Its not expansionist because you have to request to join

Bzzzzt wrong. NATO is expansionist because it pressures non-member states and routinely starts proxy wars.

The only countries whose wishes you're referring to are nations who want to invade potential NATO members.

Bzzzzzt wrong. Western Hegemony damages the Global South and NATO keeps member-states unaccountable.

You're accusing America of causing Russian annexation of Crimea and subsequent war on Ukraine?

You think Russia is working for NATO?

Pressuring people into a mutual defence pact lol such an evil thing lol
