When USSR collapsed, the USA could not change its mind. It simply kept up the war on USSR but renamed it the war on Russia.

There are great numbers of well connected people who depend on having a large and prosperous military industrial complex. The system needs to have potential adversaries.

So, Russia was never going to be allowed to join nato.

But now, instead of folding, they’re fighting - and doing it well. They threaten to destroy the propaganda based alternate reality - and reveal our warmongers to be reckless and dangerous liars.

I feel bad for the thousands of young Ukrainians - and Russians - who are getting killed and maimed. It’s a great mess. Very sad. And we’ll be lucky if it doesn’t turn into a nuclear blowout.

People are laughing at the Europeans that they have no armies, no tanks and not enough artillery. But it seems that it’s a lot better than having too much. Oh yeah - they were protected by the US, that’s true - but what good is a protection that may leave all of them dead? - over some wonderful idiotic Zbigniewian dream of decolonizing the one nation that has the largest number of nukes.
