Opinion | Death by Nationalism?

"The game of conquest—the game of war, and all that comes with it, e.g., the dehumanization of most of humanity, the indifference to its toll on the planet itself—has been going on for thousands of years."

“The irresolvable dilemma facing Western leaders is that this is a no-win situation. How can they militarily defeat Russia, when it possesses 6,000 nuclear warheads and its military doctrine explicitly states that it will use them before it will accept an existential military defeat?” The consequences of war and dehumanization always, always, always come home. There are no “nations,” except in our imagi-nations.

    you can’t be against war and be pro putin.

    that’s like being against war but pro american exceptionalism.

      you can’t be for Hillary or Joe and be anti-war, either

        Too true. Hillary would’ve expanded the militarys presence in Afghanistan. Sorry if the Taliban is oppressive, but they won too quickly to be unpopular.
