Not into sports, but I think the NFL and sports betting companies will get caught rigging games

I see handball growing in popularity in the short term becoming a more high action less tactical alturnative to soccer.

Kickball and Softball about the they are my favourite from childhood but in Poland, I don't it poplar like the states

You can't compare the modern economy to the 1950 economy where most countries are agrarian or wrecked by war

what about israel

Americas is about to go way back up as a total %.

China and east Asia populations on free fall, europe population declining, africa and Middle East positioned for famine and war, etc…

North America is the island of civilization that shines bright when darkness consumes the old world.

Besides that we just nailed down our tactics to grow and are kicking it off ASAP. Goal is 100k users in 3 months

0. Streaming to youtube and all other socials simultaneously and implementing various tactics to drive the audience to pearl. We’re testing our primary tactic with the recording of the last stream that’ll be posted sometime soon once an update goes out.

1. For past 2 months we’ve been doing hardcore backend infrastructure updates so we can handle large numbers of users without errors, bugs, crashes. Database and similar upgrades.

2. Now we’re handling more user facing infrastructure.

Sprucing up email updates so you’re noticed when a livestream starts or is posted, when WIAH interacts, a digest email of community activity.

In addition, banners/pop ups/advertisements of paid functionality during livestreams and after. Foundational things

3. What we call reverse flow for creator-fan DMs.

When users sign up or at other important junctures, they’re asked what questions they have for WIAH they can directly DM him.

When WIAH replies, he’s default set so his answers are posted in the newsfeed and the fanbase is email notified about it in the digest emails.

The goal is to get as many users to engage and interact as possible rather than being just watchers, and then to use the creator’s replies to populate the newsfeed with content that can be used to get users to visit Pearl more, therefore increasing retention and engagement

4. Livestream event structure.

To have different formats for livestreams and code built to facilitate them. AMA with upgrades, fan round table where some small number of fans pays to be on stage with WIAH for the whole stream, and creator roundtable where other youtubers are on stage with WIAH talking

The Bosnian War was a failure of Tito to integrate Serbo Croatians into a common ethnic identity

it has started with covid, some might say it even begun with 9/11

The spark has been lit and heading down the fuse but its not reached the powderkeg itself yet.

Yes

I think he touched on a few exsamples of this like Didnt he mention all off the modern territory of kuwait didnt exsist until kinda recently?

I actually consider myself quite well educated on this subject and not super much has changed

Damn

They are concerned about constant outside threat which motivated their whole society and they are a comparatively young country which I'm sure helps as well.

I don't have the statistics at hand, but it's the Hasidic community. There's a loophole that anyone studying the Torah gets a support stipend and doesn't have to serve in the military. One sect has used this to be permanently out of work (and out of the Army) and doesn't believe in birth control. So, they have like 10 kids and live off government subsidies. Needless to say, it drives the other 90% of the country crazy, but because the government coalitions are so broad, nobody can afford to piss off the Hasidic PMs.

1. I imagine because the Israelis are still very religious (due to the fact that they are literally surrounded by blood thirsty psychopaths who have an insatiable desire to brutally genocide them which probably makes remaining united basically a necessity for survival. I read a study a while back that stated that social hardship heavily correlates with high levels of religiosity so it would make sense why the Israelis are able to achieve a birthrate of 3.01 births per woman as an industrialized nation. It’s also interesting to note that most industrialized nations aren’t in such a volatile geopolitical situation as Israel. That situation being outmatched in pretty much every metric that is relevant in warfare) and nationalistic. If you went to Tel Aviv today and asked random Israelis if they are proud of their country and if they believe that they are superior to the Palestinians, they would say yes to both of those questions pretty much instantly which suggests that the Israelis are united by a strong pro-Jew ideology (Judaism), goal (the creation and preservation of a Jewish state) and national identity (Israeli identity). This matters because it means that Jews will subconsciously as well as consciously do things like reproduce because it is an obvious necessity for their survival irrespective of their economic/financial situation.

2. The Jews have a culture that promotes education, responsibility, survival, the promotion of efficient hierarchies and social/financial unity which makes the Jews very smart and innovative (be it technologically, socially, demographically etc).

I think it is possible, but I doubt it. The century of humiliation has roused Chinese nationalism and if European nationalism is roused they'll start up against each other, not the rest of the world, and I think America and Russia will be Rome and Persia to their Greece if that makes sense. Something really dramatic has to happen to pull Europe out of decline.

I don't think so. I don't see asian powers doing doing to Europe what they did to China. The only way for Europe to come back is through a united continent (EU or not) because the countries are too small to compete with continent size countries and hundred of millions of people per country
