@AlexLunaView Cool. I hope it goes on like this. Although, we Europeans don't want much of war tech anyways.

@jrp

You want Europe to remain weak and to standby as it is consumed by fascism? Weird.

@Chowderman 🍴 We don't need weapons not to be "consumed by fascism". We will not be consumed by fascism.

@jrp

Of course Europe needs weapons to avoid being consumed by fascism (maybe too late for you in Saint Petersburg).

Without arming, Europe will either be invaded by fascist Russia, or, in the weakened rump of Europe, have a fascist government imposed upon it by Russia.

Given that Ukraine is currently suffering from an unprovoked invasion after disarming, your pro Kremlin talking point is even more ridiculous than it was historically.

Independence through continued weakness is as ludicrous as it sounds. Peace through deterrence is and always has been the correct answer.

As Carl von Clausewitz said “To secure peace is to prepare for war.”

@Chowderman 🍴 You are obviously reading things into what i said, and not reading the links i sent. I am generally not into starting flame wars with unknowns on social media. I do think, that this is the wrong way to discuss things, especially when the discussion partners involved tend to take dogmatic view points. Dogmatism isn't going to solve anything. At last, to conclude this: Fascism is a social problem at first, not a military-related one. We're having lots of issues with this in different states of Europe, and we'll have to deal with that on a society level, and between exactly the people involved there. No arms are needed for this. Have a good day with it :)

@jrp

You seem unable to comprehend what is in the links that you provided, as someone more polite than me already pointed out.

That you persist in referring to those links as support for your contention, after your misreading was pointed out, suggests that you are insincere.

@Chowderman 🍴 Thanks, i enjoyed talking to you, too.
