- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

As a western European, I fucking wish, but you're too hopeful for that. NATO is exclusively a force for evil, and the only interventions that it's carried out are the bombing of Yugoslavia and the bombing of Libya, the latter resulting in a decade of civil wars that destroyed the formerly most prosperous country in Africa. Extraofficially (not technically NATO), also the invasion of Iraq. How is literally any of that good.
The US has never been anything different from that. It's based on the genocide of natives, on slavery of imported Africans, and the decisions made at the government are consistently against the will and the interests of the majority.
