Adding another western European country that's under no threat from anyone to NATO isn't going to do anything. We should be adding backwards countries that share borders with or are targets of major enemies, like Georgia and Taiwan. You can't control the world if all you're doing is protecting yourself and your buddies from yourself and your buddies. We need to get Israel in NATO so that the next time Hezbollah fires a missile into an Israeli town we can finally invade Iran. We need to antagonize the other major powers by putting military bases in small countries all around their borders.
It's a bit of a big ask to demand that slovenian soldiers to die for Taiwan , or the portuguese to kill more palestinians. international relations dont disappear by joining NATO, and the more it expands the more likely it is to increase discord.
While there are a dozen+ similarly named and functioning arrangements between states, I think with NATO's current expansion the name of "North Atlantic" means less of a geographical limiter and more of a euphemism for "Western Aligned" countries.
For example, Georgia is a candidate member, and it's technically in both Asia & Europe.
I'm told by maps that Crimea, Donbas and Donetsk regions are part of a nation called Ukraine, and Russia sent tanks, jets and bombs to destroy cities against the wishes of the government of Ukraine.
That's what is known in international diplomacy as a "dick move".
I have residence in Odesa, Ukraine. As do most of my friends. I have spent countless nights sheltering from missiles and drones launched by the terrorist state of russia.
Yeah, messed up by making it too obvious. Don't blame the computer, the algorithm dutifully complied. It turns out the input was garbage, and by extension the ideology behind it. The model is just a mirror, and in this case it was too clear of a mirror for their liking.
That's because opiates actually work. Have you had surgery and requested the non opiate pain killer, or are you just repeating things you heard somewhere because you think you need to have an opinion?
Cool, so talking to this thing will be like talking to the boss. Can't wait for all the designated safe and appropriate Fun (TM) we'll have! It'd be better if it was just stupid.
Imagine there are no aliens intelligent in the way humans are, and nature doesn't care about us any more than it cares about a species of gnat, and that knowledge and discovery is not the purpose of life.
Honestly, it's really fun watching these woke idiots shoot themselves in the foot over and over and then backpedal when there's a public backlash. With the school board scandals, Hollywood, corporate culture and now tech, they are doing more damage to their cause than the right could ever hope to.
The problem is the people who are pushing this trash don't have any skin in the game. Anyone who wants to promote diversity should be parachuted into the nearest inner city ghetto and forced to live there, I bet they'll start thinking twice before tweeting from their gated community about how evil the white man is.
Avoiding clickbait is easy, you just need to realize that some scumbag is trying to get you click on their trash so they can make money. So why would you do it?
