I'm coding a frustrating thing and need a break from fighting the compiler. So I check my YouTube subs and well, of course something catches my attention.

I feel exactly like this guy. The situation is so unbelievable that I can't help but keep looking for some other explanation other than rampant incompetence.

"The West and president Zelenskyy have lost their minds and become detached from reality.... I just can't help but get to the point where I think there must be something I'm missing. Because so many learned and experienced people can't be making such elementary mistakes which have potentially catastrophic results; I keep thing that; but yet, every time I look at the ground and look at the actual evidence, I can't come to a different conclusion about that. The facts scream..." -Daniel Davis watch?v=7qgLYE6BOC

After WWII, governments contained a % of ex military personnel. Now zero. Unfortunately the West's current cohort of political leaders lack the skills needed to deal with the current challenges. Things will get worse before new leaders appear.

The US population needs to get it through their heads what are the necessary skills for a good commander in chief. But unlike much of the European population, the American population is too self-absorbed (don't care about politics), or else too cynical (believes they can't make a difference so they don't care about politics) or too radical (leaving logic behind).
