  I’m sorry but this is something so american to say 🤭

  “manifest destiny”, tons of propaganda, consumerism and utter bullshit from their upper classes have been ruining 'muricans brains for decades, that’s why the average joe spout that kind of shitty spiel acritically everywhere they go

  I mean, just at Munich a few days ago the secretary-general of NATO was pointing out Europe’z dependence on the US’s nuclear threat and that without US aid to Ukraine the other NATO countries can’t make up the difference.

  This is the first year in decades Germany is meeting the 2% spending goal for NATO. There’s a lot of scrambling to modernize military capabilities across non-US member countries but in most cases that’s 5 to 10 years away.

  If you think that Europe doesn’t depend on the US’s military and intelligence to offset Russia and China you might want to look a bit more into the topic before assuming it’s just 'Murica exceptionalism.
