Zeihan mister “linear extrapolation with no adaption over decades”. So i guess you are an expert in everything too.
ps. well it could be because Putin decided to do so and noone will ever really know what happened in that head or what information he was presented at the time
Putin did it because he’s an abusive dickwad who thinks it’s his god-given right to control Ukraine. That’s it. That’s the entire explanation.
People keep trying to rationalize his actions, come up with some more respectable reason, because there’s no way this much death and suffering could be happening because one guy is an entitled, controlling piece of shit, right?
But in reality, that’s how fascism always works. It’s always been how it works. Why’d the Nazis invade Europe? Because they were entitled, controlling pieces of shit. Why’d the Soviet Union refuse to let the countries they liberated after WWII go? Because they were entitled, controlling pieces of shit. Why does China want to annex Taiwan? Because Xi’s an entitled, controlling piece of shit.
Well thank you i really dont give a f*ck what you think the explanation is. You see my entire point is that you cannot know because you do not have access to his thoughts and frankly i dont care. It seems you are the same quality of person as Zaihnan someone that proclaims stuff with a tone of authority just expecting others to swollow your crap without reason.
I’m sorry if I came off as confrontational or insulting, that couldn’t have been further from my intentions. Absolutely did not mean to start any kind of drama / flame war, just sharing my opinion in what I thought was a friendly way. Hope you’re having a lovely day, wherever in the world you may be! :)
Be nice…
