    Trump's AI Plan Leads to a Dystopian Future | SinoPolitik EP7

    The United States is betting its future on artificial intelligence. From the Stargate data-center megaproject to the AI Action Plan and the Genesis Mission, Washington promises an AI-powered revival — reshored industry, higher productivity, and renewed global dominance. But beneath the rhetoric lies a far darker trajectory. This video breaks down how America’s AI strategy, as currently designed, leads not to broad-based prosperity, but to extreme inequality, corporate concentration, and automation without growth.

    Neoliberalism and the Coming Political Revolt

    Neoliberalism is no longer just an economic system — it is a political liability. Across the United States, Europe, and East Asia, democratic societies are experiencing an unprecedented revolt against the establishment. Elections are becoming unstable. Young men are abandoning mainstream politics. Courts, media, and bureaucracies are invoking “states of emergency” to contain rising anti-system movements. This video explains how decades of neoliberal economics — privatization, deregulation, financialization, and austerity — hollowed out Western democracies and created the conditions for political revolt.

    The Eight Mistakes that Cost Ukraine the War | SinoPolitik EP6

    Why is Ukraine now facing defeat after years of Western support, sanctions on Russia, and battlefield sacrifices? In this video, we break down how Ukraine lost the war—not in one moment, but through a series of strategic and political miscalculations that compounded over time. From the missed peace deal in Istanbul, to the failure to fully mobilize in 2022, to the costly defense of Bakhmut and the disastrous 2023 counteroffensive, Ukraine repeatedly passed up opportunities that could have ended the war on far better terms.
