Very interesting perspective from this guy, given his other lines of development here:    So when I hear a disingenuous take from Destiny, a completely biased like this:    I cringe. His position is too entrenched in sunk cost fallacy for his world views, Americanism, deep stage orange capitalism/determinism to shallow stage green values, cognitive development stunted at merely hyper logic and ADD/ADHD like mind with little moral development, personality mostly consists of sociopathy and some psychopathy, with a limited ego development, life experiences, traumas, and other lines of development in his life and societal background regressions, and his own mind having self biases and preferences from his ideological upbringing, all that projected onto John's position, it's hard to not see how Destiny is operating from a tier 1 cognition, getting triggered and defending his fragile ego.    Carefully observe the similarities and differences in quality between the two perspectives here, and see how much systems thinking was going on there. This is a test of your open mindedness and willingness to learn from a different view, and try to see this non judgmentally. Try and see Destiny's angle and John Mearsheimer's angle as part of a complex matrix of nuanced distortions about this situation between two countries. Compare and contrast fairly, and notice despite which one is superior or inferior, notice that the world will continue in whatever direction, even a direction unexpected by all sides involved.
