reading matt sleat and i'm prepared to be obnoxiously nitpicky the whole way through ex: sleat attributes too much intentionality to geuss here. G has stated repeatedly that he made a massive mistake using 'realism' to denote anti wishful thinking, and does not have much respect for IR realism
matt sleat, liberal realism, pg 12
raymond geuss, "realism, wishful thinking, utopia", pg 245

lol idk i finished and its fine. more coherent liberalism but none the more compelling for that. there's a reason the rhetoric of liberalism doesn't focus on "restrained masters" and "moderate hegemony"
