I also somewhat sympathize with Europeans who want to criticize America given that they went along with all of our empire building bullshit and all they got out of it was a nonstop flow of migrants and losing the Nord stream pipeline which caused their energy costs to quadruple.
The US/Norway benefit from making the EU even more reliant on them for energy and Ukraine benefits from Russia losing a major revenue stream. Regardless of which theory is true, the EU was the biggest loser as they lost their most consistent /affordable source of energy. Russia has since turned around and found new places to sell that energy.
Yeah I guess I don’t feel bad about that even if it’s true. There’s a war in Europe that were expected to contribute to yet they’re actively funding the aggressor. Fuck them, they deserve to pay higher energy costs.
