We read from and provide commentary on portions of the book "The Future is History: How Totalitarianism Reclaimed Russia" by Masha Gessen, with a focus on Alexander Dugin and his belief in a "greater Russia," and how it figures into the goals and policies pursued by Vladimir Putin. We also discuss the importance of maintaining a nuanced outlook when it comes to Russia/Ukraine as well as in general.
