NATO does not, and never did, ‘defend’ democracy - Yves Engler
yvesengler.com
external-link
A secretive alliance Canadians never voted to join that requires this country to defend faraway lands and funnel ever greater resources to warfare is presented as a tool of democracy. And pro-NATO propagandists ignore how the alliance once helped oust a Canadian government and its ties to undemocratic regimes. As a result of a decision

        No. I can see more comments when I click ‘Chat’ but everything is very disorganized.

          Excluding this comment, Lemmygrad shows “43” comments but I can only see 8 real comments.

          Wonder if it’s some weird federation thing or if it’s the same kind of Lemmy bug that led to other posts having negative comments

      NATO is the biggest terrorist organization this world has ever known. If the US wants to truly fight terrorism then it should first disarm and dismantle itself.

          If you are unhappy with the state of socialism in China, then I urge to do a revolution in your country and show the world how to truly and properly build a socialist society. But I don’t think you’re interested in that, are you?

              What’s the matter? No one wants to follow your ridiculous ideals? Maybe you should try to get off your armchair and people might take you more seriously.

                  That’s quite hypocritical coming from you, considering you won’t move a finger to build socialism in your country, while inventing purity tests for AES countries, to make you fell better about your uselessness. It’s also funny because you’re the one who’s being insufferable. Pretty sure everyone would be thankful if you just shut up.

              redditor-ass comment. tankies, famously known for reading thousand page+ long books about economics, are the ones who have issues with literacy. maybe come up with a real argued point instead of bootlicking for nazis/americans.

                  …for shelling separatists who democratically voted to separate from Ukraine(and join Russia, mind you), for multiple violations of the Minsk accords(both of them), and for blowing up Nordstream 2 at the behest of Amerika, you ignorant cousinfucker. It’s almost like if you fuck around, you’ll find out.

              at the risk of being entirely genuine, NATO is a net positive for the world, especially for its member countries. We’re watching what happens when you let Russia talk you into disarming on the hopes of a forever peace play out with Ukraine right now. They want their Balkan border against the EU back by force, and would never dare step toe into a NATO country. Russia is time and time again the aggressor in Europe, and joining NATO is the only protection for many countries against that.

              It was the US who disarmed Ukraine:

              • https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/policy/defense-national-security/in-1994-the-us-succeeded-in-convincing-ukraine-to-give-up-its-nukes-but-failed-to-secure-its-future
              • https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-1994-01-11-mn-10675-story.html

              There was further disarmament as a condition to loans like these: https://www.imf.org/external/np/fin/tad/extcredt1.aspx?memberKey1=993&date1key=2004-12-31&dateyear=1995-12-31&roption=M

              And as a condition to further loans under the Extended Funds Facility, as mentioned, here: https://www.rferl.org/a/1085840.html

              The connection may not be neatly wrapped up like a Christmas present. But Ukraine’s weaknesses are a direct effect of US intervention. Before the yanks got involved, Ukraine was a powerhouse.

              Putin wanted to join NATO: https://www.rferl.org/a/russia-putin-says-discussed-joining-nato-with-clinton/28526757.html

              As had Yeltsin in 1993: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2022/jan/12/russias-belief-in-nato-betrayal-and-why-it-matters-today

              As did the Soviets before him, in 1954: https://www.counterpunch.org/2014/05/19/why-nato-has-not-permitted-russia-to-join/ :

              Refusal of membership to Russia is simply another way of saying that NATO is not a means to ensure peace in Europe.

              NATO killed six million people, including one million Iraqis, in it’s ‘war on terror’.

              It was Soviet Russia, working with Soviet Ukranians, who saved Europe against the aggressive Nazis in WWII. It was NATO who bombed would-be-allies of Russia and Ukraine, later, in Kosovo. If you didn’t know, that’s in Europe.

              You may be speaking from a genuine place but you are missing several key facts. These facts are a matter of public record. You can find them if you look. But you are unlikely to find them if you let NATO mouth pieces determine your thoughts.

          Corporations: Exist during socialism.

          Billionaires: Ditto.

          Wealth inequality: Ditto.

          Political corruption: Ditto

          Forced labor: Source? Because not even the CIA can find anything.

          Powerful elite controlling the MoP: Nope, the state does. Which is exactly according Marx and Engels.

          You have no idea what you’re talking about and it is comically obvious.
