>>136977>やり方はどうあれ結果は違ってるのは大事だThe results are different but the comparison is misleading. Communism was a failure. Capitalism made the US and its "allies" richer. The USSR disintegrated and is no more. The US won the Cold War. The world transitioned into US hegemony. The dollar became the world's most used reserve currency making the US even more wealthy. But history hasn't ended and all empires come and go. My argument is that all "great powers" (at least all European-style great powers) are similarly selfish and self-interested in their approach to international relations. The greatest part of the difference that you see when looking at the US vs USSR/Russia is that the US is a living sea-going empire (a thassalocracy) made rich by capitalism, while Russia is the remnant of a land-based empire (a tellurocracy) which was relatively impoverished by communism. Your heart bleeds for every Baltoid, Poland, Georgia, Ukraine, etc., while ignoring the corresponding Cuba, Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, Libya, etc.
>4年経ったらレーガン時代のあとの様に何とか元に戻るしDoubtful. I believe that even if Trump goes away and the establishment takes over again, the US cannot simply return to "normal". Broadly speaking, it is the world that seems to be undergoing a restructuring, not just the US. In fact, we seem to be returning to the historical "normal" of great power balance and leaving behind the period of unrestricted US hegemony. In this sense, it is the pre-Trump era that was "abnormal" and Trump represents a return to quid-pro-quo alliances rather than the US paying for the "security/occupation" of a sprawling set of "allies" which are not core strategic interests. The GAE is becoming too expensive. Last year the national debt interest was larger than the Pentagon budget...
>長い目で見れば例え合衆国の同盟に居続ければ安心だよAnd Plaza accords, stagnation, and lost decades (and soon perhaps proxy war). But maybe that's OK with you.
>何回も隣国を敵に回して戦争が起きたというThere are exactly 2 cases of the post-Soviet Russia attacking its neighbors and both of them are the result of the 2008 NATO summit in Bucharest which declared that NATO would expand to Georgia and the Ukraine. Everyone, including most top strategic thinkers in the US and Europe, knew perfectly well that this was unacceptable to Moscow and it would trigger war. NATO and the US deep state ignored all the warnings because they wanted to provoke a proxy war.
Georgia: In the same year of 2008, leader Saakashvili attacked Russian "peacekeeper" troops in South Ossetia thinking that NATO would save him. He was wrong and his army was quickly defeated. The EU issued a report about this short war. It concluded that Georgia provoked it.
Ukraine: In 2014 they overthrew the Russia-friendly government in Kiev and immediately moved to suppress language rights for Russian and Hungarian speakers, then burned Russian-speakers alive in Odessa, waged a civil war against Russian speakers in Donbass, refused to implement the peace agreement they signed (Minsk II), and invited NATO. "Totally unprovoked", you see.
>代わりにウクライナやジョージアやバルト三国などCountries are not all equal. We do not live in a Westphalian world. Small countries don't like the rough treatment? Be friendly and don't invite a foreign military onto the borders of your more powerful neighbor. Simple as.
Otherwise, for consistency, you should cry about Cuba as well.
>アメリカに抵抗を促す代わりにウクライナの抵抗が否定するNonsense. Ukraine is not a victim here (except of its own stupidity) and it's neither fighting for liberation nor independence. It fights for the interests of NATO, not its own, which would have been best served by remaining a neutral state.
Japan is an occupied country. The Ukraine was not occupied by Russia until it deliberately chose to antagonize it. Can you not see the difference? Also, I do not "抵抗を促す", I simply point out that you're the hypocrite (and coward) who pretends to care about the sovereignty of far-away countries while you don't have courage to do anything for your own.
