This was a great and enjoyable read. I think whoever runs this substack ought to consider renaming, as the name "The Upheaval" kind of conjures the image of some far out conspiracy website, like "A Storm Is Coming" or the like. When in reality, it's some really solid geopolitical and historical analysis.
- thematrixturtle 4y agoThe site's logo is the Chinese/Japanese character 乱, usually glossed "disorder" or "chaos" but often larger in scale than the English words imply: many events we'd call civil wars are 乱 in Japanese and Chinese. Which seems appropriate: the blog post here is forecasting some serious geopolitical turbulence that's about to hit economic turbulence, with unpredictable but highly likely unpleasant consequences. And it doesn't even mention a potential civil war (乱?) in the US, which is starting to move from unthinkable to merely unlikely.
