Legitimately what is wrong with these people?
They want a fascist leader and to invade their neighbours?
They know how that historically ends right?
Like the “you won’t let me say a slur so I’m gonna be a nazi” thing was kinda supposed to be an overly reductive meme, but this guy’s just out there living it.
They know how that historically ends right?
lmao, no
Or they do, but correctly identified Adolph’s greatest mistake for conquering the world:
Being Germany instead of America.
It was invading Russia.
This time the US is best buds with Russia.
the US is going to turn into the same thing as Russia, a Kleptocratic, ultranationalist, fake-religious gangster state, right now they’re getting ready for the 1990s version of Russia where public assets, infrastructure and industries are carved up and sold to private interests, IE Oligarchs. Trump wont live long enough to see the end result, but America’s next mini-Putin will make his play in about 10 years or so.
The actual issue was being easily invaded by land. The rest of the world’s superpowers would need to invade us by sea, and even in the 21st century, keeping supply and logistics chains open across the ocean is actually pretty hard in a war with a peer who has more capacity to STOP your naval and airlift capability than you have of defending it.
No no. It’s not invading Russia that’s the mistake. It’s invading Russia IN THE WINTER.
Difference this time is it’s overwhelmingly the most powerful military in the world as the aggressor, with nukes :/
May the gods have mercy on us, and prevent these fuckers from trying this.
An interesting thing about this map, the way these lines are drawn would all but guarantee conservative victories for a long, long time.
A bunch of extra, barely inhabited states, to give two extra electoral votes and a handful of senators to conservatives. I wonder if whoever drew this is aware that most Canadian conservatives are closer to American Democrats than American conservatives.
Assuming the conquered territories get a vote is a bit of a leap.
Yeah, any questionable voting area will get Puerto Rico’d.
Good eye. Ontario is left as is so I guess they want another California in terms of population to seat ratio.
outside of the far right / populist MAGA copycats in the People’s Party of Canada, and a certain strain of Albertan Separatist types. Most Canadian Conservatives are leftists compared to the US parties.
even Pierre Pollievre who canadians are labeling as a Trump puppet, is openly supportive of many policies the GOP would crucify people for, like abortion, gay marriage, etc.
They know how that historically ends right?
They don’t know anything about anything. That’s the problem
They know how that historically ends right?
To be fair In the US’s case, when a fascist invaded a neighboring country they ended up robbing half of the Mexican territory. The better comparison would be taking what usually happens when the US invades any country, and then imagine that happening inside the US. You don’t shit where you eat.
Cartels already killing Mexican government officials, journalists, activists, the competition, the Mexican armed forces. Do they really want the cartels to declare the american equivalent as fair game?
Yes, because the people cheering for this don’t see themselves as potential collateral damage.
Lol… For them it never ended… Just a minor setback with 60 years of regrouping
Well, I’ll say that no one, No one will be able to defeat the US militarily,
so it will end when the country tears itself apart in a civil war. Not when the Chinese or Europeans are at the gates of DC.
And is America better off with 12 (or how ever many) more states? And lefty states to boot. Lotsa luck fellas.
It would be ten, and also 3 territories.
I count 14 and 3 territories. NS, NB and PEI are small, but there. And Newfoundland and Labrador have different labels and so I’ll assume they are separate states because that’s completely stupid.
Keep in mind this is a bullshit flight of fancy from people as clueless as they are evil.
Yall really dont understand what a trillion dollar budget really means.
Canada and mexico would be extremely easy, in the scheme of things, to annex.
My friend, this very likely starts a world war.
There’s nothing easy about that.
Why wouldn’t they just slowly snipe you to death whike you waste trillions after the initial conflagration?
Totally aside from the economic collapse initiated by internal and external strife over this.
How about we start by making Puerto Rico and DC states
They don’t want to do that, those would both add solidly democratic senators, and likely permanently cost them the Senate.
Not like Canada and Greenland, which are notoriously conservative and would vote for Republicans consistently. Ignore the comparatively liberal policies, those aren’t related. Quebec and Greenland in particular are just chomping at the bit to jump on Republican mainstays like adopting English as the one true and official language of the US.
They don’t want to do any of this. They want to propose ridiculous pipedreams that they cannot hope to accomplish, and wouldn’t enjoy if they did, because it distracts from their lack of ideas or morals.
Every conversation about Canada and Greenland is one you’re not having about sex crimes and class warfare.
I think you attribute far more cleverness to them than they have. I don’t think they care if we’re concerned about their lack of morals or ideas. Why would they? All the information needed to know about that was publicly available before the election and it didn’t matter. The people who would care already know, and the people who wouldn’t… There’s no reason to distract them. Not that it matters, since they won and we can’t exactly change that.
I can assure you my snark here doesn’t reduce the amount of other conversations I’m having elsewhere. I can hold opinions on multiple topics at once. ;)I wouldn’t put it past them to actually want this insanity. People said the same things about how talk of overturning Roe was just a distraction because it’s a “settled matter” and doing it would be insanity.
Imagine if they’re not actually playing 5 dimensional chess. Imagine if their platform is exactly what they say it is, and their dumb ideas are real. If they respond to claims they don’t have any ideas by saying they have the best ideas, and to claims of immorality by calling them lies and calling the accuser a pedophile.
I think people want them to be more clever than they are, because it means that people got duped, rather than their surface level idiocy being super appealing to a lot of people.
They would need to make Alberta like 35 new states to prevent this from steamrolling any potential Republican elect
Alberta may be conservative by Canadian standards, but I think they’ll end up as a collection of blue states if you did that. America is quite far to the right ward on average.
To be fair, there are a lot of pieces of nowhere as extra states and likely Republican strongholds.
This is how it begins. You keep calling territory that isn’t yours your territory until it sounds normal to those that you have created a cult or pact with. Then it doesn’t seem so abnormal when you decide it is yours.
People who voted Trump in are actually fucking stupid.
The tyranny of countries more free than US. Only one thing to do. Yes, that is destroy them not copy them. Why would you want to adopt a better system when you can destroy theirs and claim yours was the best all along.
People who voted Trump in are actually fucking stupid.
I keep seeing liberals roll this one out, despite spending the last six months shamelessly pandering to conservative voters. Can’t imagine why a Democrat would lose an election with this strategy. “You’re an idiot! You’re an idiot! You’re an idiot! Oh, um, vote for me, I actually love strong border policies and Israel is the Best and transgender athletes are a big problem, tee-hee! Fuck, fuck, fuck, you’re an idiot, you’re an idiot!”
Love how true this is yet is currently at -19.
Liberals can’t cope with their election loss, in which their parties strategy was to court people who would never vote for them in the first place instead of their base who they actually secretly hate and just pander to for votes yet will never do anything for because it counters their donors wishes.
Meanwhile, in reality, they are terrified of letting Puerto Rico become a state because it might threaten their delicate gerrymandered hegemony in Congress by adding two more senators and one or more representatives. This “map” is the fever dream of a lead-poisoned, terminally MAGA moron.
I don’t understand why they automatically assume that PR would go democrat.
Both democrats and republicans believe Latinos owe allegiance to the democrat party.
I don’t know if owe is the right word, but yeah, both parties assume they’ll go democrat and I think that’s a smug assumption typical of the elites. Granted trump was a dick to PR during hurricane Maria, but if he actually responded appropriately he’d likely have a lot more support than either party would realize. I think they should either be a state or gain full independence, this in between seems unfair to them. (And I feel that way about all of Americas territories subject to taxation without representation)
So, most of them then…
Yo, why do they want the Caribbean? They already have P.R. and they treat it like an S.T.D. they’re ignoring.
They want more people to treat like shit.
Earth isn’t enough?
I kind of get the feeling Trinidad and Tobago might be open to the idea. /joke
Wait. I thought they didn’t want foreigners coming into the US, doesn’t this defeat the purpose of keeping them out?
History doesn’t repeat itself, but it often rhymes.
There was a war in the 1800s that USA had with Mexico. We beat them so bad that they surrendered all of Mexico to us.
In the end it was decided not to accept the deal, as it would just create a new set of problems with needing to legalize the citizenry of ALL former Mexicans.
You may be underestimating the right’s appetite for genocide
No it’s why they didn’t want them to be citizens. Keep that option open in the future.
Today’s right will just go for a genocide, then try to “great replace” them later on.
I wonder what the history books can tell us about what we did with the people that were here before us …
Ohh… Ohh my…
That’s big fucking talk from a country that couldn’t hold-on to half a Vietnam.
So they are planning on invading an autonomous territory of the Kingdom of Denmark? A part of EU and UN.
They seem to be planning on invading everyone. Canada’s about to elect a far-right government of its own, and I don’t trust the Conservative Party of Canada not to go along with it, because they’ve been trying to dismantle everything that made Canada a nicer place to live than the USA for decades.
They don’t know how maps work, dude. They don’t even know what Denmark is.
And nobody seems to notice they propose taking Iceland and Faroe Islands too.
Trump wants to buy Greenland
The danish prime minister called the idea silly, because it is.
Trump got butt hurt, called her a nasty person and cancelled a meeting with her.
All this talk of expanding the USA from everyone is… concerning.
Also this map includes Iceland, northern Sicily and the Faroe Islands. What?
Seeing as they mention America’s 250th birthday I am going to mention that the average lifespan of an empire is 250 years.
But also most empires didn’t live in the age of instant global communication and endless propaganda power and surveillance.
Yes, I am sure all existing empires will now last until the end of time.
I hope not. But they’re definitely gonna be a lot harder to take down.
I don’t mean to say that, but they might be much sturdier.
deleted by creator
Yeah. This empire will last less than Liz Truss’s term as Prime-Minister.
Totally not fascist.
Do you want to get the white house burnt down again?
We’ll do it a second time if need be
Yes please
Canada, Panama and Greenland (Denmark) should not worry. Every single fucking loser MAGAt will have a copy of Cadet Bone Spur’s 1968 doctors note excusing them from military service.
My first thought was, fuck yeah! I’m game for a North American Union. But it appears that’s not what they meant.
Prolly be faster to invite them in.
Canada and Mexico, wanna join the USA? I have no negotiating power.
Feck oof, eh?
Fine. Can the USA join Canada?
Buddeh! Sorry, no buddeh! Ehhhh!
And Texas? To shreds you say?
At a glance, the map also gives part of Idaho to Oregon and creates Jefferson between Oregon and California. The plan seems to be to reduce the proportion of Democrats in existing blue states to tilt them red for the EC, and to break up large red states to maximize the number of Republican senators without hurting their standing in the House or EC.
I’m shamed it’s not a full Greater Idaho.
Honestly wouldn’t mind us breaking up some states or combining some states.
California for example, while liberal leaning from the outside, got some real counties that could use a FAFO separation.
We are containing them, quit your bitching. Trust me they are impotent.
