    Yeah, that’s the problem with Putin and his crew of useful vatniks.

    They’ll put a gun to your head and steal your house then blame you for not negotiating it away for free.

        I’m glad you agree, and that any war started by a capitalist oligarchy, but especially a blatantly imperialist land grab, should be opposed with the full force available to the people, in solidarity with both the enslaved soldiers of the aggressor nation and the working class of the defender, who will, as always, bear the brunt of the horrors unleashed by oligarchal greed.

          Weird how the chief of NATO disagrees with you , I guess you know something he doesn’t:

          The opposite happened. He wanted us to sign that promise, never to enlarge NATO. He wanted us to remove our military infrastructure in all Allies that have joined NATO since 1997, meaning half of NATO, all the Central and Eastern Europe, we should remove NATO from that part of our Alliance, introducing some kind of B, or second class membership. We rejected that.

          So he went to war to prevent NATO, more NATO, close to his borders. He has got the exact opposite.

          https://www.nato.int/cps/en/natohq/opinions_218172.htm

          I’ll never cease to be amazed how western propagandists managed to convince people that Russia is out on a mission of imperial conquests. Imagine believing that the largest country in the world, with a low aging population, is trading people for territory.

            The invading with tanks and waves of Nazi mercenaries and conscripts is what tends to give that impression.

                I see, I see. The existence of a single Nazi in a country is justification for invasion, and it’s absolutely impossible that nationalists will join the army of any truly just nation when it’s being invaded.

                Bad news for literally everyone, I guess we’re just gonna do posadism now and trust in the Great Divider, the Bringer of Light to purge the filth that deserves death (and everyone else)

                  That’s a weird way to say that literal fascists run the government and the military, and that they’ve been doing ethnic cleansing in eastern Ukraine, but I guess we’ve already established that you’re an utterly dishonest person. Bye.

            Do you understand that it’s because of Russia that NATO is expanding? The countries neighboring Russia are afraid of what is just now happening in Ukraine?

            For smaller countries such as in baltics joining a defense alliance is the only way. They’ve been illegally occupied by Russia before, they don’t want that shit back.

              I understand that this is the narrative NATO propagandists like to sell. The reality is that the governments are captured by US politically, and largely don’t represent the interests of the people. This is why there’s massive political unrest all across Europe now, including the Baltics. But you keep on peddling the bullshit while you can.

                You have no fucking idea what you’re talking about, just parroting whatever the fuck you heard from radio sputnika.

                Yes, USA has a ton of influence over Europe, and people are starting to understand it, but we wanted to join NATO DESPITE IT. There’s really no other option.

                The opinion in Finland and Sweden was for long time largely negative regarding joining NATO, but after the Russian invasion in Ukraine in 2022 people started demanding it.

                  I must’ve missed the referendums in Finland and Sweden where the opinion of the public was considered. In fact, I distinctly remember how Swedish government said this was too important to put up for the referendum. Thanks for making my point for me there.
