I mean, I'd prefer to give it back to the natives and let them sort out borders tbh, My peoples have a rather shameful history of deciding other people's borders I don't want to indulge in :)

He's not in NATO, afaict, he runs a NATO fanclub in Austria.

Most of them are just current internal administrative borders, like if we carved the US up along state or county lines. It's even lazier than you think.

Yes, the following line is 'to hell with Spain' I believe, it was used as a cassus belli to start the Spanish-American war in which y'all took over Puerto Rico, Guam, the Philippines and practically took over Cuba, although Cuba was technically made independent.

Hmm, anyone remember what the title of the first Metallica album was? I feel like it's relevant to these gentlemen.

The Ukraine's (and the west's) demands are utterly insane, but others have addressed that better. Just gonna nitpick that the USSR only put missiles in Cuba as a response to the US having stationed missiles in Turkey, right on the Soviet's doorstep. It should be called the 'Turkish Missile Crisis' or the 'NATO Missile Crisis' - it's always the US starting this shit and then, like an abusive partner, gaslighting the world into accepting their narrative, painting themselves as the victim when they're the aggressor.

ok, but those European countries have never been libertarian, neoliberal in recent years sure, but that's been the point where things went to shit. If they wanted to copy our 'success', they should look at our social-democratic period where the bourgeoisie were willing to pay off the workers (with the scraps of neo-imperialism which obviously is not available to Argentina).

Except that it doesn't work in the global north and never has. Hell, it has never even been implemented in the way these psychos want, cause even the worst neoliberal inhuman trash understand that these libertarians are deranged idiots.

I wonder if I can finally convince my relatives how serious this shit is, now that it's affecting them... :(
