Also this kinda remind me when nazis were collecting prepays for VW beetle, but then the party bosses stole it and the only thing that got produced were kubelwagens for the army.

Germany doesn't want to defend against usa, they want to be nazis for their yankee fuhrers

So far this isn’t anything like that period in German history.

Seeing the rise of AfD and Germany's agressive collaboration on the Israeli genocide, I have to respectfully say, liberals like you are willfully burying your heads in the sand.

Poland has been doing more than its share for Europe defense

Europe's defense against who? Europe faces no actual military threats from anybody. And no, civilians in the imperial periphery or immigrants don't count as military threats. For the last 3-4 centuries, the only nations who have been killing Europeans are other Europeans.

Americans are more likely to invade Europe than help them in a conflict.

Even Trump, who is trying to shake down Europe has actually continued/resumed aid to Ukraine. I can't believe that Europeans are falling for a con from the world's greasiest clown. He only postures so that you guys are scared into spending more money on NATO and American weapons.
