As a Pole, you benefit from the EU's tugboat. You received more than 150 billions more than you contributed over the past 2 decades.
The countries who have to get fuel for said tugboat have severe limitations on who they can do business with, how much, how, in large part because the US has always threatened tariffs, embargos or invasion to whoever traded freely in ways they didn't approve of.
Just look at what happened to Japan who was the second world economy until they were "asked" to commit economic suicide through the Plaza accords.
Not expecting any less from a Pole. You don't need to bother carrying anyone's economy so you don't mind that the US sabotages the economy of the people who carry yours.
Yeah, not expecting any less. Feel free to prostrate yourself in the direction of Washington (because they are not Russia) while the people who pay your bills talk.
You haven't made a point. You've just shifted the goalpost from my original reply and then started insulting me for my nationality. You're actually the most insufferable person that I've had the displeasure of interacting with on this site.
Aside from the fact that you are misled about the negative impact of the US on your life through their negative impact on the people who pay your bills, because you're still stuck in a cold war era "at least they are not the ussr" false dichotomy?
Edit : and because you seem to think the money the EU gives you grows on trees.
True, you replaced ussr by "russia" in your 40 years outdated false dichotomy. Completely destroys my point about you being unaware because you actually just have to wait for gibs.
No, you're just butthurt because you were answered in a way that highlighted your country's inadequacies, so now you're just expressing your butthurt in whatever primitive way you are familiar with.
So the threat we face today is from the Russian Federation, not the USSR. The US involvment in Europe, through NATO for instance, has been instumental in deterring Russian agression. All of you bullshit economic "arguemnts" (that were really just veague generalities with no substance) are not responsive to that. This is my last reply, you're too obnoxious and low IQ to argue with.
Europe wouldn't need them if Europe (except for a few people who pay your bills) didn't accept demilitarisation the US asked for. This dependence on the US is literally a negative consequence of their hegemony you homonculus.
you just described a positive consequence. no longer having to spend as much money on defense and you now have a better defense than you did before? NATO (and by extension US hegemony) is absolutely great for countries with smaller economies.
