High-tech western military investments in an age of Russian aggression is actually a good thing to do. And it's even European instead of US or Israel.
I see no reason not to fully support this. Sure, a pacifist world would be awesome, but that would require a lot of things to happen that are not realistic at all. The alternative to european defense investments is not peace, it's death and oppression.
Weapons, but especially digital weapons, will always be turned upon their subordinate populace if it suits the oligarchy
