Right after they cast the golden statues of the small handed leader.

We’re doing that regularly now.

There are always algues and fish unless we go out of our way and poison the ocean.

You mean like the Pacific garbage patch? Or the numerous “spills” and effluent pipes that feed directly into the ocean? Perhaps the excessive overfishing or whaling or shark finning? Ocean drilling? Deep water mining? I think we’ve already got that killing the oceans thing managed.

There is of course always a chance something will survive.

Edit: like this fucking horse tail I’m fighting in my garden that’s been around for millennia. Dinosaurs walked on that shit. Makes a great addition to fertilizer but God damn already…

I thought so too but with the warming trends we are experiencing at unprecedented rates the planet does not have time to adapt as well. We are now looking at a possible Venus scenario if this warming continues at this rate. If we look closely we are still increasing our load on the planet and thus increasing the speed of the cycle. Meaning all flora would not have the thousands of years to adapt to the warming as it has previously in earth’s history.

We may just kill every live thing on the entire planet because of our greed.

We’re gonna burn up the planet with energy use for AI before that happens

Distraction is key.

Adore would be more appropriate.

That scumbag would take it as an honor.

If those high earners were protesting and fighting, feeding those with less, supporting rebellion with their money and knowledge instead of working or fleeing, it would certainly solve that problem.

The plan is already in place with my family for when your dictator presses your countrymen into service to come for our water, oil and rare earth metals. It has been so since drumphkins started talking about annexation and instigated economic warfare on our country and we in turn heard crickets from 'murica. We won’t be working, on our couches or fleeing to the best European country that will take us. Our kids may embark on a European journey but we will be right here at home.

The kits are stocked and the truck is ready to roll with five other like minded individuals. Turns out we might only be going to Ottawa though to protest our own government before that happens at this rate.

Fucking right it’s easy to say that. Because it’s the truth.

Agreed.

My kids are the reason I’d be going to fight.

The argument over the minute details and terminology being not exactly the same is so brutally insane. I can’t even wrap my head around it honestly.

Good job ignoring 98% of what I said and just being an asshole.

Ditto.

So let me get this right, I am not permitted an opinion even though your drumphkins affects my country with his actions daily? He has increased the costs of everything for my family and forced us to boycott all American goods for many reasons including economic warfare against my country. He has also threatened to annex us for our natural resources repeatedly. That’s military action.

My family is affected daily by your trump bullshit. How am I upsetting you because I am not permitted an opinion? That is such an american exceptionalism argument it’s fucked. Only my felon fuckwad affects me. It doesn’t cross all thos imaginary lines on maps so no one else has any say.

You’ll never garner support outside your country, which right now you desperately need to help organize yourselves by treating “outsiders” like your regime treats immigrants. Don’t look now but it makes you a whole hell of a lot like them.

So nothing then. Thought so. Every attack is an admission of cowardice.

That’s what cowards do. Their children and grandchildren will ask them one day what they did during this time and they’ll lie. Because they’re cowards and that’s what cowards do.

Since it’s so important what I’m doing… I mean I’m not American so not yet under the reign of an uneducated neppo baby, felon and crazed dictator but here goes.

I voted. Just a slight reprieve for us though. I am organized with local mutual aid organizations. I have collected all the advanced medical supplies I can afford because I am trained to use them but disabled so on limited income. I’ve sighted the .303 and the 12 gauge and filled shells. I’ve collected all the new gear I can and made sure my old beater farm truck and old ATV have oil changes and good tires. I have also organized with like minded Canadians worried about American military incursion into Canada upon your dictator repeatedly claiming he wished to annex us. We grow our own food and bring anything extra we may have to local families in need like us which helps us organize locally with those who need the most assistance resisting. We barter outside the monetary system whenever we can as opposed to feeding corporations, banks and oligarch’s whims. I protest and organize my fellow citizens in multiple platforms to resist and stand up to unconstitutional and authoritarian laws that are being passed in my country. I tried offering suggestions as to what you in murica a can do but I am just met with excuses and hatred as usual. And the cries of the passive. “They’ll massacre us”, “I can’t NOT go to work”, “the politicians need to save us”…

Your turn.

Indeed. Let’s return.

See any of those news reports with Ukrainian families filling glass bottles with gasoline and styrofoam? Kids, moms, dads, Babas. Everyone. Hmmmmmmm. I believe they probably had nothing else. Yet there they are. Still fighting.

Brown people in deserts using old cell phones and a bit of explosives found at many construction sites and farms destroyed your military. Killed thousands with minimal losses. The Vietnamese did it with shit smeared on sticks in the jungle and hand dug tunnel systems. Your news broadcast it broadly. I see it here in Canada.

Probably not. Too busy being a slave and ignoring the world.

And so where is your strike? Where are the organized not on sunny Saturdays? You’ve had months. Your peaceful Saturday protests are very effective fighting fascism.

Unreal. So you’re organizing everyone you know to stop going to work right? Supporting one another. Making sure a general strike is successful. Even a minority can close down an economy by refusing to work. Know what you need for that? Maybe a pen and some paper. Some phone numbers. To go out in the street every day. Meet your neighbors. Talk to them face to face. Find like minded individuals. You know fighting.

Know what I’ll be literally fighting with in Canada? My feet. Extensive emergency Medical skills. Maybe some cocktails And a 303 my grandfather shot Nazis with. I’m still gonna go up against tanks and weapons I don’t even understand because it matters and the world will see and perhaps because I am standing up for myself someone else will stand up with me.

Somehow I doubt it you’re doing any of that though. There’s an excuse for that as well. But you’d rather yell at me on the internet about your mighty military and how they’re going to slaughter you. Defeatist indeed. No wonder your country is so fucked.

The excuses are vile. NY is full of assholes. Most of your gang are vilifying southerners not New Yorkers. Enjoy the dictatorship and camps. No one could have prevented this and no one can stop it but you…yet here we all are watching your citizens, judges and lawmakers arrested, deported, sent to concentration camps and even killed. Unknown men in masks abducting people from the street, their homes, work and even courthouses. Your federal government attacking countries with bombs and support for genocide for no reason other than greed. That’s the American way. You all just sit and watch it happen and say but they have guns.

I truly wish you would fight back because eventually it will be my problem. Your drumphkins won’t stop at imaginary lines on a map. He hasn’t thus far. I won’t sit at home and cower when it happens and I can assure you many Canadians are already organized for just that circumstance. Perhaps we will die. But we will try and not roll over like a beaten dog. You seem to have.

There are many examples from the recent past of people with less fighting the American military might with sweet fuck all. The Taliban did it for two decades and never once lost control. Why? Not because they have missiles and rocket launchers but because they’re organized. Ukraine stood duo to what was thought at the time to be the second strongest army in the world. They still stand up today. They didn’t lie down either and I doubt they ever will. Sure they had an organized army but a small one with very little training or modern equipment. No navy boats. Pretty much a non existent Airforce as well.

Americans however are cowards. Plain and simple. Unwilling to fight for themselves, their families or their rights. Every suggestion we could possibly make is met with disdain and the cry of it’s impossible. Yet others have done it multiple times in other places. Even to your own military that is supposedly impossible to fight.
