Sweden has formally joined NATO as the 32nd member of the transatlantic military alliance, ending decades of post-World War II neutrality and centuries of broader non-alignment.
I did not and was not comparing the power of NATO to Russia.
You said “[PUTIN] can’t even win a war in a small country right next to his.”
I pointed out that this was false, as evidenced by the number of small countries next to his that he’s already annexed or invaded. Even Ukraine hasn’t been able to repel Russia even with western aid.
I am not moving the goalposts, I am trying to put things into context rather then nitpicking every single sentence and strawmaning every argument. I speak in general terms, as I am not a robot. Everything I say is in a general political context.
Expecting you to mean what you actually said is not a strawman.
If you meant something else then clarify rather than argue an amorphous moving general vibe.

Please stop trying to move the goalposts.
