Counterbalance Podcast | Exploring Our New Worldview: "Real-Realism"

After internal dialogues revealed that the team was feeling a bit "strategically rudderless," hosts Mike Doran and Peter Rough sit together to launch a new thesis for Counterbalance. Together they explain what's wrong with foreign policy "experts" today and why an interest-based foreign policy is needed over the dominant, but flawed, values-based outlook of today's elites. They're calling this new school of thought "real-realism."

These people are well aware of how insane they are.

[@bertranbelzor9037]

Yes, they are. And they're convinced that the World belongs to them. Like when they talk about National interest, they're referring to Natural resources, particularly in Africa, that they swear to control and steal by any means necessary.

[@MrSpermstar]

It's interesting that you guys are stressing the importance of outcomes driven foreign policy but choose to totally overlook the simple fact that pumping more and more resources into Ukraine theater leads to continued strengthening of Russian military and anti-west powers in other theatres of the world. Feels like a giant blind-spot.
