    Anti-Trade

    What does this mean?

    Anti-NATO

    It’s good to be Anti-NATO, NATO has Nazi origins and serves as a way to maintain Western Hegemony, securing profits via Imperialism and defending said Imperialism through coalition.

      Lmao

      Mutual defense and deterrent to invasion by hostile world powers both in and outside of NATO is a bad thing? Sure, okay pal.

        It’s an alliance between Imperialist countries, and the alliance itself has Nazi origins and has had Nazi leaders. Yes, it’s a bad thing, because Imperialism is a bad thing.

        It’s a gang of countries that hyper-exploit the Global South in mutual defense against said Global South.

          It’s literally only function is a deterrent to war, including by members against others as they will not gain NATO support unless they are attacked.

          Its members might exploit, but thats a meaningless statement about NATO itself because without NATO there would literally be more war.

            It’s expansionist against the wishes of outside countries, and NATO exerts military pressure on the Global South.

            Bzzzzt wrong. NATO’s only function is to preserve Western Hegemony and dominate the Global South militarily, so that member-States can continue exploiting ruthlessly unopposed. This results in proxy wars, such as the Israeli genocide of Palestinians.

              Its not expansionist because you have to request to join.

              The only objecting countries whose wishes you’re referring to are nations who want to invade potential NATO members.
