    The fundamental flaw of liberal realist analysis like Mearsheimer is they don't or refuse to understand class struggle, so a lot of their analysis boils down to conceptualizing countries on a map as differently colored geometric shapes fighting against each other. They have no way of properly analyzing internal contradictions within a given society outside of ethnoreligious divides, which they mostly do so by dividing a geometric shape into smaller geometric shapes and understanding ethnoreligious tensions through the interactions of those geometric shapes.
