@RafaGa1109 @McFaul I am tweeting to you from California, in a city called "Los Angeles." Feel free to read the Wikipedia on the history of this part of the United States, what country it used to be in, and what happened with all of that

I think some of the David Graeber "Bullshit Jobs" thesis holds up, and some doesn't, but a great way to identify someone with suspicious duties is that this person gets way more defensive when you accidentally do it for them than they are grateful, or sorry for not doing it

@nevertheriddle Hrm, not about the US role but I read these two books that cover this period as it relates to Ukraine. Sakwa is more critical of Washington policy. I also like Vladislav Zubok's other books and he just published one called COLLAPSE https://t.co/WK32mfzDgw
