    I think you’re confusing anti-NATO sentiment with pro-putin sentiment

    There wouldn’t need to be pro-NATO shit if Russia didn’t invade an entire fucking country, what are they talking about

    They same the exact same shit with Syria, that Bashaar is the lesser evil despite gassing his own people and running concentration camps. Fuck them all, they’re no better than fascists.

      NATO is a defensive alliance. It poses no threat to anyone unless they attack a NATO country. It’s like a porcupine, just leave it alone and everyone is happy.

      Russia could probably join as WL well if they wanted. Ideally, all countries join, which would probably eliminate war entirely.

        From what i’ve seen yes. We shouldn’t forget Libya but it seems to have a clean track record? I’m not sure why some would have negative views about NATO as an idea but some of their actions can be criticized.

        Ideally, all countries join, which would probably eliminate war entirely.

        Probably not. Most countries wouldn’t waste resources on protecting tiny countries or its opponents. Even just sending reparations some countries fail at. (See the US and iraq :( )

          Fair. But it hopefully dramatically reduce it, though I worry terrorism would increase since that’s the only realistic way to get a point across without official military force.
