Somehow just seeing "Atlantic" and the tone of the title, I guessed that the author is Applebaum and turns out I am correct.
Having said that, the reason we have this kind of hysteria is that somehow western liberalism won't stop until every nook of earth from North to South pole follow it without question. Liberalism could just basked in glory after the fall of Soviet Union but here we are.
- sharken 5y agoNot Liberalism, rather Democracy everywhere is the goal. It's only fair to question how Qatar treats human rights or how China treats anyone opposed to the ruling party to name a few examples.
- cmurf 5y agoLiberalism is better than illiberalism, unless you happen to like or depend on the subjugation of others. Many forms of Government have been tried, and will be tried in this world of sin and woe. No one pretends that democracy is perfect or all-wise. Indeed it has been said that democracy is the worst form of Government except for all those other forms that have been tried from time to time.… Winston Churchill
