Is it just me or has the entire capitalist global hegemony decided to wage war on the European citizenry
Boy oh boy that old Imperial bargain sure ain’t holding up anymore, welcome to the frontier motherfuckers
It does honestly make me wonder wtf the game-plan here is. Like, is this really just because of the war in Ukraine, or like what? Do they honestly care that much here?
The US opposed Nord Stream 2 from the beginning and massively disliked the strong economic ties between Germany and Russia, or the idea that cooperation between Russia and the EU could increase. The US sentiment was not shared by Germany, and a lot of Germans would still prefer to buy the much cheaper Russian gas, but the sabotage showed what would happen in that case: If we used the remaining line, Amerika would simply blow that up as well.
It’s the MacKinder Thesis. US must never allow Germany and Russia (Europe and Asia) to work together. Such an entity would be strong enough to throw off American hegemony. And boy, if there’s one thing those ghouls in the unelected government in DC love, it’s bullying other countries and telling them what to do. If they couldn’t do that, life wouldn’t be worth living.
