  • Sure they’re increasing their defense spending. But not really in the interest of USA.

    USA wanted european defense spending to increase for multiple reasons:

    1. To funnel european money into the american military industrial complex.
    • This isn’t happening right now. Europeans are prioriticing european contractors.
    1. To fight in american wars of agression around the world.
    • Fat fucking chance when USA is threatening wars of agression against NATO countries.
    1. To defend against Russia.
    • With Putin owning Trump, this is now against Trump’s interests.
    • While the threat from Russia is pretty big, they’re not in any way in a position to fight anything bigger than Ukraine.













  • The bigger issue is that Trump and Putin are just the most visible part of the problem.

    If they both died tomorrow (oh god please), another would simply take their place. It would require a complete deprogramming of their supporters on the scale of Germany in 1945. The problem is that the entire government needs to fall for that to ever even be attempted. It would literally require a revolution or large scale invasion for that to happen at this point, and even then, as we’ve seen with Russia and Northern Africa quite a few times, revolutions have a tendency to just pave the way for the next lunatic to take power.

    In USA, invasion isn’t really possible, so it would have to be an incredibly violent and costly (in human lives) revolution, with a slim chance to actually change anything.

    An invasion of Russia is probably possible, but it would require some insane inside help to make sure they don’t just nuke everything when they realise they’ve lost anyway. A revolution probably wouldn’t do much, because of the brainwashing problem.
