Also would like to add that the concept of "empire" has long been THE IDENTITY of russia long before its modern borders were drawn. Even as far as the rurik dynasty and the Kieven rus, there is no russia without empire. Thats why modern russia has an identity crisis because the nation itself has...
Thats sadly not how Great power politics works. The US can swing its dick around and everyone has to shut up because the US has the biggest dick. When you're a Hegemon, you can do shit that weaker powers dislike, and they can't do shit about it. The US would find an excuse and invade Canada if...
Think of this from russia's perspective. How would the US react if Chinese bases start popping up in Mexico and Canada? What if Mexico and Canada wanted it? Does that not make it an act of aggression?
The Monroe doctrine exists. The United States would outright invade Mexico and Canada if it...
They did so legally through the referendum. Again, im not defending russia. This is all an excuse to grab more territory. NATO and the EU is falling hook line and sinker into the trap.
Now, it's time for them to step up and stop saber rattling but, russia knows they won't do shit. They'll eat...
How do you think US would react if China all of a sudden starts building a military base in Mexico? :milaugh:
It's not war right?
The thing is that we've all been conditioned into accepting when the US does imperialism. US bases all around the world isn't weird because we're just so used to...
It's not an act of war but it's hostile. The first thing NATO(America) is going to do the moment they accept Ukraine into NATO is start building bases all across Ukraine. Theres no reason to expand. There is no threat of the Soviet Union. NATO being alive past the cold war is just straight up...
Well America is NATO. America's imperialism boner supersedes all other input. And what did European leaders think was going to happen when NATO tries to further expand East?
I'm not defending Putin but it's a straight up dare for NATO to be right on your doorstep and you do nothing about it.
Lets be honest and admit that NATO and the US is engaging in Western Imperialism. Putin's actions are not acceptable but, what the fuck is NATO doing expanding post cold war? Like WTF is russia and its shitty GDP capable of doing to Europe as a whole?
On the first part of the journey
I was looking at all the life
There were plants and birds and rocks and things
There was sand and hills and rings
The first thing I met was a fly with a buzz
And the sky with no clouds
The heat was hot and the ground was dry
But the air was full of sound
