@hj what a year as finland might be next in line for Russian forces

@hj similar for Soviet-Ukrainian war and yet here we are

@kreyren just hoping that finland is less lucrative for russia - they already have access to baltic sea, finland's only relevant neighbor is sweden (norway doesn't really count since its border is waaaaaay up north and russia borders with it there too). We don't have many resources either.

That being said, he's batshit insane and unpredictable.

@hj I think that it's beyond obvious that all he cares about is to restore and expand the former russian empire so finland is logically next in line..

If i were you then i would go annoy politicians to join NATO which would protect sweden as well to some extent

@kreyren @hj >russia warns us about military retaliation if we get any closer to NATO
>that's why we should announce that we're joining NATO
I fail to understand how so many people manage to execute this particular sequence of mental gymnastics.

@sampo @hj He's saying that bcs he knows that NATO countries are non-invadable.

also trusting putin is what gets you in shit mcron learned that lesson the hard way

@kreyren @hj joining NATO is not an overnight process, he would have more than enough time to retaliate between the announcement and us actually being protected. I oppose the idea strongly. we've survived by planning our foreign policy carefully in the past, and we'll do it again.

@sampo @hj His economy is in shit.. that ain't enough time for him to take action.. it will be in a scenario where he can recover from the sanctions and re-finance the war efforts.

So the more countries join NATO the better atm

@kreyren @sampo >So the more countries join NATO the better atm

i think it's important for countries to stay neutral for as long possible, if entire world gets ultra-polarized it will be cold war 2 quantum boogaloo except hot this time
Follow

@hj @sampo Georgia was neutral in terms of russia and nato and look how it ended up for them.

We are already in a cold war it never ended just stalled

@kreyren @sampo i know, i don't want this cold war to get hot, naturally. Wars only benefit the higher ups, common folk just suffer.
