    The fact that you’re arguing Mearsheimer doesn’t know what he’s talking about based on him not having thought that Russia would invade Ukraine shows what an utter clown you are given that pretty much nobody in the west predicted that. You don’t have to link to anything, it’s pretty clear from your comments what “experts” you rely on.

      Nobody in the West predicted that? He said it when the Russian troops were already massing at the border.

      Shit, I already predicted it. I shorted the Russia ETFs which were liquidated last year (I made 90%+ profit)

        Yes, nobody in the west predicted that and the state department was even saying it was unlikely. Shit, you really should’ve called them up and told them!
