    It was. I wasn’t suggesting that the Soviet Union and other Allied Powers shouldn’t be included.

    I am suggesting that there is a major failure currently and many Americans are hoping that the EU can support some kind of fix. I’m not even suggesting it is realistic, but we have no other options.

    The EU is welcome to share that fix with the Soviet Union (…).

      I mean there are other options. But people are lazy and hope others well save them.

        Indeed. It’s not exactly a tit-for-tat situation where the Jewish and minority citizens were fleeing for their lives and applying for foreign visas left and right in the 1930s.

        People aren’t hiding in someone else’s attic, they’re still scrolling Xitter in their living rooms even though they swore they’d delete their account 6 months ago, while ‘second screening’ some outwardly fascist subscription service on their tv, liking posts about the last national protest that they “couldn’t attend” because their boss asked if they could cover a shift that day.

        If you guys truly need saving by this point, you sure are sending a lot of mixed messages to the world at large about it right now.
