You know the US is not the "entire western world" right?! I think venezuela would be against it for example.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 2 months ago

Pretty sure the US is an ally of Russia now anyways.

If Germany had started with, and stuck to, attacking Russia, I doubt it'd have been a world war. I don't remember who all were Russia's allies at the start, but IIRC only the French were particularly fond of Russia. There weren't a lot of the usual royal contract-through-marriage, were there? Did many nobles have Russian cousins?

"the entire western world"

A bunch of crazy politicians want that. The majority of people in both sides wants peace and would like their money to be spend in useful things and not giant armies.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 months ago (3 children)

Russia, both politician and population, is not backing down. they have tied their own identity to war. this problem is not going away until its made to go away.

I assure you. You do not want to live in Russkiy Mir. (The Russian World). where most of europe is enslaved, or dead.

We've always had a giant army. It just wasn't ours and we can't rely on it any more.

The russian population is heavily on board with their genocide. Polish are always on board to kick russias ass, most of france, germany, skandinavia, spain and portugal and italy are too. Britain is basicly united on this as one could see in their last parliament seating where even nigle farage was all in. Turkey also stands with ukraine, island is just minding its own buisness and ireland i honestly have no idea what is going on there. BeNeLux is also on board but have their own problems intern, austria is too buissy sniffing essential oils to care, balkan mostly also against russia even serbia though they play both sides. Hungarian and slovakian leaders are the only once deepthroating russian cock

That's not true at all, that's what media makes you believe. You ear macron say something and you believe all french people are down to it. The majority of people don't want any war, ask your peers irl.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago (7 children)

We dont want war yes but see clearly that putin musst be stopped and europe needs to remilitarize.

Russias population as proven in many phone calls that have been publiciced and many interviews with russian people show they support their genocide

Baltics -> Balkan. Baltics is Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania. They are also preparing for the worst though it's just that Serbia isn't part of it

I read a lot of news and thus is the first I'm hearing this

[–] [email protected] -2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Mass media spin the narrative. Ask people irl around you what they think

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

To clarify, it's the first I'm hearing about the Germans becoming some sort of Deus ex machina against Russia

I do indeed talk a lot about the goings on with my peers

Poland: "What about attacking Russia alongside with an ally?"

[–] [email protected] 24 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Germany: "i thought these days would never come again. Fighting russia with poland and france like we did late 1700s and early 1800s"

The original band coming back for one more single.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Wouldnt say it was a band. Napoleon forced some of the germans, the others joined because they wanted to be on the winning side, and the poles fought with Bonaparte for their freedom

This would be much more concerning if they hadn't so thoroughly stamped out fascism. What's the alternative for Germany?

[–] [email protected] 14 points 2 months ago

AfD is a nazi party. With tied to Blood and Honor, Proud Boys, constantly yelling nazi quotes, nazi saluting in private and small meetings, copying their rethoric and imagin aso

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Germany was never fully denazified. There's a reason the New Left in Germany was so militant. Kiesinger was in the Nazi Party!

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Yeah the Schreibtischnazis and industrial-nazis never got punished. And not to speak of east germany who employed SS and Gestapo members in their StaSi

The alternative is to not build a giant army and use the money in something more useful that will benefit germans and humanity

And whenever Russia wants some land it's just handed over?

I think the widespread political "unwavering support" for a nation committing Genocide, which is justified by the ethnicity of the people of that nation, kinda shows that some part of Fascism (the whole "people's race is what matters the most and some races are better than others") hasn't at all been stamped out.

Then there's AfD which is just taking the "if it's good to support them because of their race, then it's good to support us" step closer to Fascism.

Germany is far closer to a certain philosophy anchored on classifying one's fellow human being as worthy or unworthy depending on race than one would like to believe (certainly, I liked to believe before the political reaction there to whole Gaza thing made it too obvious to deny) - the symbols were made illegal whilst the spirit lives.

Thoroughly?

Supporting companies? ...

[–] [email protected] 32 points 2 months ago

I can’t tell if that’s a lucky coincidence or a reference, but the Alternative for Germany (AfD) are the biggest voices in support of fascism in Germany, and they just won 20% of the seats in parliament. Luckily, even the CXU won’t form a coalition with them yet, so they will hopefully not have much impact on things.

Ironically, the AfD doesn’t want to militarize against Russia (but don’t be too reassured, they do want to reinstate mandatory conscription and militarize generally, just not against daddy Putin)

[–] [email protected] 80 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Fascism is back on the rise there, unfortunately.

[–] [email protected] 169 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I thought my little AfD reference at the end would give me away.

[–] [email protected] 30 points 2 months ago

I thought it was clear
