    Polywars | Jerm Warfare Weekly Banter

    Polywars | Jerm Warfare Weekly Banter ► Subscribe to the UK Column YouTube channel ► https://bit.ly/ukcolumnofficial Jerm, Mike, and Charles explore the concept of a "polycrisis," emphasising the interconnectedness of global and local challenges. They argue that focusing solely on macro issues like technocracy can lead to a disconnect from immediate realities, such as crime in South Africa. The conversation highlights the importance of personal responsibility and local action in addressing broader systemic issues. They stress that true resistance involves making conscious choices that impact both personal and collective well-being, rather than getting distracted by internal conflicts or external narratives. The dialogue underscores the need for unity and practical action in the face of complex global challenges. ► Join UK Column Live every Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 1pm UK time or watch previous live recordings here: https://bit.ly/UKColumn_Live ► [UK Column Website] Explore all our written and video content on the official UK Column website: https://www.ukcolumn.org/ ► [Support UK Column] Please donate to support our independent journalism & investigative journalism: https://support.ukcolumn.org/ ► [UK Column YouTube] Please subscribe to the UK Column News YouTube channel for more alternative news and independent news: https://bit.ly/ukcolumnofficial Follow #UKColumn on: ► X: https://x.com/ukcolumn ► Telegram: https://t.me/ukcolumn ► Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/UKColumnExtracts ► Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/uk_column_news

    Taiwan is about America, not China | Jerm Warfare

    Taiwan is about America, not China | Jerm Warfare ► Subscribe to the UK Column YouTube channel ► https://bit.ly/ukcolumnofficial Carl Zha examines the friction between the US and China, often framed as the "Thucydides Trap," suggesting that this narrative might be less about inevitable conflict and more about the establishment attempting to manage the reality of a declining American empire facing a rising challenger. He notes that Trump’s approach is largely performative, prioritising media optics, whereas Xi Jinping operates with a disciplined, long-term strategic focus that ignores the noise of daily headlines. The discussion also covers the historical and strategic significance of Taiwan, highlighting how it serves as a convenient geopolitical wedge for those looking to keep the region fractured. Ultimately, Zha emphasises China’s methodical efforts to secure energy independence and deepen economic integration, contrasting this with the chaotic, short-term nature of US politics, which seems incapable of looking beyond the next election cycle or the demands of its financial backers. ► Join UK Column Live every Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 1pm UK time or watch previous live recordings here: https://bit.ly/UKColumn_Live ► [UK Column Website] Explore all our written and video content on the official UK Column website: https://www.ukcolumn.org/ ► [Support UK Column] Please donate to support our independent journalism & investigative journalism: https://support.ukcolumn.org/ ► [UK Column YouTube] Please subscribe to the UK Column News YouTube channel for more alternative news and independent news: https://bit.ly/ukcolumnofficial Follow #UKColumn on: ► X: https://x.com/ukcolumn ► Telegram: https://t.me/ukcolumn ► Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/UKColumnExtracts ► Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/uk_column_news

    Alice and the Money Tree, Revisited | UK Column Interviews

    Alice and the Money Tree, Revisited | UK Column Interviews ► Subscribe to the UK Column YouTube channel ► https://bit.ly/ukcolumnofficial Alice and the Money Tree is an illustrated book that uses a simple Lewis Carroll-type style to explain complex monetary systems to as many people as possible. The short, 58-page hardback book has been widely applauded as a beginner's guide to finance and a classic in its field. In this thought-provoking interview, Mark Anderson sits down with its author, J. M. Weston Briggs, to discuss the impact the book made when it was first published, and its continuing relevance today. Briggs’ work particularly focuses on debt-based fiat currency and argues that the current system creates poverty and concentrates wealth. The author instead advocates for interest-free, debt-free currency as a solution. https://backstory.london/products/9781999848507 ► Join UK Column Live every Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 1pm UK time or watch previous live recordings here: https://bit.ly/UKColumn_Live ► [UK Column Website] Explore all our written and video content on the official UK Column website: https://www.ukcolumn.org/ ► [Support UK Column] Please donate to support our independent journalism & investigative journalism: https://support.ukcolumn.org/ ► [UK Column YouTube] Please subscribe to the UK Column News YouTube channel for more alternative news and independent news: https://bit.ly/ukcolumnofficial Follow #UKColumn on: ► X: https://x.com/ukcolumn ► Telegram: https://t.me/ukcolumn ► Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/UKColumnExtracts ► Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/uk_column_news
