Talk Tuesday: Fallen Empires

Korean Peace? Let's assume that this is possible for the moment. From what I've read, the prime driver on North Korean coming to the table is the damage they've done to their own country through their nuclear testing.

Which is suggestive of something very scary.

Let's compare. The British Empire wasn't interesting in granting colonies freedom until their empire began to disintegrate on its own. The Soviet Union didn't loosen its Iron grip until that grip was rusting.

Empire doesn't negotiate until its dying.

And given the damage the Hungry Empire is currently doing to the biosphere, that may be a very scary prospect to consider.

And we, as individuals, are complicit in this. Of course, Empire does its level best to make complicity seem like the only possible course of action. But it isn't.

There are other paths. They are hidden. They are hard to find. But they are there.

Find them.
