What does this mean?
It's good to be Anti-NATO, NATO has Nazi origins and serves as a way to maintain Western Hegemony, securing profits via Imperialism and defending said Imperialism through coalition.
Lmao
Mutual defense and deterrent to invasion by hostile world powers both in and outside of NATO is a bad thing? Sure, okay pal.
.
Also, don’t send us reports just because you don’t agree with someone. We’re not here to censor people for you.
Oh no! So you want to talk about how the mutual self defence pact is somehow oppressing you or will you just keep dodging forever?
What alt accounts? What are you even talking about? That’s two bullshit reports in one day, wasting our time.
It's an alliance between Imperialist countries, and the alliance itself has Nazi origins and has had Nazi leaders. Yes, it's a bad thing, because Imperialism is a bad thing.
It's a gang of countries that hyper-exploit the Global South in mutual defense against said Global South.
It's literally only function is a deterrent to war, including by members against others as they will not gain NATO support unless they are attacked.
Its members might exploit, but thats a meaningless statement about NATO itself because without NATO there would literally be more war.
It's expansionist against the wishes of outside countries, and NATO exerts military pressure on the Global South.
Bzzzzt wrong. NATO's only function is to preserve Western Hegemony and dominate the Global South militarily, so that member-States can continue exploiting ruthlessly unopposed. This results in proxy wars, such as the Israeli genocide of Palestinians.
Its not expansionist because you have to request to join.
The only objecting countries whose wishes you're referring to are nations who want to invade potential NATO members.
Bzzzzt wrong. NATO is expansionist because it pressures non-member states and routinely starts proxy wars.
Bzzzzzt wrong. Western Hegemony damages the Global South and NATO keeps member-states unaccountable.
You're accusing America of causing Russian annexation of Crimea and subsequent war on Ukraine?
You think Russia is working for NATO?
Pressuring people into a mutual defence pact lol such an evil thing lol
it's lemmyworld... they'll never learn that they aren't on reddit anymore.
