago in college geography
Every day is the "end of the world as we know it".
There's a ton of data behind this conversation that Peter elaborates on in way more detail here ruclips.net/video/qWyhKobyM68/видео.html
When I started working for my current employer 20 years ago, I was the youngest one. I was 30, and everyone referred to me as the young one or the new one. Now at 50, only 1 person in the department is younger than me and I’m still considered kinda new since everyone else has been here 30+ yrs and also kinda young since the others are 55+ 😂
20 years and still the new guy lol
go get me coffee newbie!
That's how it is with me & my crew.. I'm only 33 but I FEEL old, but I'm the youngest one & the rest of the guys act like I'm a damn machine lol by the time I'm 50, I doubt I'll still be working !!

@@mikefrost1312because millennials & ESPECIALLY GEN Z are the least skilled and trained generation in American history, so to keep most of the lights on the economy is severely depending on Baby Boomers & Gen X still.
I’m the youngest at my job lbs I’m 28
Fascinating - and terrifying - stuff. Taking it with a grain of salt, but everything he's saying makes sense to me. I also hear he has a pretty damn good track record at predicting these major events.
ruclips.net/video/xpouv_1N6yM/видео.html meeting the Tate Bros, trafficked edition.
where did u get that about good track record..
So why take it with a grain of salt
@@caryreneau-8392 Because I could be wrong, of course.
What has he predicted ? I keep hearing he has a bad record at predicting things lol
Good observation. I’m sure we’re going to figure it out and everything will be fine.
Everyone criticizing him, nobody refuting his points.
imagine someone tells you a story about the way things are and the way they're going to be but all his evidence is based on figures he refuses to verify. for instance the man says Putin lied to xi's face. i haven't seen a single piece of Russian news that has said they were invading Ukraine. it's possible he believes they are not. so why does this guy mind read Putin's response but also his motivations for lying? did putin call him and say, hey bro, just wanted to tell you how scared i am. maybe. also regarding population, he's correct about the population producing less offspring but then he predicts the future. predicting the future is impossible. as they say throw enough blank at the wall and something will stick. even if his prediction come true, at the point this statement was produced it is an opinion and that means he's lying. he does not know anything about outcomes. he barely understands his own existence. like everybody. if he's wrong, will we all shame him? will he admit he was wrong? why does he think because he hates children, everyone does? or at least everyone from the city does apparently.
Precisely. They’re all stupid losers.
How do you refute pie in the sky statements delivered with arrogance and USA centric thinking ?
By providing counter facts...
I'm not even saying I know what I'm talking about, or whether he is right or not. I'm commenting on the comment section. Meta commenting

my grandfather payed for 5 kids and a wife with a normal day job. good luck just not being homeless by yourself at that same job now.
Zeihan lays out a good platelet to look at the future through. New discoveries and technologies could always change things, but this is information.
What will it change for the better??? We are entering a dystopian system of enriched wealth and replacement with robots
He’s basically saying things are about to get difficult even in the US. Life will move on but not be as easy as it has been.
I'm not a betting man but I'll bet my house china won't go away this decade

Good oration doesn't necessarily mean he's educated with facts. He would be a good politician to pull the wool over your eyes. As in business, do your due diligence.
How often i heared the headline for years now ...but if i watch out of Window sun goes up n down nothing has actual changed🤭🤭
Peter’s knowledge is phenomenal. Been following him for years.
“China is going away this decade for certain” from a guy that knows nothing about China
@@dw6263 "knows nothing about China" from someone who thinks they can judge someone's credentials from a RUclips video.
@Steven Simpson-Black "Russia is going to collapse in the next 5 months..", said that like in April 🤦♂️
First of all If Peter is full of shit Joe would never invite him to the podcast. I saw a lot of people who got really uncomfortable after Peter talked about Ukraine and Russia 😂 He's spitting facts here and some people just can't accept it.
@@dvilish3632 And he hit bitcoin on the head .After the (XRP vs SEC) case gains clarity 99% of crypto will go to zero including Bitcoin. ISO20022 coins will survive. The head of ISO20022 is XRP which he mentioned on Joe Rogan. "Digital Dollar is something that makes sense. Smoothing the connections within the plumbing of financial system" and "If you digitize it then it's click, click your done" (cheaper, faster) which is XRP. Bitcoin will only survive if it's on the XRP Ledger in which it will be considered digital gold as they say.
That would be a cool name for a song. And I feel fine about it.
The Beatles - I feel fine
Has anyone ever told Peter that he sounds exactly like Jeff Daniels? 😂
That's the same thing I thought when listening to this, but in a good way because it's a comfortable tonality.

@@ronaldziegenhorn2209 you don't think so? Maybe it's just me then😂
1:30 Throughout most of history in agrarian societies the farmer and his wife would have about eight kids, two or three would die, two or three would move away, two would live nearby and one would take over the farm as the farmer ages out; slowing down, then mostly retiring, helping out when and where they can, often watching over the youngest ones to free up a set of hands.
The pop boom of our age began when medicine advanced enough to keep many kids from dying and half of women from dying of child birth. Disease made most cities mortality sinks where more died than were born.
Then we got Walmart
You can't be absolute about everything, but you can at least have the know-how as to the things that cause or contributes to current events
I wish I had this guys crystal ball.
I get a lot of y2k alarmism off this guy.
“Kids are dirty pieces of furniture “ LOL
My kids are like Farts. Sometimes I like my own but everyone else's disgusts me.
I can't but feel like there is a GREAT DEAL of propaganda with this guy
I may not agree with some of his views and opinions. However, I respect that his beliefs are based on facts.
If it truly is a fact it must be believed. To not believe in fact is living a lie.
@Justin kinda.....for ex...you can hypothesize an ideas based solely on facts yet still be wrong, specifically regarding speculations of future events.
@@LetsTalkAboutIt24-7 it was a fact that if we came out with a vaccine, people would eventually be forced to get it. We all knew the trickle down effect, everyone kept saying they wouldn’t, but it can be proven that it happened before with other forced vaccines. Then they Did force it on everyone, proving everyone who believed they would correct.
Another example would be the vaccine itself, it’s not a vaccine by definition because it doesn’t make the receiver immune, however factual that argument it was ignored. I 100% believe this guy here was on the wrong side for both of these positions. Simply because he sounds bought and sold by the government. Question who looks more able bodied, Putin or Biden? Be honest with yourself.
@John Carr I suppose that's a reasonable possibility....although humans seem to congregate like ants, piling on top of each other in densely populated areas...we reside in an extremely tiny fraction of earth's habital land mass.
He's a drama queen
Selling fear always works
Peter Zeihan is my dude, his book is next on my reading list.
He reads his own audiobook - good stuff

I grew up in USSR, in eastern Ukraine, and the mistake that speaker makes, is that somehow Ukrainian identity shaped after the fall of Soviet Union in 30 something years. That is simply not true. Ukrainian identity existed long before that, and there was always tension between the eastern and the western Ukraine as well. If this expert really knew what he is talking about, he would say that there is more than one Ukrainian identity, since Donbass region, where I grew up, always had it's own kind of identity, very distinctive from the west Ukrainian identity, to the point that after the revolution and fall of Russian empire, initially this region was supposed to become a separate Soviet republic (Donetsk - Krivy Rog Republic). This is quite a bit more multilayered than the speaker presents it, which is always the case with Western media.
Interesting !!
In the early 80's when I was told the social security money that I was paying in was paying for my parents and generations before me to retire. So that made the social security my kids would be paying in are paying for the same to retire. Back in the 80's people weren't having as many kids so eventually down the road there's not going to be enough people paying into social security to support the retired. I thought 🤔 ....... social security is set up to fail. Who thought up this bullshit scheme? It was people without foresight enough to see this was going to happen at some point or people who knew this was a possibility but didn't give a shit that it was likely to happen. So here we are. At the end of the road. Saw this coming in the early 80's.
Social Security Was originally created to collect more revenue because the government doesn’t like to increase taxes to your face cause it’s very unpopular policy😅
Social security was built on Baby Boom fertility rate and late 40s/early 50s economic growth rates.
In germany , the dude who thought up our system after the war literally point blank said that it`s going to collapse a few decades into the 2000`s....the politician in charge didn`t care about that though because he was going to be dead by then and wanted a political win at that moment...
Progressives are very proud about their fight for Social Security. They might not like the outcome but they are proud that they had the idea and the drive to force it.
People should never have quit smoking. If Americans still routinely died in their mid-60s like they did when SS was set up, there wouldn’t be a problem. Smoking cessation has raised life expectancy and bought us to the brink of financial ruin.
Bro did he just call kids dirty pieces of furniture!?! I’m dead ash
He isn't wrong though. Since people have moved to the cities, children have increasingly become a financial burden, whether people wanted them or not.

A lot of what he say’s in a theorical settings makes a lot sense, the reason why other people in his own field, within the government and various research platforms don’t always side with him is because a lot of his opinions don’t always come true or play out in that manner. It doesn’t make him any less credible, in fact a lot of what he states makes sense if you look through a narrow bottle of possibilities, and that’s the beautiful thing of it all, you can’t ever predict things 100%. A sudden shift in policy can disrupt a lot of what he’s saying just like a major disruption to crucial sectors of world economy can speed up a worse case scenario for the world, but this is not 1500s, the world has certainly change since China and a lot of this country’s have committed self suicide to put it nicely, the U.S. itself has changed quite a few times and pívot in different directions since our terrible ideas lol. What I’m saying is; humans have a tendency to self destruct, is a habit of us, huge consumption has driven this erratic behavior of ours, currency and ownership has made us more selfish if you will, we need treaties and policy to share items needed to prosper, we need law and government to guide us and prevent full out debacles of society, but the one thing that has remained throughout our history is that when time are hard, we adapt better than any other creature, we forge relationships and gather to complete a common goal but we tend to do things the hard way and criticize those who go against the flow ( capitalism ) etc. Let’s see what happens over the next 30 years which for me will crucial to determine where humanity goes for the next 1000 year’s.
Sure but what can you do against strong interest groups with nearly limitless amounts of money and influence on politics and mainstream media (military industrial complex, pharma industry etc). ?
@@szebike money is the illusion of power, every person regardless of how rich is weak in definition, humans are made out of flesh, bones and blood. They can die easily from anything at any given point, society, culture and religion where created for one thing, to control the masses, now each person can interpret the definition of that differently, some will say is the root of all evil, other will say it’s the main contributor to our success, perhaps is both, what I’m saying there’s more regular folks than the so called people in power, the sooner everyone realizes that, the sooner the elite will be afraid and perhaps share more of the wealth, is not like you can eradicate everyone in the U.S. or developed nations, there would be no economy and they know that.
@@DanyCesc83 Sure that is the case but if rich people get afraid they will turn up the heat and surpression of the masses. Even if its just an illusion people are ready to kill for "money", "religion" or "nation". Look at Russia a small group of superrich elitists at the top are surpressing and manipulating the masses and even has acces to the red button and openly bragging about it.
This is the type of guy who would walk into a operating room and tell the surgeon that he’s doing it wrong!!

"at the end of the war America abolished the imperial system and patrolled the oceans for everybody ",really,that's all news to me.The rise of nationalism and the fact that the European imperial powers were broke and the US then understandably taking advantage of those things may had some bearing on the end of empires.Did the US patrol the oceans for everybody,we were in a cold war by '48 and "everybody "wasn't in the American camp.
The us patrolled the ocean for everyone willing to take part in the global marketplace whereas the UK and other imperial powers only patrolled for their own merchants.

The amount of negative comments on Zeihan is amazing. Plenty of ad hominem vitriol, zero counter-arguments.
Peters habit of stating his subjective opinion about the future as an objective fact almost to a level of certainty, as if it’s already happened eats badly into his credibility as an open minded person
except if youve been following him for years youd know that he's been correct about literally everything. literally was talking about all of this stuff almost 10 years ago
He is generally correct on most statements but I think his overconfident persona takes away from his insight a little bit.
Hmph. Indeed!
I’m not sure about all of his predictions, but the demographic problem the world is facing is real.
One thing is true. China will fall. Badly. Soon.
Sources please! This guy I nothing more than a glorified car salesman. I had never heard so much B.S. in some short period of time! Cheers!
Check out his book. The list of sources is staggering.
Wonder if Peter's opinion has changed drastically after Russian military defeats in Ukraine?
His timeline is so bonkers
His thinking is a little flawed in not taking globalization or technological progress more into account in my opinion. I agree demographic challenges are coming in the future, but many countries are projected to have lots of youth for decades to come, especially in Africa. There could be a messy but necessary shifting of industry from Asia to Africa and shifting of services (financial, tech, etc) from the West to Asia to somewhat mitigate this. Combining this with potential for advances in AI and robotics to replace some repetitive, menial, or information-centric jobs, disaster can be averted. It will still be very disruptive tho and lots of political and economic reforms will become necessary to cope with the new realities and I'm not sure the dysfunctional American political system is capable of handling that.
they rarely talk about Africa because its so hard to predict
any young person with ambition or talent, leaves for Europe or North America
@@kylefisher1458 right, which brings a new young person to those aging countries to work. That's the point, in a globalized economy the nation of origin of young people is less important, what matters is that they just exist somewhere. Industries will go to them, and/or bring them to the industry (whichever is most economical in a particular circumstance). Africa will be producing a lot of younglings for the next few decades by many projections.
Read Peter's latest book. It's packed with topics like globalization and technology. Compelling stuff.
He's talked in detail about Africa before. The TLDR is that African countries like Nigeria will likely have a certain degree of self-sufficiency, modelling the likes of India, but they'll in no way ever be the new China (just like India)
@@quietus13 I think the factor he's considering that you're not is the unpredictability and volatility of war and catastrophe on infrastructure and subsequently general health. You're talking about things that could be, and he's talking about things that did happen and are happening to make predictions about the future. Everything he said could come true, and maybe everything you said could be a part of the solution, but I wouldn't say that what he is saying is flawed any more than yourself
too much speculation
