Some of us have been stating over the years that an expansionist NATO into Russia’s area of interest is not a wise idea.
F*ck Russia. And the horse they rode in on. They need to be working with Europe and the United States, and really, the rest of the world, towards achieving some form of global unity.
The United States is also an assh*le. That goes without saying. But some efforts are always underway to make it less of an assh*le.
Russia just attacked a peaceful, democratic neighbor. Like the US attacking Canada or Mexico. No efforts are underway to make Putin less of an assh*le since these usually result in poisoning.
It's going about as well as the Jan 6 attack on the Capital.
NATO can and must, in this instance, be seen as the good guys.
The realists were warning about the need to work with Russia and take into account their security interest for decades. Don’t see a whiff of realism in your position.
I tooled up my shop over a long stretch of time but before 2016. Frankly, I’d have a hard time, given the state of the geopolitics today, to recommend to anyone what to tool up with. Could you?
The realist warned our belligerent antagonism risked integrating Russia, China and the whole Eurasian land mass into cooperative economic and military integration. This seems to be accelerating now. BRICS, ASEAN, SCO, BRI, etc.. The Mearsheimer video everyone here dismissed described this scenario but hey, don’t let objetive reality interfere with a subjective one.
