Pierre and Scheer has a lot to say about freedom of speech but get real quiet when Canadians get threatened.

Are they going to start sanctioning individuals all over the world? They did it with the judge in the Bolsonaro case, and it caused problems in Brazil generally. I suppose if they do it to large numbers of people outside of the US, it would end up forcing countries to stop cooperating generally with the US.

Side note, by her own definitions, JKR is illiberal. She is a fundamentalist. She is a totalitarian. And she definitely believes that some of her "political" opponents, trans people, should be punished with violence and death. What a telling post.

And PP sucks as usual.

it would end up forcing countries to stop cooperating generally with the US.

Trump's actions (and those of the people he appointed) have already set that in motion.

Governments around the world are making agreements among themselves to avoid doing business with the US.

The boycott USA movement is citizen led and is growing across the world.

The Americans will find themselves increasingly irrelevant on the world stage, though they may not bother to notice for a while.
