Well, that is, in fact, exactly what we have discovered. And why it was so hard to convince people of this before the evidence for it emerged, I don't know. But all you needed to realize was that some rogue element had decided that it had the right to engage in the same kind of regime change bullshit domestically that it was already feeling entitled to engage in globally.

And the rest makes perfect sense. And of course, you would get an entrenched cabal that would come up with a justification for fending off a challenge at the ballot box that it could portray as somehow a threat to American democracy. Of course, it would do that. Right. It has to be forbidden to do that. And the penalties have to be extreme for attempting it or it will happen.

Well, yes, but I also am not sure that I buy the international rationale either. And I think as much as I understand it, right, we have to be mature about what's possible in the world and what implications it has for the republic. On the other hand, to the extent that we believe in self-determination, where exactly does our right to interfere with other people's self-determination come from?

Further, I do think that there's a kind of end state for the governance structures of Earth. That what we have in the West, an agreement on a level playing field, an agreement to compete with each other by attempting to produce better stuff rather than by interfering with our competitors' ability to get to the market, that that view of the West is

is superior and it is also contagious, that it makes for a safer, more rewarding, fairer less warlike system. And therefore, there's a very good reason for people to want to adopt it.

Well, I'm not arguing that you just go and live your values. What I'm arguing is that those values are superior, that they are sticky and contagious when they take hold, and that anything you do where you compromise on the idea that that's the objective – is to get Western values to catch on across the world.

Anytime you decide you have a right to do something else, you're dragging us onto a slippery slope, okay? You will disrupt other people's self-determination, you have no basic right to do it, and it will eventually come home and be done to us.

So I don't know what the sophisticated way to make it maximally likely that other societies take on those values is, but I know that it was happening organically without us having to do terribly much. And so the real question is, how do we make that a winner so that it organically catches on, and how do we reinforce it when it does?
