The concept of the EU has always been very bizzare to me. Citizens of different nations of the European union act with a lot of fraternity and openness to each other, almost as if they were all from one same country. This unity and solidarity and fraternity is something very, very, VERY new in European history. For the longest time ever they were at each other's throats locked in timeless, bloody, mortal Kombat, as a consequences they have a metric fuck ton of historic events that mark days of national celebration, pride, rejoice and celebration for one country and national mourning for others.Take the battle of the Somme in WW1 for example. German dicks have been scientifically proven to get hard 102% of the time when they hear about how the British and french SLOWLY walked into German machine gun fire by the tens of thousands whereas the french psychologically breakdown and start weeping bitterly when told the exact same story.How do yuropeons reconcile the contradictions of nationalist with the EU unifying project? Or they simply don't adress this and are just praying and hoping to god Germans for once don't start getting any funny ideas.
>>221364589>mortal Kombat,heh
America created and enforced the EU to make our job of keeping them from killing each other and focused on the Russian threat easier
>>221364629Can you fuck off? God, you're annoying! The microphone had been given to the yuropeons. Can you let go of the spotlight for ONE fucking second?? Not EVERYTHING is about you!
That's a pretty ahistoric view of historic history. For most of this time European powers, all ruled by the same 3 familes were locked in a balance of power with each other in dynamic alliances. The EU is just the same shit just under a institutional umbrella.
>>221364709Humor me, I'll put you in a scenario and you tell me how you would resolve it.Suppose you're in Germany with Two other German friends and with you are a Belgian and a Frenchman and the topic shifts to early 20th century military battles in Europe. One of your friends gets too apologetic about Germany's phenomenal performance despite all odds and despite the defeat in the end and is sucking up to the Frenchman and the Belgian so they don't think he's a nationalist while the other German friends acknowledges the ideological bankruptcy of authoritarianism in German history but is proud of the historic German grit, resilience, resourcefulness, resolve, and guts they've shown in both world wars and couldn't care less if this offends the other two foreigners and even if they think he's a nationalist or even a nazi.Your friends ask you what you think about the topic, Which position do you take?
