About

In his Foundation series, Isaac Asimov proposed that the science of "psycho-history" will help humanity understand its past, predict its future, and control its present. This channel is dedicated to exploring if "psycho-history" is indeed possible. This channel seeks to answer the following three questions: 1. What models, theories, and paradigms help us best understand world history? 2. What does history teach us about our current predicament? 3. How much of the future can be predicted?

Video Description

The Western world is facing unprecedented levels of immigration, inflation, and economic malaise. Professor Jiang argues that these are symptoms. The real disease is the selfishness and hubris of the Baby Boomers, who are the most powerful demographic in the West. They want to maintain their pension, their free healthcare, and their property values -- even if that means burning the world down. References: 1.
