Every country in NATO has lost their sovereignty except the US, because every country in NATO has effectively outsourced its national defense to the US. And that model doesn't even work well for the Americans.
Finland just fucked itself by choosing a side when they could have remained politically neutral, which is all the Russians wanted from them. It's all the Russians wanted from Ukraine, too, but our glorious leaders couldn't stop financing coups and installing leaders more favorable to them.
You are deliberately and dishonestly conflating Russians and Soviets as if they're the same thing. The USSR was an ideological, expansionist globalist power that more readily resembles the monstrosity that has subsumed the West in the past couple of decades. Russia is a regional power with a strong sense of nationalism that has reacted to incessant provocations from NATO in the only rational way it could. If NATO didn't want this to happen, then it should have stayed the fuck away from Ukraine.

Some populist leftist on Jimmy Dore had a fairly brilliant comment.
There are no coups in the US because the US does not have an American embassy.

George Kennan, the architect of the Cold War, said the following:
“Don’t people understand? Our differences in the Cold War were with the Soviet Communist regime. And now we are turning our backs on the very people who mounted the greatest bloodless revolution in history to remove that Soviet regime. And Russia’s democracy is as far advanced, if not farther, as any of these countries we’ve just signed up to defend from Russia. Of course, there is going to be a bad reaction from Russia, and then [the NATO expanders] will say that we always told you that is how the Russians are — but this is just wrong.”
Unfortunately, his differences may have been with communist totalitarianism, but American differences were always about Realpolitik.

Considering Russia has always been attacking them, or provoking them... I think sides were already picked.
Besides, why appease the loudmouthed bully? Did it work with BLM? Did it work with Antifa and BLM in Seattle and CHAZ? Did it work with the cuckery of Nazi Germany? After all what is one insignificant country like austria, just give it to the Nazis... Poland? Bah! Give it to the Nazis! France? Insignificant! give it to the Nazis! England? Insignificant too! Maybe the Nazis would stop at England!
Russia and the soviets are still the same. They are still expansionist. They are still belligerent.
NATO provoked Russia by continuing to exist after the USSR collapsed along with NATO's professed reason for existing. It also did so by expanding into former Soviet countries after promising the Russian leadership they wouldn't.
This behaviour put booster rockets on Russian nationalism, which was on the ebb in the 90s, and actually paved Putin's road to power.
Your efforts to paint the Western globalists as the good guys here are not grounded in reality.
The only expansionist superpower for the better part of the last century has been the US. It is only in the more recent decades we've seen China come into their own.

Where has NATO provoked them? I can in turn share many, many, many facts and evidence of Russia actually provoking NATO.
In fact, I have collected quite a few throughout the years!

Well, Russia provoked all the other countries by continuing to exist...
Russians are globalists. They keep provoking other countries. I proved it.
The only expansionist superpower for the better part of the last century has been the US. It is only in the more recent decades we've seen China come into their own.
No you didn't.
This is a provocation.
