Please don't. We need all the help we can get.
Your country is actively attacking our democracies and is threatening war over an European oversea territory.
We need all the help we can get.
Help with what? We cannot resist for you. That is something you have to do yourself outside of social media.
Yeah. I thought that after election, the insane clown president would screw Europe by stoping support for Ukraine and supporting the russian bear instead. I didn't, in my darkest dreams expect him to actually threaten to attack his allies and let his dog fund the actual fascists in Europe, undermining the stability in the classic russian mixed warfare style.
Gotta help ourselves first. Why should they give aid for a fight we are unwilling to wage?
I don't blame any country that doesn't want to help us, we've been screwing over other countries for a long time. We need to fix our shit here before we reenter the global stage. We need to start producing quality things and people again, we need to have a more humanitarian posture on the world strange. Unfortunately, very few currently aligned with the power structure here is on board with that, so they need to go as well.
I'm pinning my hopes on Gen-Z. Boomers are dying, us Gen-X were too influenced my Boomers, Millenials... well, I really hope Gen-Z has their collective shit together by the time they're running things.
Truth be told, I don't think we have time to wait for gen z to come of age. I don't think we even have 10 years before shit gets hairy here.
I personally think it's too late, but I get jumped on for being a "doomer," so I try to stay outwardly optimistic.
But, yeah: we're doomed.
I mean, I don't think we're all gonna die, but I do think life will radically change in a less than favorable direction, and some people may die at the hands of assholes.
You mean you need tariffs and want to get rid of Greenland?
Maybe @sxan@midwest.social is speaking on behalf of America.
I certainly was!
Any EU citizens want to swap passports with me?
I mean Elizabeth May was shooting too low by offering that Canada take Washington, Oregon, and California. I was offended! Why not Minnesota?? We share a border and a Great Lake, and most of Canada's population already lives South of Minneapolis/St. Paul! Why weren't we invited?
