    Does anyone know what the heck is going on now? I mean on one hand, wouldn’t this mean we would need to strengthen our alliances with other countries so groups such as NATO can claim global dominance rather than a singular country such as the USA? On the other hand wouldn’t we need to do literally a 180 on our global policies on trade, immigration, and military might?

    Like I got no idea whats going on.

      That’s part of the point. Hypernormalization keeps people confused. There is too much to encapsulate easily. But to the point of the couch fucker’s speech, isolating the US benefits Russia and its goals. NATO absolutely does not align with Putin’s agenda at all. He wants it weak or dead. As far as your question about doing a 180 on trade/immigration policies, have you not noticed anything about tariffs or deportations? The US pissing on Canada and Mexico? They have already changed so much of that.

      The US is not operating as it once was. The objective goals now are to help Russia and further enrich the wealthy class.
