The fact that the US is even having to think about the Ukraine crisis is absolutely embarrassing for the EU

Y'all have both a population and economy which dwarfs that of Russia. Why does the US still have to be your helicopter mommy at this late date? Germany, France, Spain, & the UK should've collectively turned Ukraine into the most well-armed state in world history. Poland gets a pass bc they have a border to protect.

Western Europe and UK cucks to US all day, every day. That said, the US groomed them to be dependent politically for decades. But it's biting everyone in the ass at the end of the day. Realpolitiks failure. That's the fruits of neoliberal democracy.

Since 1941 when Winston begged Teddy.

@Burnley123 Yeah... it stems from WWII all around. It makes me sad for Europe, and the globe. No one to keep the US in check. Leads to what we see today.

Not black and white. Complex issue. But the US is a major destabalizing force. Unipolar, unilateral world with unchecked force and agression that leads to more war and economic Neoliberal exloitation/hardship all around.
