    Ukraine: gets invaded because they want to join NATO

    Finland: clearly we need to join NATO to protect ourselves

    I’m shitposting but yeah.

    What I find more amazing is that somehow they were able to get the population on board with this proposal. At what point do you, as a normal citizen, think that escalation and prodding is going to save you. I don’t think Russia has even spoken of Finland in recent years. They don’t care about you bro. But just stick a somewhat attractive young PM and you can pass any policy you want it seems (we love our neoliberal girlbosses 😍)

      I’ve heard so many people say that if Putin doesn’t get stopped he’ll invade all of Europe. People think Putin has the mindset of Swiper from Dora and that we need to yell: ‘Swiper no swiping’ in order for him to stop.

      That there has been an eight year long civil war prior to this doesn’t seem to matter anymore.

      You joke, but that’s the propaganda line. Almost verbatim.

      “Latvia joined NATO and didn’t get invaded, Ukraine didn’t join and got invaded. Ergo join NATO or Putler will invade!!
