This title does sum up the manner in which our world is being guided into an apparently chaotic and uncertain but very likely not at all tranquil future.

 reviews the European situation (although he apparently wrote this before Boris told us all to pay the higher living costs "for the Ukraine").

Wherever you look (honourable exception: Viktor Orbán), much as they did in response to Covid, politicians are banding together to punish their peoples, this time for Russia's activities in the Ukraine.

Oh wait (nearly forgot) and to punish them for ... well, living and breathing and creating CO2, in contravention of UN Agenda 2030, i.e.: for just being human.

"It makes no sense"

Well, that rather depends upon the assumptions you use to assess their motivation.

Still, that paragon of effective and popular governance, the EU, is certainly convinced that Ukraine has what it takes to hurl the Russians back (eventually), and Agenda 2030 is a WEF-UN approved project and absolutely a GOOD THING, so we will just have to grin and bear it.

Won't we?
