For instance, I have an aunt who is definitely MAGA, and is flirting with Q-Anon ideas. However, she has pretty good views on the environment and animal rights. For instance, after travelling to Ecuador, she donates to some Ecuadorian land trust run by locals. However, if you start talking to her about the border or gender, she goes full Orbán.

I think that if Russia had never stopped supporting the DRA and if Dostum hadn't been a traitor, they would have ended up entering into a peace process with most of the Mujahideen and then we would never have had a Taliban takeover. If you look at the Battle of Jalalabad, the Afghan army really seemed capable of continuing to fight and defending the major cities from the Mujahideen. I think India could have supported the DRA better, since they had the same enemy, Pakistan.
