it is a shit meme tbf
“You’ve already lost the argument, for I have depicted you as the baby having mommy milky time”
???
alright you get one more, then i kind of need to stop wasting my time with you unless you get more entertaining quickly
it’s the Russian equivalent, you say, except the power dynamic is entirely different and CSTO isn’t expanding. Interesting.
because nobody wants to join the alliance run by the country most likely to invade you? “russia is too disliked for their alliance to be popular” or “russia is too incompetent to run an effective alliance” is an incredible argument
why don’t we ask azerbaijan and armenia how their membership is going if you’re confused as to why csto is unpopular?
Export of Industrial and Financial Capital to exploited Countries to super-exploit for super-profits, like an international Capitalistic relation.
ohhhhhhh so you mean like sending in pmcs to countries in africa? or setting up debt traps for countries in africa?
I have explained how and why, your refusal to read is no longer my problem.
Quite the contrary, your selective reading and blinders mean you can’t be reached with words.
literally nothing you’ve said has justified nato behaving in an imperialist way, other than your definition of imperialism, which includes russia and china, so good job
to paraphrase you, “membership expansion isn’t imperialism”, which is the only thing you’ve been arguing over, which is wild when the thing you’re meant to be justifying is that “nato is a protection racket”.
i don’t think you know what a protection racket is
So then why bring it up?
because it’s the closest equivalent to nato? the us also wouldn’t be allowed to join brics, if that helps de-confuse you.
Invasion and Imperialism are not the same thing.
please provide a definition for imperialism that doesn’t include what russia’s doing in ukraine now
This kinda verges on anti-Russian racism, there’s no analysis of why you believe this.
says the one who’s just been continuously stating without expounding that nato is a collection of spooky imperialist powers
You indeed do not know.
The GDR indeed purged Nazis, as they were attacked by western Germany, which largely retained its Nazis.
or don’t respond to what i posted that’s cool too i guess
i think it’s pretty clear you don’t have much of an argument here, given that this started as “nato is a protection racket” and across 6 replies you’ve provided absolutely nothing to support that statement past whinging
peace
Has the US been denied entry into CSTO? Has the CSTO expanded against the will of NATO?
i don’t think nato cares about csto
It’s NATO’s fault for consisting of the absolutely most grotesque reaches of Imperialist countries
russia is literally doing an imperialism right now, but nato is the one with grotesque reaches, okay
Bzzzt wrong. NATO has been expanding long before.
lmao because nato predates russia
and russia started getting into iffy wars basically at its inception
When and why did Russia start “misbehavin?”
probably because they’re an imperialist power? i don’t know
East-Germany purged Nazis
NATO was formed to be anti-USSR, after the collapse of which the Russian Federation tried to join NATO, and was denied.
in the same way the us wouldn’t be allowed to join csto
The RF then complained about NATO expansion, which had not ceased.
i don’t see how it’s nato’s fault that people are so sick of russia’s shit that they’re signing up to the defensive alliance against them in their droves
it was provoked by NATO expansion
nato expansion that existed because of russian land grabs
nato isn’t the warsaw pact. they aren’t sending in tanks to force people to be a part of their alliance.
this is just you doing the thing you accused me of doing by refusing to consider externalities
NATO didn’t start after 2022
russia didn’t start misbehavin’ after 2022 either
many of its leaders were Nazi officers
east germany was part of the warsaw pact, and had plenty of ex-nazis in its ranks
the reason you can’t draw a line from that to today is because the ussr folded like a cheap suit 30 years ago
it has always been a way to exert Western supremacy
you’re just kind of saying things now
in this case the external pressure is a rogue state doing a cheeky land grab on its neighbor
i’m not sure why that’s nato’s fault, although i’m very excited that you’re about to tell me
no it isn’t, and also, it’s rent-seeking by having countries ask to join? yes this makes sense
even if that was an accurate description of nato, that’s not an accurate description of a protection racket
Essentially, NATO serves as a protection racket
what
Harris’s hands are tied due to a contract
the us stipulates what you can do with the weapons they sell you in the contract they give you, so the us could absolutely conjure up a legal reason to terminate it
people who bemoan the genocide
oh why won’t those losers stop moaning about “genocide”
encouraging fascism by ignoring the contract
this is a nonsensical statement
respecting the sanctity of a business deal over the sanctity of human life is one of the core tenets of fascism
i don’t think dog vomit is particularly yummy and probably tastes pretty chemically but dogs tuck into that shit like it’s le cordon bleu
why did you eat cardboard soaked in ammonia
sugar is a “raw chemical” 🤓
i like to think my palate is slightly different to that of a dog
they evolved to basically survive on table scraps and other food humans didn’t want to eat so i’m not sure our concepts of “peak taste” will be the same
people sometimes have to stop their dogs eating their own vomit
why are you talking about contracts? how are contracts relevant to people in this thread being pro-fascism?
