No, you didn't prove that Zeihan is unreliable. For example, both Zeihan and Mearsheimer predicted the crisis in Ukraine. Zeihan also predicted the current inflation, increased Taiwan/China tensions, etc. No forecaster has 100% reliability in terms of their forecasts. But forecasting is a useful thing to do and that is why businesses, investors and governments do it. [[User:Conservative|Conservative]] ([[User talk:Conservative|talk]]) 14:25, May 8, 2024 (EDT)

::Conservapedia's Peter Zeihan article says that he gives "upscale investor conferences". Well guess what? People who are upscale investors are typically not dummy/unsophisticated investors. And Zeihan fills up these conferences.
::Zeihan gives useful demographic data and other data, but I don't regard him as gospel truth. I don't agree with everything that the ''Wall Street Journal'' says, but that doesn't mean that I am not going to read the ''Wall Street Journal'' again. That would be a stupid thing to do - especially if you are an investor. [[User:Conservative|Conservative]] ([[User talk:Conservative|talk]]) 14:39, May 8, 2024 (EDT)
