Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

For the other nations in nato it would be for the best (imo obviously). Republican usa is not a reliable ally and the other nato nations have not all come to terms with that new reality yet. If the usa quits nato, then it instantly removes all doubt and the remaining nations of NATO can immediately start work on improving the alliance, instead of being stuck in limbo for a few more years while they're hoping that the usa will somehow magically unfuck itself.

[–] SpaceCowboy@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 day ago

We already know all of that and work is already being done to improve the alliance among non-US NATO members. The US is already considered non-reliable and the only benefit of the US being a member is that it puts some doubt in the minds of adversaries long enough to build up the militaries of the non-US members.

Nobody cares what the State Duma has to say

The thinly veiled US exceptionalism that America is funding it. And their standard attack against other nations that they are welfare states taking advantage of USA.

Fucking assholes, if people are taking advantage of us. Then be proud we are so strong and rich that they even can.

Hope, this doesn't go anywhere. NATO is frail as it is.

I don't know if a US less NATO would be that frail, it would absolutely shrink the alliance, but that can make it more flexible, being able to re form to Europe's new needs, rather than as an extension of the US military

What's more, we wouldn't be dragged into the US' imperialist shit anymore. Well, hopefully.

[–] PixelatedSaturn@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

Sure, that could be a consequence in the long run, but it would be pretty bad for our immediate situation.

[–] korsystems@lemmy.ml 7 points 1 day ago

Yes, please. I'm sick of my country working with these degenerates yankees

[–] rumimevlevi@lemmings.world 3 points 1 day ago

I hope so. The united snakes should not have any influence for all the countries they bombed and couped for decades

[–] nesc@lemmy.cafe 8 points 1 day ago

Lol, they are really regarded, US paying more is by design right from the start.

I feel like all those Leaders that met at the Hague last week should sit down and watch Rollins Band "Liar" music video.

Won’t go anywhere. But it’s a nice try.

Of course they do. Here's hoping they all die in a fire
