Our Western decadence is our downfall they claim but our downfall makes us look Russian. It is the logic from the smooth brains who claim they invaded a country that put them closer to NATO because they're scared NATO is getting closer to their border.

Balance of power politics. Russia lost its sphere of influence over Ukraine when the CIA did a western-back coupe in 2014 (victoria nuland was the mastermind).

USA knew that this could probably cause Russia to invade. And then Russia did invade.
