Resources that say nothing about the UK being a vassal state or the US being an empire. You make a huge logical leap to conclusions based on your inherent biases.
The sources make it very clear that UK politics are subordinate to US, and it’s very clear that UK economic and military dependency on US means that it’s not able to pass sovereign and independent policy that’s at odds with US interests.
Defense of Russia I’ve noticed follows the narcissist’s prayer pattern. “Russia didn’t do it, and if it did, it’s the West’s fault”.
It’s frankly depressing that you evidently don’t understand how infantile this framing is. NATO has been expanding to Russian borders and violently invading countries for decades, but you expect that Russia should just ignore that. How do you think US would react if Russia ran a coup in Mexico, invited Mexico in CSTO, stated intention to put nuclear weapons in Mexico.
The reality of the situation is that Ukraine was a sovereign and neutral state that did trade with both Russia and the west. This wasn’t good enough for the west, and the west decided to overthrow the legitimate government in Ukraine. That’s how this war started back in 2014. And if you just ignore all that then you’re morally and intellectually bankrupt.
It’s pretty clear than neither one of us is going to convince the other of anything here, and we’re just going in circles here. So, you can have the last word if that makes you feel better. I’ve said all I have to say here.
