And that’s that Russia hasn’t called a general mobilization nor switched to a war economy.

Sadly Western Eurasia as a whole has reached the final decades of the Ottoman Empire stage… without Daddy USA propping up their prosperity, Western Eurasia will slip into irrelevancy and as soon as they need to participate in any major war, are sure to shatter to pieces.

If Trump dismantles NATO, he might, ironically enough, be the best US president ever.

They’ve been brainwashed into thinking the Democratic Party is as far left as humanly possible and anyone who disagrees is a lowkey Republican.

Does your cruelty have no bounds?!

I’m honestly surprised it has gone on as long as it has, isn’t Ukraine struggling to conscript anyone under 25?

It might unironically be Hasan’s burner account.

Angela Merkel basically admitted it in 2014 when she called for proactive security measures against Russia for invading? Crimea, she was asked, "Why didn't Germany call for sanctions on the US for invading Iraq?" and she said something like "We know the US is bad on foreign policy but at least they never attack their allies".

Liberals act like it's irrational behavior, it's not, more like desperate behavior. The PRC flimflammed the US in a spectacular move, forcing the US to make a critical, possibly terminal mistake. China took on market changes to build up its productive powers. It's in line with Orthodox Marxism that a nation has to go from primitive communism -> feudalism -> mercantilism (early-style capitalism) -> (mid-stage) capitalism -> neoliberalism (late-stage capitalism)-> socialism -> communism But China was intelligent enough to always have the Party in charge, unlike other times when the US ruined communist projects by having them adopt capitalism which led to the corporate oligarchy of liberalism...

So now some people in the US want to attempt to reindustrialize to compete with China at a break-neck speed, even if that means hurting American citizens and breaking ties with key allies.

Capitalists found out that their liberal populations will accept anything they define as tyranny or immorality as long as it has one degree of separation from government. It’s not “government propaganda” that says that we need to say, bomb Djibouti, no it’s the “Institute for the Promotion of Peace has released a study on why bombing Djibouti leads to peace”.

Same reason why it’s outrageous corruption if someone gives a politician a bribe, but if they “lobby” them then it’s okay.

The Europeans (at least in the Schengen/EU area) that think they have the ability to stand up to the US is so cute… sweaty, your power comes from the US. Just like with the Iraq War, you’re allowed to kick up dust and go into empty platitudes but you aren’t allowed to actually change anything.
