    I didn’t read a single thing from that that I didn’t already get, what I’m arguing is that American control, is not what is best for the planet and arguing against dugin is just our own version of espousing similarly flawed beliefs.

    this part especially seems to point the flaws in his argument, but so are the same flaws found in our own march to go to war with Russia.

    “The battle for the world rule of Russians” has not ended and Russia remains “the staging area of a new anti-bourgeois, anti-American revolution”. The Eurasian Empire will be constructed “on the fundamental principle of the common enemy: the rejection of Atlanticism, strategic control of the U.S., and the refusal to allow liberal values to dominate us.”"

    In the march to war, the call to be cautious and settle things peacefully is always rejected. But I’m not arguing for that I want the Ukraine to have self determination, I just don’t think we should think we get to do it because it serves American interests, we should do it because it is the right thing to do. And we should take care of Healthcare, education, housing, ubi, etc.
