We live in Very Strange times!

 On one level you could say to me: "Life is always crazy! There is always something crazy going on!"

And "yes" this would be true. However, some times are crazier than others like "The Great Depression", World War II, The Korean War, The Viet Nam War, The assassinations of President Kennedy, Martin Luther King and Bobby Kennedy. 9-11, The Great Recession, The Trump Administration, Covid, and now Putin wanting to blow away Ukraine with Tanks and missiles. Maybe.

I think Putin really wants Ukraine and all the former Eastern Block Nations back as they were during the Soviet Union (likely also East Germany and Berlin as well). So, we are now into a whole new form of Putin Crazy and he is likely crazy from being so isolated from Covid. So, if thousands or millions of people die I think it easy to blame Putin's covid isolation and new insanity from this more than anything else.

However, he looks more like Hitler or Stalin or even Napoleon to the rest of the world. So, if he wasn't a pariah before he is now.

And I'm not even sure how Xi and China see all this unless it is a smokescreen to where they might be able to militarily take over Taiwan too?
