And whose government and system is doing that? Eastern-EU countries are considered to be the most anti-russian, yet their governments are mainly concentrated on trying to convince their citizens and countries that they are diehard europeans and not USSR or something and generally dont show open hostility towards their eastern neibhour unless it shows it first in large quantities and show almost 0 hostility towards their russian minorities. If some guys are hardcore pro-NATO its due to their choice, but frankly I havent really seen a person who is pro-NATO, majority of people here are just meh about it and quite sure its the same in majority of EU. So yea......unless NATO cant propaganda properly or its just not trying very hard.....
And before you say Ukr government is doing that. Id like to remind you that Ukr doesnt really count. Since they are more or less at state of war with Russia. People do tend to fall into extremes during times of war.
Being anti-Russian for the sake of being pro-Polish nationalists, pro Ukrainian nationalists or whatever nationalist normally drives people to support their nations armed forces, armed forces under control of an alliance headed by the U.S called NATO.
These nationalists allow their governments to justify at least domestically the conflicts and sabre rattling against Russia, its allies and other sovereign states in the world, and therefore allows the government to follow NATO agenda freely which is being headed by another nation not elected by the peoples within that member state. The EU is merely the European domestic face of NATO, where as NATO the military face. There are multiple occasions where NATO states establish a geopolitical narrative and publically cite support for their actions through this narrative, from humanitarian, to defence, whether it be attacking and invading Iraq, or Afghanistan, or overthrowing Gaddafi, supplying terrorists in Syria, from fellow member states.The undemocratic NATO alliance dictates what our governments do and don't do in the bigger picture of politics.
So in the end dumb nationalists end up serving the interests of their foreign masters rather than their own people and completely undermine the values they purport to base their beliefs and political views on. This reality unfortunately means the poor will continue to pay the price, shooting themselves in the foot, become a nationalist and support an agenda headed by another nation, undermine your own democracy and sovereignty, the poor will continue to die for the rich.
