The most interesting aspect of the article is that it basically admits that the west has no idea what to do now. The whole talk of isolating Russia is just pure copium given that they’ve already tried doing that for the past two years. The opposite is happening with the west finding itself increasingly isolated globally. They can’t bring themselves to treat Russia as an equal and recognize that Russia has legitimate interests. So, their only solution has been to just keep escalating, and now they’ve reached a point where it’s either negotiations or WW3.
Indeed, because if they accepted they’d need to treat Russia as an equal, it would be an admission of defeat in their minds. They can never accept losing primacy.
Indeed, and it’s also worth noting that the US was able to do whatever it wanted geopolitically after USSR dissolved. All the people running things now formed their core beliefs during that brief unipolar period, and they never adjusted their view to match current reality. There was an implicit assumption that they just had to blow hard enough and Russia would collapse like a house of cards. Now the realization that Russia will not bow is starting to sink in, and we can see the panic growing.
Honestly, in some ways I’m glad. They cannot and will not change, and they will bring down the justice and consequences of 500 years of barbarism upon their heads for it.
I just hope they don’t take the rest of humanity down with them, and that in time even the masses of the west will dispose of the trash before it’s too late.
Pretty much. And those who aren’t high on their own supply are no better- all of them, they’re rotten to the core, and will do anything to cling to power and empire. That’s how they got to where they are, after all.

Pretty much, the big question now is if they’re willing to end the world over it.
