    Uh the nation of Finland with its tiny itsy bitsy army would like to have a word.

    Or Sweden, renowned for its centuries old tradition of US-dependency, especially their reliability on air assets to upkeep sovereignty.

    Simple as.

        If you have any knowledge at all from the countries in question or the world in general, you would’ve understood the sarcasm. Now you just prove you have no idea what you are talking about.

        Finland has a massive army and Sweden is renowned for its air power. These are not secrets, but well-known facts that even slightly educational people know. Unlike you.

          Dude it’s an alliance of western powers. No matter how proud the Nords are of their armies, they are ultimately dependent on the military and financial domination of the US.

              Let’s see literally any one of those countries try to go socialist and see how long it takes for the US to invade and coup them.

                  Look it’s hard to put a definite date on it, because capitalism didn’t just happen in one day. It happened over centuries. The european alliance had its roots in the colonial rush for the New World, and later Africa. After squabbling over territories, they learned they could make more money by cooperating and exploiting the poor countries together. And it’s been like that ever since about 1900.

            Finland has been in an alliance for less than a year. Sweden hasn’t been in an alliance in centuries.

            Do people actually talk this enthusiastically on subjects they have no knowledge of? Scary, but explains a lot

        I think I’m being trolled here but if you actually don’t know about the concepts of finlandization or Sweden’s neutrality I have no clue how you can keep a straight face lying

            You are saying Finland and Sweden had no deterrence during their respective times of neutrality.

            And social democracy is when US spends money on military? Yo what?
