wait, you are not being ironical?

how the fuck do you manage to claim that the west is the free world™ while it is the empire to blame for the largest amount of worldwide suffering in the second half of the twentieth century? It is responsible for countless invasions, sanction regimes and assassinations with the goal of subjugating foreign nations, as well as courting nazis post ww2, like for example people like klaus barbie or wernher von braun, as well as the entire early government of the frg.

your fantasizing about a supposed military threat from the prc to taiwan and from russia to the rest of europe is nothing but pure projection, since you westoids apparently cant imagine someone acting from a different motivation than your own. the prc has time and time again stated that it prefers a peaceful resolution to the taiwan conflict and the province has never officially declared any grade of independence from the mainland, simply being under a different government, the roc.

russia on the other hand has absolutely no reason to start any military conflicts in western europe, something you would know, if you would even try to understand the lead up to the current situation.

your last sentence honestly just sounds like a thinly veiled blood for the blood god.

FWIW, there are plenty of politicians in Europe who disagree with you, it's not an American take, here's a quote from Lithuania's PM:

"the outcome of this fight in Ukraine is crucial for Europe."

"If Putin is not stopped in Ukraine, then whatever happens next is Europe's problem at large," she said. https://www.businessinsider.com/russia-not-stopped-in-ukraine-all-europe-problem-lithuania-pm-2024-3?op=1

lithuania, like all the baltic states, is a us puppet state. also they are so obviously fascist that they even erect monuments to literal nazis.

Also if Europe isn't concerned about Russia, why has Europe's defense spending drastically gone up? Clearly there is more going on than your blase attitude is implying.
