    “No you can’t bring up that NATO had actual Nazis with blood on their hands as leaders! Especially ones that tried to make a new Waffen-SS in the 50s! That’s unfair!”

      Yep, people love to reflexively defend NATO, as it’s very effectively pitched as merely a “defensive alliance” when it has always served as a coercive arm for the US to pressure its geopolitical adversaries, especially the Soviets, hence why they worked with the most effective anticommunists, the Nazis. If you don’t play along with NATO, then they pull Operation Gladio on you.

        And russian bots love to attack NATO because it prevents their dictator putin from conquering all previous USSR territories that became sovereign nations.

        NATO wouldn’t be necessary if Russia stopped invading other countries. So you can blame putin for that.

      Ah yes. The fallacy that europe rejects all media pointing to nazis being reintegrated into western structures.

      Completely niche idea that never seeped into the pop culture. The evil Nazi living in the west.

      Westerners just stick fingers into their ears and shout lalala each time they see this.

      Keep jerking yourself off with these arguments.
