If U.S. President Donald Trump fails in his stated goal of annexing Canada through economic force, what would happen if he ordered the world’s most powerful military to invade?
Some experts and academics say it’s a notion too preposterous to even contemplate. But Aisha Ahmad isn’t one of them.
“When you look at the power (imbalance) between the U.S. and Canada, an invasion would immediately result in the defeat of the Canadian Armed Forces,” said the University of Toronto political science professor, who last month published an essay on the subject in The Conversation.
“But a conventional military victory is not the end of this story. It’s just the beginning.”
As you grow older you learn how to have control over your brain, ie: you can, through practice, tell it to shut the fuck up when it’s screaming all your fears at you all at once.
Your brain can either be like a spoiled child running around creating chaos, or a fairly well behaved child who listens to your requests and needs. Choose wisely.
As someone who is in their 40s this has been my life since about 2006. Crisis after crisis, all the while boomers got theirs and all future generations are fucked from it
Just turn it off and stop caring i guess, it’s the boomer way
I guess if you wanna turn it off that’s your choice.
I prefer to teach it some manners and self-control instead.
Take life head on. Don’t shut out your feelings or ignore what’s happening
Entire generations are losing to a “I got mine mentality”. Now is the time to fight. Fuck manners and self control. It’s time to organize and destroy facism again
I’m not avoiding life. I’ve simply taught my brain to stop ranting about future and present fears that I can’t do anything about.
That’s how I have the time to sleep peacefully and prepare for what’s coming, instead of freaking out.
