Actual description of the situation, that is close to reality. Surprisingly, the pro war propaganda is so strong that many Europeans and North Americans stand brainwashed and if they are told about the reality, they would spontaneously get mad, and start abusing.
Europe had two choices:
1. Say NO to NATO and yes to unlimited and cheap energy from Russia. Germany remains a superpower, living standards continue to rise across Europe, the economy booms, birth rates go up, the people are happy, life is good, prosperity.
2. Obey America, push NATO, say YES to every war, commit economic suicide, enter a depression, 1 in 5 economically inactive, 1 in 5 at risk of poverty, record business failures, record bankruptcies, record homelessness, hyperinflation, every year is like 2008, Europe quickly becoming a rundown backwater continent.
Almost every European leader chose option 2 without hesitation. And they still are. Proudly.
You will still be called crazy for pointing this out.
