A lot of writing in that article is bad, but this takes the propaganda cake:

Russia also has the advantage of time. While Putin can lead Russia along a single strategic trajectory regardless of the length of the war, the U.S. is subject to the whims of democracy. The White House and seats in Congress change hands. Policies change as voters grow weary of supporting other countries.

It's like an onion. There's so many levels to these 3 sentences, that if I start peeling them apart, I'll burst into tears.

Incredibly out of reality. They are essentially implying that only the west is accountable to their constituents while the East can do whatever they want because the population is “brainwashed”.

Meanwhile the US state is in a constant state of governing against the interests of their own people.

they want because the population is “brainwashed”.

it seems like a form of the "asiatic hordes" theme that has been so prevalent for so long

If someone could explain the significant material differences between my 2 choices that would be great, but the west seems to be able to stick it out just as long as the elections change nothing.

Also the studies that show popular will has no impact on what the government does cries
