Who needs’em? If Uncle Vlad hears that Ze Germans are rolling across the Polish border, he’ll be skipping on one leg back to Russia while changing his soiled pants. :D

Probably couldn’t trust Trump to come through, but you have to keep in mind that he’s not an autocrat quite yet. Not everyone in the US government shares his views on NATO and the commitments the US has pledged to under that alliance. Look at the rest of NATO. You have four of the top ten military powers in the world to start off with (UK, France, Turkey, Italy). Then add to that the rest of Europe and Poland’s own considerable military might. Canada would also join in, and those otherwise peaceful Canadians go fucking nuts when provoked. Even disregarding NATO, you have the Anglo-Polish Alliance, which is a mutual assurance that the UK provides military assistance (or vice versa) if their ally is invaded. Poland also has many close friends and allies in the old East Bloc, so the misconception that they would be left to their own devices is simply untrue.

Ukraine isn’t a member of NATO. In fact, their wish to join the EU and NATO could very well be the excuse Putin needed to start the invasion.

Most hilarious part of this meme is the people losing their minds in the comments. “Jesus wasn’t white, he was black! But he didn’t exist, stop with the religious nonsense!”

What else do we have left at this point?

Ukraine not being a NATO member yet is most likely among the main reasons Putin had the balls to send troops across the border. There's absolutely no way he'd risk a full-on confrontation with NATO, because he knows it would be the end of the Russian Federation.

An attack on Poland would immediately invoke NATO Article 5, drawing in the combined forces of continental Europe, the UK, the US and Turkey. The world wouldn't need to worry about it going nuclear, conventional forces would have the Russians back over the Belarusian border by lunchtime.

I don't even live in the US, but the internet has conditioned me to prepare myself for something batshit insane whenever I read the words "Florida man". What's up with that?

Reminder to post images of Obama on Trump's birthday. Why not reshare videos of Obama on YouTube to drown out the military parade as well, abuse the algorithm a bit? :)
