I mean just to be clear since half the population seems to not understand -

NATO doesn’t recruit to expand and take over territory. Its a voluntary agreement to join.

i don't even think nato does propaganda. maybe one or two of the member states, but i've never seen so much as a flyer praising nato.

Perhaps they outsmarted you by using techniques more advanced than leafleting

[-] breadsmasher@lemmy.world 4 points 3 months ago

imagine the simple life; where the only propaganda/marketing you ever see is just a leaflet

I mean the US military-industrial complex does plenty of pro-NATO propaganda.

Not to mention it was collecting dust before Putin made it relevant again. German army was literally substituting broomsticks for rifles in training.

AND Putin has every right to try to restart the Warsaw Pact... Except he knows he won't get memberships... Because it's a waste of money... Because no eastern nation is under threat from the west...

You realise NATO has a "strategic communications" division?

[-] essell@lemmy.world 12 points 3 months ago

Ironically, this is propaganda.

Nice try Russia.

There comes a time when one realizes that, without The Joker around, Bruce Wayne is just another billionaire bleeding the people of Gotham from the shadows so he can play monster hunter until Mommy & Daddy come home.

Tell me you only watched the Nolanverse movies without telling me you only watched the Nolanverse movies.

Tell me you think Batman is a movie franchise without saying you're too young to know better. 🥲

Ukraine interested in joining since 2014 too.

[-] lennybird@lemmy.world 14 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Ukraine seeks to join NATO because Russia threatens invasion.

Russia threatens Ukraine that if they join NATO they will invade. (as Ukraine is slowly being invaded by Russia's unmarked troops, BTW)

Ukraine pledges to Russia they won't so long as Russia doesn't invade.

Russia invades anyway.

Meanwhile Russia never attacks a NATO country. Golly, I wonder why.
