Perhaps the world's collective sane countries can scrap enough cash together to hire Luigi

    Except for Israel. They're pretty safe from Trump.

    Yeah no shit. If they're antagonizing of us all people who would possibly be safe?

    Being allies with the USA is getting pretty meaningless.

    Speaking as a US citizen, I'm terrified of the rhetoric the leaders of my country are spewing right now. It feels like a preamble to open war against multiple peaceful allies. He has surrounded himself with sycophants that are urging him on. Hopefully your government is meeting with other world leaders and making appropriate plans. This shit is crazy.

    I wish Americans would do more. I don't support any kind of harm but there has to be SOMETHING the people can do to get that orange asshole and first lady musk out.

    Some Scottish guy was trying to give me advice to blow up highways to block off access to Canada. Reddit nuked the comment. One of the reasons I’m here.

    P.S. This isn’t something I’m planning on doing or anything. I just didn’t like the comment taken away from me.

    As someone who lives in Canada, I'm hoping we'll be hard to invade the same way Russia is hard to invade. As in, all these US troops who train in Texas and Florida probably won't be conditioned to handle doing stuff when it's -40C outside, so we can all just head north and hope they get stuck and give up lol.

    Also, and Americans don't seem to like it when I say this so apologies in advance, but the US is historically not great at winning wars IMO. They're great at starting them, but it almost always seems to end up in a quagmire that just drags on for ages and then gets abandoned. So that's pretty much how I imagine this would go too.

    America can only really win wars with the consent of the public. An America-Canada war would have very little support from the beginning.

    Malcom Nance seems to think that it would lead to a second American Civil War. Regardless, such a war would have a high cost with zero benefit for the average American. Even most conservatives don’t want to deal with such a war.

    Nobody wants a war. They are compelled. Either by their masters, or because they're backed into a corner.

    Never have been. Security is an illusion, and the only real difference between now and before is that the illusion is shattered.

    The working class should purchase and train with firearms.

    Nation states should build nukes.

    Welcome to the shitter multiverse where everything sucks and everyone wants you to die so they can take your shit.

    Get a vasectomy.

    The pathethic loser response of amplifying losing war on Russia instead of allying with Russia is dividing and pitting allies against each other and against Mexico. Military cooperation against China interests is still amplifying. (Canada defense pact with Philippines is actually the more likely vector for war on China than Taiwan).

    US overtures to Russia are tied to Israel dominance. Disarming Iran in exchange for pacifying Ukraine.

    Extremely simple coordinated policy is to ensure US made cars go up $10k+ in cost. Export tariffs on materials and Canadian energy, matched by Europe. No manufacturing in US, no US weapons purchases. Kill Boeing, Caterpillar, Deere exports. Destroy US agriculture competitiveness with Canadian Potash export tariffs. Get Asian colonies on board by flirting with North Korea, including using them as a nuclear shield.

    No one was ever safe from US. The pathethic losers who chose sycophancy to US empire, still have the choice to stop being oppressed losers. That path is not through half measures of believing propaganda on accepting the US's enemies as its own, and their 5th column traitors that keep repeating the propaganda.

    allying with Russia

    Russia is as untrustworthy as Trump. Alliance with Russia promises nothing good.

    West is untrustworthy towards Russia to higher level. Stopping hatred of war is first step to building trust. Somehow in 2014, Germans had enough trust to finance Nordstream 2, while simultaneously playing the Minsk accords as a delay tactic to arm Ukraine. So there is definitely a deranged mismanagement of their evil.

    The obviousness to a 5 year old, is countries should side against those threatening war and extortion and not against those who do not, and whose enemy status and hatred is entirely manufactured by propaganda of your enemy.
