Canadians: Greenland must be the line in the sand. Non negotiable.

    Dear Canada:

    Issue a warrant for Miller and his fascist wife and abduct them in the middle of the night.

    Apparently we will just go with it now.

    This is done because there are no consequences, no repercussions. A convicted felon and rapist is in charge instead of in jail. The checks and balances of their system have long since failed.

    Venezuela should have been the line. Want to make it Greenland? So, they can take mexico, Cuba?

    Each inch they take is too much. They have proven that they are following the Fascist guidebook.

    Venezuela is the first step. Same as Hitler with Poland.

      Greenland is arguably under NATO protection. Cuba is not, and there are in fact many groups of Cubans in the US who support an invasion of Cuba, I’m not going to get involved with that bullshit.

      As for Mexico, I’m saddened by the lack of an informal alliance between the two countries. As much as I wish it weren’t so, I’ve not seen any indication from Mexico that they would stand with us. An invasion of Mexico would be an enormous step that would justify ramping up sanctioning behavior, but for me, as a Canadian, the line in the sand should be Greenland. Meaning if Greenland is ever directly attacked, we are in a war stance. We cut off everything to the US, sell all the Tbonds, nationalize all strategic resources (oil, media, telecom, water, hydro, food, potash, critical minerals), seize assists and nationalize all patents. I would recommend we also look for any alliance with China.

      THAT’S what I mean by a line in the sand. We cut them off and dig in.

      Edit… Hey if you disagree tell me why, stand up for yourself don’t just downvote and move on.

        US is in NATO so it doesn’t matter, to be honest NATO without US doesn’t exists because it’s EU, UK, US and Canada, that’s why EU wants Canada in and to be honest Canada should join to keep itself inside old union. US is heading towards BRICS right now.

          Ironically I think joining BRICS would be a great move for the EU right now, both as an immediate out from the dollar based economic order and to pretty much jam soft power crowbar into BRICS itself that might turn it into a more open economic union and not just Chinas (and Russia playing with an unplugged controllers) sphere of influence.

          That said I’m probably missing a TON of nuance that makes my take basic and dumb.

        I am Mexican Canadian.

        Mexico hasn’t forgotten about all the stolen territory. Yes, they call it sale and secession and whatever, it was stolen.

        If I put a gun to your head and ask you to sell me a property you have for $10. You are going to do it. I’d say I purchased it. I’m sure you’ll say I stole it.

        So, why do disagree?

        Because of the wise reflection of “first they came for the…”

        Well. If we don’t stand against them taking over Venezuela, who is going to stand with us when they try to take over us (Greenland, Canada, Mexico and the rest)

        The manifest Destiny is no joke.

    You don’t get it.

    The people posting shit like that WANT TO KILL.

    They are bloodthirsty. They are warmongers. They want a bodycount.

    There’s nothing more to realize about the joke because it’s not a joke.

    America is ruled by murderers.

    We know it’s not a joke. The three most populated cities in the US are in deep blue states and full of people who don’t want this. For everyone in those cities, it would take days and hundreds, if not thousands of dollars, to travel to the White House. Most of us are behind on rent, have had our cars repossessed, don’t make a living wage, don’t have healthcare, and have unsustainable credit card debt.

    Outside of a very vocal minority, the American people are overwhelmingly united around the fact that we don’t want this to happen.

    However, the American people aren’t in control of the American government, and the American government are overwhelmingly united around corporate interests.

    We already realize that, you have to understand there’s multiple groups in the USA with varying views on what’s going on. Not everyone is with the fascists or apathetic to it. People calling for us to start armed rebellion in the streets of the USA do not understand the social dynamics nor general size such would have to be. I’m okay with fascists being afraid but until we have a strong majority, especially the apathetic, to agree, they’ll be labeled terrorists by the state as well as all our main media.

      I don’t, but also I’m fucking doing it. It takes all of five minutes. You’ve got the time to do it. You might as well. It can only help. It won’t solve the problem, but it will make it harder for them.

    Americans know. They just don’t have any idea what to do, and no single person can solve the problem.

      The country that has spent a couple centuries dining out on its founding national mythology of knowing EXACTLY what to do somehow doesn’t know what to do.

      You know what to do- you’re just a bunch of fucking cowards who are more concerned about not risking your relative comfort.

          As I said- cowards.

          Spend your life sucking up the privilege that being an American affords you and then turn tail and run while those who can’t run have to stay and suffer.

            That’s not being a coward. This country has never done anything for me, why should I do anything for it? What kind of absolute dumb fuck moron would say to themselves, I was born here, so that’s who I am, And that’s all I will ever be!

    Miller is the ghoul behind a lot of the worst of what the government is doing. Trump is bad, but he’s an idiot. Miller knows what he’s doing and has a plan.

    I am just waiting to see the mental gymnastics the regular US people will go through when they will be asked to fight vs EU people and they will just go with it.
