Hey.

What if.

We demanded everyone else pull their weight, after we demanded to bear that weight, and then we left the alliance so our new bff Russia could attack and we wouldn’t be responsible to act.

Then we could attack Greenland and Canada with Russias blessing and not have that awkward inter-NATO thang.

Awesome.

- Americans, the New Nazis^TM^ and friends to Russians.

“Red scare 2” now featuring Canadians, coming to a nazi shithole near you

If that's how America wants to play it, we'll show them scary

Geneva Convention needs a new page

Republicans are the new Nazis. The majority of Americans are too scared or apathetic to stop them.

The majority of voters elected Trump, and apparently if all the non-voters had joined in it would have still turned out the same way.

So, the only NATO country who actually used article 5 to call it's allies into war now wants to leave because the rest isn't doing enough?

[–] [email protected] 17 points 3 days ago

MAGA will leave NATO, and form an alliance with Russia, China, North Korea, and others (probably Turkey, Hungary, etc.). As a show of good faith, Russia will demand the return of Alaska, and China will demand Taiwan, and HitlerPig will give it to them, because they'll say he can have Canada and Greenland in return. He'll like that deal because they are bigger, so he will feel like he's got the better deal.

Is this to be taken seriously or is it just republican trolling?

[–] LillyPip 43 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

It’s serious. They’ve been threatening this for years, but were blocked in various ways. They’ve spent years breaking all those guardrails.

e: this will show whether all the guardrails are gone (it kinda looks like they are)

Didn't they just come to an agreement with NATO?

[–] floofloof 7 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

They came to an agreement with Canada too, and Iran, before they suddenly decided they didn't. Agreements with the USA aren't worth much.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 2 days ago (2 children)

They were working on an agreement with Canada, they hadn't reached an agreement. And the agreement with Iran was reached by Obama years ago, it wasn't Trump lying.

[–] floofloof 2 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

Didn't the USA have a trade agreement with Canada (NAFTA) which Trump ripped up during his first presidency? And then during that same presidency didn't Canada and the USA negotiate a new one (USMCA), which Trump ripped up during his second presidency?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago

Trump just ended all trade talks with canada a few days ago

We give more money to Isreal for genicide and apartheid in order to control oil, whiles killing renewable energy. These fuckers "can't smell the shit on their own knees." - Marylin Manson.

Thing is ... they smell it. They love it. They eat that shit up.

Coprophilia is the very essence of the GOP.

What the fuck is wrong with Mike Lee's brain?

And we're going to leave the $10 trillion worth of equipment and logistics just sitting over there?

We'll take it off their hands for a symbolic 1 euro.

It's pretty cool how we've become a rogue state. I sure wish we'd be terrible and awful and bad. Wait, we're doing that.
