    What about Poland? I’m not super plugged in on Europe as I’m a burger-person. I know of Poland is it like Ukraine has a lot of reaction after the fall of the Soviet Union though theirs is very catholic flavored. They’re in NATO and therefore bad.

    Someone on reddit, I think the trueanon sub once called the eastern periphery of NATO the “nuclear crumple zone” for the US. They’re pawns, not given the same standing as western NATO powers but full of lapdogs who don’t mind. I don’t think Poland will do anything without US approval as they’re lapdogs and if they did the US would make them deny or downplay it and refuse to act (see for example the recent missile strike by a Ukrainian s-300 that killed 2 people, Poles sort of started to spin it but the US shot it down hard and they backed up). I think if the US chooses to engage in a direct hot war with Russia and drop the pretense they’re happy to sacrifice Poland and if nuclear war is chosen they’d certainly rather Russia blast them, as I mentioned the nuclear crumple zone. Unfortunately for them, Russia has more than enough nukes to not only obliterate NATO’s eastern flank but also the core.
