What are your general predictions for the world in 2100? How do you think future historians will look back at our time in 50 years? You've said before that you don't like correlating empire/colonialism with wealth. That there is an on going debate/narrative that the West became wealthy because it exploited the rest of the world as opposed to it's own merit. Could you delve deeper into this idea and give your take on this debate/narrative is so popular even today? Who is your favourite US president? Which domesticated animal do you think has been the most important for the development of civilization? What is the worst book you've ever been forced to read(because of school/university)? Hobbes or Rousseau? What future religions do you think will emerge in the near future? And finally: Let's say in 6 months from now you will be transported 500 years back in time to November the year 1520 against your will. You can bring with you only what you can carry along with the knowledge you have(And have acquired during the 6 months of preparation). How would you use that time to prepare, what would you bring and what would you do once you're in the past?

What do you think of the New York Times' 1619 Project? It's caused a lot of debate among historians in the past year or so, and I'd like to hear your take on the matter.

In an earlier video you said that the late Roman Empire "SUCKED". Care to elaborate?

You honestly think China cashing in on 5% of US debt would be terrible for US economy? Please explain why this 5% is so powerful for China to have.

The dollar hegemony is based more off belief than anything else, meaning that if China were to withdraw its bonds, other nations that also hold US bonds would also withdraw as the US dollar would no longer appear to be a safe investment, which is the biggest reason that they buy US bonds. It's similar to the collapse of an overvalued stock.
