byrong.bsky.social @byrong.bsky.social · 22h@londomomposino.bsky.social Interesting development in the context of your May 2025 Latin news episode about Chile’s pension reforms. It’s not a catastrophic blowup by any means. Still though, not great. 110

byrong.bsky.social @byrong.bsky.social · 15/06/2026Genuinely glad this is ending without a ground invasion. Next best thing to not doing it in the first place is getting out when it’s clear your strategic goals cannot be achieved. Not being hostage to neocons is a good thing. Putin should take notes. 000

byrong.bsky.social @byrong.bsky.social · 08/01/2026Not as aggressive as I’d prefer but probably doable. Bessent walks a fine line but seems to hold firm in the areas that really matter. I’m glad he’s Treasury Secretary. 100

byrong.bsky.social @byrong.bsky.social · 12/09/2025Once again shows that ascribing motive based on what you want to believe is unwise. Never know what is going on in someone’s head. 000
byrong.bsky.social @byrong.bsky.social · 10/09/2025Social media combined with one’s identity being tied to their political affiliation only leads to bad outcomes. Both for society and for the cognitive impairment it causes affected individuals. When you believe the other side is “evil”, anything is justified. 000
