I don't know how you all are able to read stuff like this.

I acknowledge that articles this like that have valuable bits and pieces in them. But this guy just goes full terminal great man theory in the first paragraph and I have to get up and walk around a bit after reading that.

It is painful no doubt, but I find the value in reading these articles isn't in their analysis. They give a glimpse into the mindset of western elites and the policies they intend to pursue. Seeing how they view the world is important for understanding how they're likely to act going forward.
