Michael Yon | What's Really Happening in Geopolitics

In this wide-ranging discussion, war correspondent and author Michael Yon (https://substack.com/@michaelyon) breaks down the hidden forces shaping modern conflict — forces far more powerful than armies and missiles.We explore:How empires expand without invasionPsychological and cultural warfareDrugs as a weapon of destabilizationHow demographics change nationsWhy propaganda works even when you “know better”How history is rewritten in real timeWhy geography matters more than politicsThe collapse of institutions from withinThe illusion of sovereigntyHow modern wars are fought quietlyHow people are shaped without realizing itWhy power no longer looks like powerThis conversation spans Asia, the Americas, Europe, and the Middle East — but ultimately, it is not about geography.It is about:Control without conquest.Manipulation without visibility.Collapse without collapse.
