I'm pretty sure at this point the world is just 12 corporations in a trench coat and the rest of us are on the fritz.

The US only overthrew a few european governments (Italy, Greece, Russia, Poland, Yugoslavia, Ukraine, Georgia). Not enough for them to care.
Western Europeans do not consider slavs Europeans.

I have an Irish comrade who is currently doing an AMA on Reddit, and I stg every other question on there is like "why do you love Russia? Why don't you consider NATO to be selfless defenders of social democracy? You make me sick"
He's not even pro Russia, he just has a nuanced criticism that also sharply criticizes NATO
Very expected of Reddit.
Putin came to power in… 1997? So almost 30 years. In that time, the invasion of Ukraine is I think only the second or third time Russia has attacked another country? The other two are Chechnya and Georgia IIRC, and both of those were quite a bit more complicated than the Russia/Ukraine relationship (and the former was only like a few days).
Impressive… very nice… now let’s see America’s card.
Seriously, America is poised to attack as many countries just in the first half of 2026 as Putin has in nearly 30 years.
Chechenya was more complicated but essentially it boiled to being prototype ISIS pseudostate which destabilised entire region and later events show that the Chechens themselves wasn't monolithic on this, Russia fucked it up at first by trying to do it American way while not being America, but what did you expect of Yeltsin.
Georgia was actually incredibly similar to Ukraine, it started when Georgian comprador government attempted to ethnically cleanse Ossetians. The difference was that Georgian govt was more traditional US comprador instead of full nazis like in Ukraine and backed down after Russia shown they are willing to make a military confrontation out of it. And note that Russia did not even invaded Georgia just enforced back to the status quo which is autonomy and de facto independence of South Ossetia from Georgia, which i think is more than restrained in the face of ethnic cleansing.
Who in sweet crystallized Christ fuck is telling you the US isn’t screwing the globe over???
Like, as a USian I know and hate what this country is doing and at least here I haven’t seen anyone really claim otherwise. Maybe in Zionist havens like major social media but you’re posting to a tiny choir here.
