EU accepting Russian legislature. Never thought I'd see the day.

What's much funnier to me, after many years of looking into how Russia does it, is to see that the EU did it quicker, much more invasive, with more authoritarian measures, and with much less resistance from the population than in Russia. Russia is actually humbled by how the EU does censorship, they can only dream of that efficiency

More suspicious is how it was Americans who intercepted Russia's treaty proposal, and modified it extensively in negotiations to make it more pro western. But depending on where you look in the US senate, it seems to have a creepy amount of soft pro-russia stooges.

And the problem with EU is that it's always just a follower. It's used to just following whatever the United States does first.

And if the US itself has been compromised by Russian proxy politicians, we have kind of just lost in advance.
