How likely is Ukraine to turn on NATO? (lemmygrad.ml)

I find John Mearsheimer's prediction that Russia seeks to turn Ukraine into a inert rump state as a bulwark against NATO to be convincing. Given the apparent lack of military vitality of the west, and the indefinite delayed entry of Ukraine into NATO, the fate of Ukraine seems pretty clear. The Ukranian military command must see the writing on the wall and must also perceive NATO's wavering material support after treating Ukranians as sacrificial pawns.

As the deceit of NATO becomes undeniable, even to Ukranians, how likely are we to see Nazis march west? What factors are involved? Imagining we see Ukraine turn on NATO, what would a NATO response look like, and what would this do to the information war? Do you think Zelelenski would still be the nominal leader at this point?

Oops, totally misread it as joining NATO. I think in terms of sentiment it's pretty likely that they will. However, it's not clear that they could fight in Europe without the material support, unless they've been husbanding weapons and ammunition in anticipation of this. What I think would be more likely is that a lot of well trained nazis are going to seep into Europe and operate terror cells there linking up with local groups. I imagine that's already been happening, but once Ukraine starts getting routed in the East, there's going to be a flood of these people moving into Europe.

The blowback from this war is going to be absolutely frightening.

Not too long ago here in Mexico news appeared about some narcos with weapons (apparently ATGMs or some similar stuff) that supposedly were originally supplied to Ukraine from one of the nordic countries. Don't know if the story made it to international outlets, but if it's true the blowback is already here. I can only imagine the kind of shit is going to go down throughout the rest of europe once the equipment and training the most deranged members of the AFU start bleeding into Borrel's beloved "garden".

Agreed, I don't think Europeans realize what they got themselves into yet.
