Meanwhile the army looked pathetic surrounded by tanks and robot dogs. They had to march for an old man's birthday who felt the need to lie about what the march was for. He tried to goad protesters to come because he couldn't get any crowds.

Shout out to the organizers yesterday who had some really smart ideas like not protesting the parade and switching to the "no kings" slogan from being against "oligarchy".

Keep organizing and keep at it.

I think I can speak for the majority of Canadians when I say we will never, ever become the 51st state. Wanna keep Canada frothing at the mouth about the US then keep on with that annexing tripe. Elbows up! never 51st.

Homie, we want to be 11th providence. I don't even want to be in the first 50 states.

You understand a north america union is different from a statehood.

If it involves the US in any way it’s a no from me.

Hate to tell you but we really need to think as the world as one race. Or we can stick to the nationalist angle. Really working out in middle east, china, us, russia, western africa......

You did not say the world needs to be one race. You said there needs to be a North American union. Don’t change the playing field. It’s just dumb.

[–] Bluefalcon@discuss.tchncs.de -1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

You understand that YOU said statehood. I said union, like Europe's. Each country still runs their own country.

[–] Bebopalouie@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 day ago

I want nothing to do with the now American fascist country that locks up their own citizens. I have written off the US forever. I don’t care if your states a union or whatever you want to call yourselves. Go away. We don’t need you and no we are not playing cards. I have nothing more to say to you.

Split America into 10 equal chunks and form a new union between them first. Let's see what happens when people are free to vote with their feet and their tax money follows.

The moment any sort of new union was on the table. California, Oregon and Washington would split from the US and form their own independent one. Loooong before they'd want to team up again with several of the deep red states.

a north america union

yeah it's all the bullshit of statehood without the representation. the entire premise is idiotic, facile, and you should be embarrassed for endorsing it.
