I sometimes feel like the rest of the free world is not ready to face the disturbing reality of the new US quite yet. I said it before and I stand by it: Europe has to prepare for war with America.

No offence to our North American friends, but as whole, your nation is really fucking stupid. We should let the next global pandemic run wild on the older folk to bring about some kind of reset.

Part of me had cynically hoped that covid had killed more red hat wearers for their ignorance (and for a time I theorized this is why 2020 went the way it did, among other reasons), but 2024 already disproved that.

Whilst I agree, I think war is the very last resort.
I think Europe should just move away from them in every way. Even if it is done slowly. And stick at it even once the orange Shitnugget dies.

The same goes with Russia. Stop importing their oil, etc. Stop people coming and going from there. However as putin already started a war with Ukraine then go all in and give Zelensky everything he needs (short of nukes) to push them back until it becomes such a drain that putin shrivels back over the border and dies. Once that happens then give them nukes again to stop it happening again.

And hopefully that will give Winnie the pooh something to think about.

Things are difficult with high prices for food and energy, etc, as it is during 'peace time' so Europe may as well just take the short term hit now.

France's election hasn't occurred yet (though Trump will surely continue trying to interfere in favor of Le Pen), while the situation in Cuba, Venezuela, and Iran is non-electoral interference.

While I think right-wing victories in Ecuador and Peru are more-so a misguided positive view of Trumpism in South America rather than direct interference to the extent as is now occurring in Brazil, another example of such interference would be the Trump administration fueling far-right movements in Europe, contributing to the heightened success of AfD in Germany.

Considering the above type of accusations and the fact that the US and Russia are funding the European far right, spreading disinformation and disrupting supply chains. Europe is already at some form of hybrid war with the US.

Russia is running hybrid operations in Europe for at least a decade now, the only thing to create a hot war with the EU is a pullback from NATO by the US. The Trump regime has been signaling such a move for a long time.

A hot war with the US is unlikely, but we have to assume they are an adversary non the less.

I would be less worried as a Canadian to be honest. Almost everyone in the US has a Canadian family member, or knows people who do. A war with Canada would also be a US civil war in my opinion.

It's much easier to bomb places you can't see everyday.

I'm American and agree that nobody should vote for Trump or anyone he endorses or any Republican for that matter. Guess I'm also interfering with the election.

I bet almost everyone in the US has a US family member too and it hasn't stopped any of them from letting this shit go on.

Sorry, but as a Canadian I have absolutely no faith in you and your populous to not fuck us over.

So you're telling me the person who...

  • Recently had his administration hack a voting machine

  • Desperately tried to force the SAVE act which would all but strip away voting rights

  • Tried to meddle with the USPS so much to invalidate mail in ballots...despite himself voting by mail for florida primaries

  • Is actively arresting "suspected" non-citizens in blue states who were born in the US

  • Has openly leaked potential for martial law to suspend elections

  • More leaked information about deploying iSSe to voting locations

...is accusing Canada of interfering in US elections?
