Interesting article that talks about the similarities between now and 1938, and the sort of lessons we can learn from history.

    Yes. Exactly this. Russian interests trying to expand beyond their borders because they think they deserve it. Same as all the Axis Power countries. They think they “deserve” it.

    Fuck this mentality.

      Putin has been actively destabilizing neighboring countries for months by using propaganda and funding militant pockets. He’s tenderizing his meal in hopes Trump wins in the fall.
