»#Mearsheimer: Der Grund für diese Kriege war die Ausdehnung der Nato – nicht Putins vermeintlicher Imperialismus.«

Warum interviewt der Spiegel in 2025 noch so einen Clown?

Thank you for pointing out another propagandist. Blocked him too after reading some of his output.

I watched the #mearsheimer #JefferySachs panel. It was garbage. Chomsky or anyone who's followed his work would hose them in a minute. Sadly, even their sanitised views on US hegemon seem to be too "radical" for a majority of Americans; certainly too radical for Washington!

#USA has a "projection" problem. It projects on everyone what it actually is -- a bully in search of absolute power, and complete disregard for everyone else, constantly seeking excuses to bomb the world into submission.

'This video talks about the war in Ukraine. I show two videos--the first is from the Russian Media Monitor and the second is of professor John Mearsheimer explaining how he thinks the war will end. I use this to explain my perspective.'

In today's #vatniksoup, I'll introduce an American political scientist, John #Mearsheimer. He's best-known for his theory of offensive realism, for his pandering to authoritarian regimes, and for ignoring sovereignty of independent countries.

This piece by #Mearsheimer on the war in #Ukraine is poor. Instead of pointing out *where* he is wrong (there is too much), I think it might be more productive to offer a few points about *why* he is wrong:

a) Mearsheimer thinks he can do meaningful analyses of international politics without country specific expertise.

b ) Because of a) he thinks this conflict for #Russia is about national security and not regime security.

@anderspuck

Did you already read Mearsheimer's new piece? What is your take on it?

IMO he underestimates russia's internal struggles (mutiny, purging of Generals, economic decline). And overestimates russian military capability (basically assumes that russia will get also Dnipropetrovsk, Kharkiv, Mykolaiv, and Odessa at some point in the near future...).

I kind of feel I wasted my time reading this.

John #Mearsheimer parla con grande competenza dell'#Ucraina. Vale la pena ascoltarlo e magari tradurlo.

It’s been a real banner week for famous senior public intellectuals on #Russia and #Ukraine. First #Mearsheimer again: https://mastodon.social/@mcopelov/109928174211067199. Then #Sachs again: https://mastodon.social/@mcopelov/109942831375244683. Now #Allison again. Per Branislav Slantchev:

Good piece by ⁦@gideonrachman⁩. My earlier take on #Mearsheimer shortcomings.

re: #Ukraine
I have been told 1000 times by Lefties in the last 8+ months, 'watch Mearsheimer!' – I did, and I am like 'Meh?!, ok, whatever'

(Below) Mearsheimer today with Hungary's right wing PM Viktor Orbán

Such principles and such a nice guy, eh? FFS.

Bait and bleed è una strategia militare descritta dal teorico delle relazioni internazionali John J. #Mearsheimer nel suo libro sul realismo offensivo, The Tragedy of Great Power Politics (2001). L'obiettivo è indurre gli stati rivali a impegnarsi in una lunga #guerra di #logoramento l'uno contro l'altro "in modo che si sanguinino a vicenda", mentre l'adescatore che ha incoraggiato il conflitto rimane in disparte e mantiene la sua forza militare.
