80% of reddit’s traffic is like US/Europe, you think they’ll have fair discussions about what Europe-US did/does/will do?

Yes. Puting aside the memes for a second, nobody is more critical of their own government than the citizens of said government (even if in abstract they benefit from the actions of said government, ex: like americans with the american cultural hegemony). It's why fascists always go after dissidents the hardest, because the people who are most familiar with the group are the ones with the most capacity to be insightfully critical about said group, and this threatens the ideal unity (or whatever they call it). This is fundamental to political theory. Marx and Engels have a whole musical number about this concept.
