@marathon@mastodon.online @ErikJonker yes, the whole US government is always talking about this, how jealous we are of Russia. Every employee knows it, our monthly hate meetings with our Anglo conspirators are mandatory of course. But how could we trick Russia into acting exactly like it has chosen to for hundreds of years? HOW? Then it hit us— by NOT accepting a neighbor into a defensive alliance, but waiting for Russia to decide we might, someday, anyway! A foolproof plan!
