this is what really sets leftists apart from liberals imo.
liberals like to decorate themselves with the nimbus of morality but when it comes to stepping up to fascism and protesting even if it’s not like a fun parade but serious and uncomfortable. Or just if the weather is bad.
Or when it comes to being self critical about your own learned patterns of behavior and thinking… they are nowhere to be seen, not to be relied on and it does real damage, as we can see.
Did you read the post you’re commenting on?
These countries are part of NATO.
NATO is an alliance against external threats. We’re talking about internal conflicts. Did you miss the part where Trump threatened Canada and Denmark, both being NATO members?
Article 5 can be invoked if one NATO member attacks another.
That’s literally false, go and read article 5. It explicitly says external threats, not internal. In this case, Article 1 applies, which is actually about internal conflicts., but it simply says that any conflicts should be resolved peacefully, not that other members have any obligation to get involved.
