That's so dumb... To consider a defensive alliance more destructive and deadly that a corrupt state waging a war of expansion

    Defensive alliance that bombs every third world country that dares to go against the interests of the imperial core? Who are they "defending again?

    us-foreign-policy

    Also how much has NATO expanded since the end of the cold war with its mafia protection racket style tactics in Europe?

    defensive alliance

    NATO is defensive? lol, lmao

    a corrupt state

    That's Ukraine, it used to be considered the most corrupt place in Europe by the Western media right until February 2022

    waging a war of expansion

    That's also Ukraine since they're trying to take territory from the Donetsk and Lugansk People's Republics after they declared independence following the coup against Viktor Yanukovych in 2014
