    I know Americans love to speak about race all day, but Russian aggression 500km from your home is more concerning than American aggression 5.000km, including an ocean, away. Especially when Russia already was preparing to claim the next land (baltics, even Poland and Finland).

      Tell me: what are the reasons Russia would want to invade Poland or Finland?

      Europe actively joined in bombing Yugoslavia. The problem is never about distance to home, it’s about how to be servile to the Yanks.

        Europe wasn’t targeting civilians and trying to annex Yugoslavia. Guess what?

          Yeah yeah every European war is awesome and epic, unlike Russia who purposefully murders civilians all day despite having a much, much, much lower civilian kill rate in Ukraine than NATO in Iraq.

            Iraq wasn’t nato, it was US and UK. European wars are a mixed bag, like most countries. Russia does murder civilians all day, the thing is Ukraine has much better defenses than Iraq.

      That might make sense if the EU just didn’t acknowledge the American aggression. But they did acknowledge it and doubled down on supporting the US, and how “Venezuela/Cuba/Iran deserved it, actually.” Sure seems like they’re only against Russian aggression because it affects them, and they’re completely supportive of white aggression against everyone else.
