Oh I'm sorry this totally changes the answer, so silly of me. How dare these contries be so individualistic by thinking that a threat to their safety might be overextended to other countries as well... Such a lack of sportmanship
Yeah I know Europeans only care about other white people you don't need to tell me that, crazy that Pakistan and India didn't accuse each other or South Korea accusing North Korea or the countries "threaten" by China, not even Taiwan accuse China, only
When people refer to Europe in general, they are doing so as a region built by colonialism that today persists in the form they do by relying on imperialism and neocolonialism. Being upset at Europe's ongoing and historical role, plundering the global south and refusing to pay reparations, is entirely consistent.
Further, "brainwashing" does not exist. Propaganda does not work that way. People generally license themselves to believe that that which benefits them is justified. Russia isn't a threat to Europe, what's threatening is the decay in superprofits from imperialism and neocolonialism causing stagnating economies and a rise in the far-right. Russia is a scapegoat to justify increased military spending.
When Russian drones will start to blow up banks and financial districts I will start believing your rhetoric.
As long as they keep blowing up civilians, then I'm sorry to me they're the same as the others. No matter how many of my comments you remove, reality isn't a social media
