Fuck the wine… Canadians are getting seized at the border. Do NOT go to America. It sucks there. There’s nothing good there. And you could die there.

I wonder what back doors NATO equipment has that the US can use to turn off equipment.
If NATO decides to go rogue and turn on the US, I doubt their equipment will work for very long.
Gonna be hard to be against China in this envorment. I fine with trade with them. It this situation is becoming impossible unless euro and Canada significantly bolster ties.
The whole world is using Ukraine as a training ground. Yes we're technically siding with the oppressed... but we cannot truthfully say that 100% of the motivation is protecting Ukrainian sovereignty and/or mitigating Russian aggression. EoD militaries need soldiers with combat experience; especially given how rapidly fpv drones have changed the landscape of warfare.
China is literally keeping slaves, openly and without shame. They've taken Tibet and Taiwan. Like.. let's not be cool with China, yeah?
I mean the two biggest economies in the world you can't just ignore them.
They've not taken Taiwan idk where you got that idea, and America uses slave labor and side with slaver country's frequently as well, if the aren't openly attacking us I don't the issue with us selling from a country that isn't any worse then America, if we don't we won't have much anyone to trade with unless a the global south suddenly decides trading with us is a good idea.
I mean those datacenter hits hurt the participation levels on both their websites, of course they would both retaliate against Ukraine.
The USA is the problem, not Trump.
Drumpf is symptomatic of only one of the systemic problems with this country, and is therefore inextricable from the topic. ✊🏼
Both are, but the first includes the second, so I guess you're right...
Trump is like our noticeable national facial tumor. Visible, and a major problem, but still just a symptom of an underlying problem. Amerikkkas culture is poison
Not for long. You know how frequently trump changes his opinion
Yes this is a good point to bring up, it is easy to forget after seeing Trump backstab good people over and over again that Trump will backstab bad people too if he is pressured into doing so and the bad people begin to be appearing to lose.
I genuinely have no doubt Trump wants Putin to win but this is made irrelevant by the fact that Trump is a massive fucking coward who pathologically cannot be caught being on the loser side and will always betray everybody around him to jump ship to the winning side. Just read about how pathologically Trump is incapable of losing at casual golf to other people, it is seriously fucking deranged... and then apply that to Trump being cornered into being one of Putin's last real allies and it is obvious he is going to backstab Putin too if we bully Trump enough.
So... I make sure to do my part by calling Trump a loser for siding with losers.
If this isn't already happening we're so screwed
we are fucked, as far long as we need russian/US oil&gas and chinese chips
I don't think it's about treating China like an enemy but more about becoming over reliant on them. If we get on their bad side (which we problaby will at some point) how fucked are we if they stop trade with us?
I mean you have to trade with one or the other preferably both. They are by far the largest economies in the world. What do you replace them with? You can't, sure trade with everyone else also but unless you want to severly limit your market you don't have a choice.
We've pretty clearly demonstrated why having a global superpower is a bad thing.
Canadian gov/Canadian military are working with/for U.S.
China hasn't done a fucking thing to us. Russia/Ukraine war needs diplomacy not clumsy kabuki theatre to get the masses on board the imperialism train.
So diplomacy which probably involves Ukraine giving up some land?
It's funny how Canadians hyper focus on the status of Ukrainian land sovereignty, but couldn't give two shits about the rights of south Americans or Africans living under the boot of Canadian mining interests, or even for the land or resource sovereignty of Canadian or Australian indigenous peoples.
Russia is welcome to diplomatically leave Ukraine whenever the fuck they want.
NATO has completely surrounded Russia, North Korea and China with Nukes and proxies.
The west has almost completely abandoned international law.
Russia has zero incentive to end this attrition war. North Korea and China have zero incentive to stop supporting it.
If they did, there is every indication to them that Ukraine would be another nuclear armed NATO proxy.
Just that orange guy. Remember that.

A literal Nazi state doesn't deserve any support.
You're fucking stupid. No argument needed; you came with your own proof.
You want to do a whataboutism? I've got your whataboutism right here.
Ah yes, a private military company being questionable is totally the same thing as state sanctioned Nazism.
Pretty much everything Wagner does has always been approved by Putin, it's why he used them to do the nasty work he couldn't make Russian troops do (e.g fighting in places where Russia isn't officially fighting at all)
