That makes a lot of sense. Until you consider that around Winter solstice, Christians don’t celebrate the resurrection, yhey celebrate the birth. How do you explain that disconnect?

That’s for Spring (rebirth, Easter), not Winter.

Christmas is for Winter, it celebrates the birth of Jesus Christ. It came from Saturnalia, probably the most important holiday of Roman society.

There might be a reshuffle in politics. Iran, Cuba, North Korea, and Venezuela, are traditionally allies of Russia and opponents of the US. Something will have to change, I believe.

We might see Armenia align with the US and aforementioned countries, if Turkey stays aligned with Europe. Which will likely be the case, I believe.

China is the wildcard here. I can see them align with either camp.

I think Australia won’t have to choose. They might stay somewhat neutral.

Not really adding, it’s just a comment on the topic: I’ve always been confused by mass media saying Kamala Harris is black. There seems to be something about her physical features that mark her “black” in the eye of US Americans.
