      The thing is that Russia for years has had their fingers on the scales to one degree or another in most of the countries it considers to be “adversaries” (read: any country in the EU or NATO) in various manners both illegal and technically legal, and we just haven’t done a fucking thing about it.

        That’s the thing with the image of an enemy: it’s like a habit, apparently, and it’s the easy way to control people: over fear. I want to believe that we all on this insignificant planet (on cosmic scale) will overcome that at one point and grow up a little bit. As humans, not as a member of that anachronistic idea of nations.
