NATO is a defense agreement. I know I'm on a Russian-apologist instance, but you guys are huffing Russian glue every time you parrot the propaganda of NATO being a threat to Russia.

By definition, NATO is only a threat to Russia if Russia threatens to expand, full stop.

NATO is an aggressive alliance that has invaded and destroyed numerous countries. The fact that you keep pretending that it's a defensive alliance just shows how utterly dishonest you are.

Want to share a source on that? Or are you making shit up?

Share a source for NATO invading Yugoslavia, Libya, Syria, and Afghanistan, is that what you're asking there little buddy?

Are you saying you can't? Are you maybe saying that the only sources you have are Russian propaganda? Or are you just being condescending because you can get away with it on a Russian sympathizing instance?

No, I'm saying that anybody can type in words NATO and Yugoslavia or NATO and Libya into Google and see that you're a liar.

What I've read so far about each of those cases is that nato was deployed to either halt a genocide or suppress a terrorist organization. Both of those things are still defensive actions.

Though I guess they could be interpreted as aggressive by countries that are pro-genocide and pro-terrorism, so it makes perfect sense that a Russia/China instance would be pissing themselves.

Your fears are based in the aggressive nature of the countries you simp for, so do carry on. Nothing I say is going to convince you one way or the other if you're already eating the propaganda cereal.
