That fucking headline dude, they looked at years of Ukraine getting demographically dismantled shell by shell and decided "I would like to wishcast some of that for myself please". Like I know this is just cynical tension-raising to justify massive influxes of cash to various Euro-American MICs, but it's so fucking gross to see all these countries turn to the populaces they've helped immiserate on behalf of porky-happy and go "oooooo! Scary Russia is coming for you ooooooo!" No Russian ever priced me out of heat and healthcare.

Right, it's just surreal how western media is trying to sell western public on a war with Russia.

I bet 90% of Russia's 40,000 nukes don't even work!

Yeah but Russians didn't give their oil for zero dollars a barrel to Exxon or Total or Shell either. It's not just the MIC, all of the west benefited from extraction and exploitation and now it's seeing some barriers. Europe is gonna have to develop a new economic model or continue this path of destruction. It's just how they set themselves up since the days of Columbus.

TLDR: it's not just the MIC, they will sacrifice millions of proxies for a 1% chance at getting a hold of resources. That's imperialism.
