I actually think the rest of Europe, en masse, coming to the defense of Ukraine and putting Russia in a chokehold that it doesn’t get out of without enormous concessions is just about the best possible outcome to Russia invading a sovereign nation

After years of warnings that the war in Ukraine could spiral into a full-on Russia-Europe conflagration, the conflict has reached a point where this is a real possibliity. It’s a prospect that threatens not just European lives but the entire globe.

I’m not laughing off anything. When Russia invaded Ukraine you had a war in Europe. The correct response was for all of Europe (and the US) to mobilize against Russia, militarily and economically. That didn’t happen and here we are. The best time to do that was 2022. The next best time is now

Yeah, this is the other thing, if any of the major European powers decide enough is enough, Russia is ROYALLY fucked. If several of them do? Like, what are we even talking about?
