Oh wow, it's the tankie version of US exceptionalism where the US controls everything and is all powerful.

The US had like zero influence in the baltics when they joined, same for Georgia when they wanted to join.

Not sure how farmer protests are involved but I hope you know that the vast majority of farmers in those protests are just people who own the farm. They don't actually work those farms and the protests so far have been against climate regulations that cut into their profit margin.
