I wont go to the US unless im going as a part of a military operation. Every single magat needs to be gone before the US can be redeemed.

Amen. Being self employed for too long has made me never want to work for someone else again, although I probably could if I needed to. But I don't feel comfortable right now taking on a big job that has any kind of significant upfront costs.

Not at the moment. But let's say hypothetically we become the 51st state, and you are ordered to arrest someone or shoot someone who is an insurgent, would you do it?

That's awesome. Id come drop off a resume if I wasn't on the opposite side of the country.

Those jobs that got moved overseas, generally were replaced with much better jobs. Value added complex manufacturing, tech, service, research, healthcare. No one wants to mine coal or manufacture widgets. Of course some people slipped through the cracks and we have wealth inequality, so we should pay taxes (especially the rich) to fund a social safety net.

historically that seems to be what always happens

Ya honestly Trump is so fucking stupid that it's starting to feel like he's doing a bit. Like is he mocking his own supporters at this point? I think the world needs to respond to trump with something exactly like this. Infinite tariff loop is actually a policy I would support unironically.

The argument seems to be "I think free trade is bad. It led to a shitload of prosperity for everyone involved, but now that people are projecting their personal grievances onto free trade and undermining it by electing an isolationist nationalist, things are going to get worse. Told ya so." Feels like hella cope to me lol.

 

I'm a construction worker/builder between jobs right now, and I haven't felt like I am capable of making any kind of decision what direction to go in life for the past 2 months. I am curios is anyone has thoughts on switching industries/jobs based on the Trump trade war/annexation. My only idea right now is joining the army, or the ildu or something.

 

What we just witnessed from the Trump regime was the most shameful and disgusting desecration of the Oval Office in history. It is clear as day, that Trump and Putin are aligned, and they are planning on overthrowing democracies everywhere. Canadians need to get organized, and march on Washington and burn down the Whitehouse again, we need to help the real Americans eject the traitor. The United States needs its allies to come to their aid, they have lost the Cold War, Putin won without firing a single bullet. If we don't, we will be invaded, many of us will die. And those that don't will be living under the authoritarian rule of a madman. Our government is moving too slowly, our leaders, and our media have their heads buried in the sand, they are still talking about tariffs and debating whether or not Trump is joking about the 51st state. How can we organize such a thing? I am happy to be shot and killed my the US military. We just need to make Americans see us and stand up, they are resisting and they know what is happening, but I believe it will take something more extreme to get them up in arms. I am sure lots of cool internet dudes are going to reply to this "well, why don't you do something? tough guy." I wan't to do something, I just don't know how, I am asking for suggestions on the how. Maybe I will just go by myself. I will die before I become an American. I cannot believe the evil that I have witnessed in the last month.
