resurrecthobbes asked: George Friedman. What do you think of him if you know who he is? Have you read any of his books? React.

meh, STRATFOR.  I don’t have a strong opinion. I’ve not read his books as thinking about the extreme future doesn’t interest me. The cynic in me speculates that he likes to shoot up the veins of cash flush parts of the world with fear/adrenaline over ZOMG (water, Arabs, Japan, NUKES!!!) the future to enrich himself- which, I’m not gonna hate a player, and he’s neither the first or worst really in this respect.

username: the conjecturer probably has a much more detailed opinion.
