Probably. I haven’t clicked on that link but that sort of thing is to be expected from this source.

When i recommend a piece i generally vet it for that sort of stuff, and if there is any problematic content i try and add a warning. But i don’t vouch for other things the same author may have written.

We should always be aware of the bias of the media we consume, and when reading analysis by conservative leaning authors like this one, caution is advised. That’s part and parcel of critical media consumption, knowing what we can take that is of value from a piece of media and what to discard.

Yeah I read both and the article they’re critiquing, just pointing it out since I read their second article last and was put off

Yeah, the rich in the west know their hegemony is declining, so they’re starting to push fascism as much as possible.

Whether US ruling class decides to consolidate its power on what remains of the empire or kill us all in a nuclear holocaust is the big question. It’s encouraging to see that recognition that US hegemony has come to an end is starting to settle in.

interesting, we’ll see if they take the coexistance road. Leaving Taiwan, peace in Ukraine and abandoning Israel are the 3 key issues rn that would signal that.

My money is on no, on all three counts. They won’t stop antagonizing China over Taiwan, they won’t let go of project Ukraine, and they certainly won’t abandon their most precious neocolony. These people have no reverse gear. All they know how to do is double down.

I’d be happy to be proven wrong though.

A paper tiger cannot change its stripes, the USA will never accept the fact that it is a laughingstock to most of the world.

Geopolitics

Create post

The study of how factors such as geography, economics, military capability and non-State actors affects the foreign policy of states.

All articles will require a short submission statement of 3-5 sentences.

Use the article title as the submission title. Do not editorialize the title or add your own commentary to the article title.

In this community we encourage long, in-depth submissions. Submissions should not be news articles that merely provide quick updates on current events; instead they should include background information and an explanation as to why the events they describe are occurring.

Submissions should not be about an individual country’s domestic policies. Instead, they should be about relationships between different countries and/or relevant international organizations. Things like breakaway politics are permitted in this subreddit, as they are relevant to and could affect the geopolitical system.

Submissions are strongly encouraged to come from reputable sources. When posting from a lesser known source, please check whether the authors have some sort of qualification demonstrating they are knowledgeable of the subjects they discuss.

Sources that include (or solely contain) maps, statistics, or other multimedia (videos, interviews, primary sources, etc.) are permitted and even encouraged in this subreddit.

We encourage discussion and welcome anyone to pose hypotheses and ask questions. We allow self-posts.

We encourage comments to be cited.
