I didn't watch it, I laughed at the headline as it's so absurd

His conclusion isn’t wrong, but compelling peace on a people wanting to fight for their land is a recipe for this conflict to resume at a later date

It’s a shitty war and it’s amazing just how wrong Francis Fukuyama was about stating that we were at the end of history and in a new era

Has Ukraine won yet? Russia has captured enough territory to hold referendums in 4 major regions to let the people decide if they want to join Russia or stay with Ukraine. They all decided to switch from Ukraine to Russia. (Also fun fact, these same regions have been trying to gain independence from Ukraine for many years now).

I was about to watch a documentary the other day when I realized Fukuyama was one of the "experts" and it instantly lost credibility. Still watched it, though

I am glad to see someone else mocking the End of History guy.

Yes, the people in those areas are very motivated to vote...

When someone gets in your face, they want you to swing first so you're viewed as the bad guy.

Russia swung when NATO got in its face.

Russia took the bait. Simple as that.

As we all know, geopolitics translates one to one with street fighting

Armchair expertise is surely valuable to NATO leadership

Yes. Essentially the same thing. Women do not understand this.
