    It’s when a population realizes that they have nothing left to lose, that they might as well follow the fascist dictator into wars to reclaim glory, in the hopes that tomorrow will be better.

    You’re talking like that is a possible future event. How is that different than how Russia is acting now?

    The next fascist might well attack NATO, then we’re all in it.

    Russia has already expended half of its military capability and is only holding about 25% of Ukrainian land while it continues to lose more military capacity. We’re already in it if we let Russia win in Ukraine.
