As predicted the Alaska meeting went nowhere. When I tried to watch the facts, journalists were interviewing a body language expert in lieu of any factual discussion. This is one of the many problems; a constant relentless seesaw of emotions, between hope and fear, without anything constructive.
The reason that I am no longer talking about it, much less write about it is because it's pointless and aggravating and unhealthy. Everyone needs to vent about this every now and again and I am not minimizing what is going on, far from it, but even if we were dealing with the greatest government of all time I do not want to discuss it every day on every platform.
There are other reasons as well.
I have also seen people immediately react with conspiracy theories without any understanding of what any of this is about. The old saying of knowledge is power is much better than the constant doom and gloom.
While thinking of seesaws, I also thought of bullies. The kid in the playground who is ruining fun play for other kids. They've always been with us. Seesaws require cooperation, I don't think there's a single child that hasn't made the experience of being stuck at the top, only for the other kid to jump down, roaring with laughter. There are simple solutions: yell at the other kid, only get on seesaws with bouncy tires and refuse to play their game.
I'm curious; if I were to objectively explain the geopolitics behind all of this is anyone interested?
