Thats not how logic works.

By the logic I presented, if we were merely connected to Canada or Mexico by those economic deals, we wouldnt be allies with them

That is right.

Our relationship with both of those countries is significantly larger than that, however.

Unlike Russias relationship with any country that is not a client state. Iran perhaps being an exception.
Before NAFTA, Canada and Mexico were allies basically by virtue of geography. And even today we antagonize one of them and blame them for illegal immigration, despite benefiting greatly from it. China has been an ally of Russia outside of economic ties for almost a century. Even if we ignore just China, what do you think BRICS is?

However you spin it, Russia isn't just some backwoods underdeveloped nation that's a pariah state. Governments are hypocrites and they work with Russia and make backdoor deals despite sanctions on it for breaking international law. Just like we espouse the values of human rights and democracy while we have the highest prison population on the planet and facilitate genocide and coups. There are no good guys and bad guys; just innocent people dying for hypocritical old CACs

absolutely. Lets not forget russia has allies with weapons too.
You seem to forget Russia is not Israel. They are fighting a war of attrition in Unkraine, not annihilation.

Israel uses more munitions than they could ever create, draining the global supply. Russia is being tactical in Ukraine because unlike Israel, they realize even if they win, they will have millions of Ukranian neighbors and they probably shouldnt murder their families and level entire cities.

You also aren't accounting for technology. Russia gives pretty subpar stuff to syria, lebanon, etc. Now they might decide to unload a bunch of hypersonics and anti-air tech.

No one has tried to invade Russia in 70 years for a reason, and it ain't nukes.

Not only are you seriously overestimating Russia's military and technical capabilities, you're also downplaying their behaviour towards Ukrainians.

It was only a few days ago they murdered POW's. They've raped and murdered innocent women and kids in towns all over Ukraine, but yeah, they've been kind to them cause it's their neighbours :heh:

By that logic, us paying higher tariffs for Canadian lumber and Mexican manufactured cars makes us suckers and NAFTA a shyt deal
1. The US is the one imposing the tariffs…. This isn't a case of Canada using us like China and India are using Russia … do you even understand what tariffs are?

:gucci:

2. Tariffs on Mexican cars is also another policy that the US chose to impose. Why would the US choosing to levy tariffs make it a sucker? Again… do you even understand what tariffs are and how they work? This is sad

Because these are our supposed allies, retard. But no, you're right Trump levying higher tariffs on Canada and Biden keeping that shyt is genius. We're winning and so are our "allies". You want contractors to build more with higher price lumber from here and not Canada, that makes sense. You want manufacturers to pay higher rates for American workers and not Mexican ones, yep.. that will work out well for the consumers here, just ask Tesla. I don't think you know how this shyt works.

You really know nothing about history huh breh? :russ:
where are you great value, no name brand losers coming from. i dont even know you :skip:

at least i know these other idiots attempting to condescend. who the fukk are you

Russia has been indiscriminately shelling civilian areas since the war broke out.
