🇷🇺🇺🇦 - Why wokeness doesn't work as a policy-making tool.
You have one guy arguing over the obvious fact that coexistence with Russia is necessary to avoid nuclear war, which is well established fact since decades.
Then, you have another guy that says "But you lack emotional awareness!" and tries to claim the higher ground. Not a journalist from some local MSM, not a politician from some center-right party: an academician.
That's why the West is losing: its trading reason for emotion. And emotion leads to bad policy making.
That's because people in charge are people from the middle class with comfort but little actual historical knowledge, and those type of people love having absurd ideas they know doesn't work because they have the luxury to. Take how middle class bourgeois in France always oppose any effort to increase security for the everyday man as an example.
The problem is that even them would be impacted in case of nuclear war. But I guess that would respect their emotions... right?

Given the pro-privacy stance of the platform, it’s taken as a given that it’ll be used for a number of reasons, not all of them good. And Telegram has been attached to a fair few scandals related to terrorism, sexual exploitation and crime. Back in 2015, Vox described Telegram as “ISIS’ app of choice,” saying that the platform’s real use is the ability to use channels to distribute material to large groups at once. Telegram has acted to remove public channels affiliated with terrorism, but Pavel Durov reiterated that he had no business snooping on private conversations. Some people used the platform to organize ahead of the storming of the U.S. Capitol in January 2021, and last month Senator Mark Warner sent a letter to Durov urging him to curb Russian information operations on Telegram. Stocks dropped on Friday afternoon, as gains made earlier in the day on hopes for diplomatic progress between Russia and Ukraine turned to losses. Technology stocks were hit particularly hard by higher bond yields. As the war in Ukraine rages, the messaging app Telegram has emerged as the go-to place for unfiltered live war updates for both Ukrainian refugees and increasingly isolated Russians alike.
