Inb4 Trump, the supposed “best ally and biggest contributor of Ukraine” throws a rage fit citing all sorts of dumb reasons we unsurprisingly will already have heard from Putin’s mouth.

That’s the thing with ignorance. Everyone around is well aware, except for the ignoramus itself. And left unchecked it can quickly go from a nuisance to a real danger.
I mean, yeah. Any good dictatorship encourages people to tell on their ‘fellow’ neighbors. For either side.
If a MAGA tells on an anti-MAGA neighbor, they’ll go for the latter.
If an anti-MAGA reports a MAGA, the regime also appreciates the self-snitching by the former.

Yes, that’s excellent. We need our own Google suite. Fingers crossed so that it may come eventually.
Do try. The more you try to split us apart the more we unite against common foes.
We Europeans might bicker a lot and not see eye to eye on some things, but our lands still bear the scars of mankind’s worst moments. We know better and see right past the vain attempts at manipulation.
And yeah, we have some dumbass extreme-right parties in many countries (including mine) being heavily funded and/or encouraged by Russia and the US, just like we saw with Germany’s AfD. But we’re already taking measures against that sort of influence, thankfully.
Yeah… Agreed. One bad and aggressive statement often takes a whole lot of diplomacy to reconcile. And we should know, just look at Trump crashing the US soft power built over decades in a matter of weeks.
I firmly believe some MAGA somewhere is out there right now expecting a loan approval to buy the most expensive Tesla out there, not knowing an unemployment letter is already being typed out.
One can hope for such poetic justice.
Understandable. They do support Canada, but politics are usually a subtle game, and since the orangutan has less tact than caveman they do better avoiding to upset him with open and confrontational support.
Not like he’s prone to notice such subtleties without someone pointing them out to him on a full powerpoint presentation anyway.
That’s what happens when you give a toddler access to the nukes. Being tactful is a must, until unavoidable.
Yup. This is not just about who gets to lead Canada, it’s also about who can protect it against foreign malicious interference. Now more than ever.
It’s time for cohesion, both internally and with allies, not division. When the enemy is at your doorstep trying to get in, you forget petty disagreements (in comparison, at least) and stand together.
Did someone else hear a shout that sounded like “I’m not special!😭”? Down south?
Eh, must’ve been the wind.
What happened to the whole “let them fight each other, we don’t need to be there” speech?
Probably the same that happened to all other “on day one” speeches, I assume.
Heck yeah. Go Carney.

What she did is what everyone in her situation should do - not just if your visa is revoked, but if you are one of the target minorities.
It’s hard to get your life turned upside down and leave your comfort overnight, and very unfair. But you don’t want to let them make the first move on you.
As hard as leaving everything behind feels, the chance of being imprisoned and being powerless in case democracy falls and tyranny begins is far, far worse.
Many people who chose not to flee newly-formed totalitarian regimes lived to regret that choice dearly. As did those who didn’t have the choice to begin with.
Escape to safety, then denounce and seek justice and restitution. Safety first, always.
Sadly, yes. I mean, Trump knows he’s ‘close’ to his grave and needs to leave some kind of legacy - even if it’s the Hitler kind of one - his narcissistic self just wants to enter them history books as one of the big humans instead of ‘another rich guy’ as a footnote.
Pretty sure either Elon or Vance are already lined up for when the time comes. When Trump leaves the world, and when there’s no longer actual rules preventing them from taking over and ‘fixing’ under martial law what big bad orange wrecked. At least according to them, that is.
No matter how bad what they’re doing seems this is just the preparation stage. Things can become so, so much worse, and the more we let them consolidate power the tougher it’ll be to fight it later.
And some will defend them as hardworking people who worked day in and day out for their wealth.
I’m sorry, no intention to depreciate your effort or success, but if you are building a super-yatch and your employees still have to pee in bottles you are greedy scum who doesn’t deserve success. There’s more than enough success to distribute part of it into happy employees who like to work for you, while still leaving you nasty rich.
No one needs untold amounts of wealth, and frankly there should be a cap at “fuck you money” level. Once you can spend “fuck you money” you know damn well you don’t need any more, you just need to maintain yourself there.
Yes, yes, every piece slowly falls into place. *Cue maniacal villain laughter
It’s like they actually studied history, to try and replicate the desired results as identically as possible. Or they didn’t, at all, and this is just 2+2=4 scenario but with history.
‘He’s underwater on everything’ - except the one way that matters the most.
Anything other than US, specially from Colombia, which was among the first to be publicly humiliated by Trump.
