LOOOOOOOL. 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣
The vacillating back and forth is wild. "NATO sucks" "but we didn't need them", "the fight is won" "but they won't help us continue it", "a simple military maneuver" "but we need their help with it but it's so easy to do with so little risk but we don't need their help". Reminds me of the old "the enemy is strong and weak at the same time" aspect associated with fascism.
This is more so pure panic and desperation rather than fascist rhetorical focus switching. You can tell that the only plan they had blew up catastrophically in their faces and now there is no plan B, and they are scrambling from one improvised response to the next but they're only digging the hole they are in deeper.
If even the European NATO members, the biggest cucks in the world who love nothing more than doubling down on a lost cause until the bitter end (Ukraine), can see this is a doomed gambit that they absolutely don't want to be involved in and dragged down along with, then you know things are well and truly fucked.
