You can do whatever the fuck you want, as long as you have an expensive enough lawyer who will “correct” you, when people point out what you’re doing is illegal.
It’s by design though. None of this is because of loopholes. What is happening is because the people in power wanted it to be possible.
What a god damn coward.
Sure they’re increasing their defense spending. But not really in the interest of USA.
USA wanted european defense spending to increase for multiple reasons:
Denmark is currently investing heavily in seamines, ships to handle the seamines and underwater surveillance. Unfortunately I fear it’s too little too late, but only time will tell I suppose.
No matter what, the best bet is to make the invasion so costly it won’t be worth it for the US.
Then how the fuck else am I supposed to feel superior?
Sounds like a pretty good idea though to have airbags and crumblezones in something that supposedly can drive 162 km/h (101 mph), and accelerate from 0-60 mph in 6 seconds. You couldn’t pay me to drive something as unsafe as this thing.
It’s an honor.
No doubt that’d be considered an act of war from the fascists. Then again, doesn’t seem like they really need a reason to bring out the war-speeches.
Let this just be a lesson to you all. There is no moral company, and I mean no in the most absolute of sense. Companies aren’t moral by design, and they will gladly make a penny on dead Ukrainians. The only reason they aren’t currently, is because it’s not cost effective enough.
Wait, it’s Denmarks responsibilty to keep american troops safe in their own bases? If you don’t feel safe, then what about fucking off?
Important to remember that collaborators are not without blame in all this. If they will not denounce the fascists, it doesn’t matter if they’re working class or not. They’re traitors.
Would be hilarious. Every ambassador who visits the White House just leaves a tray of a dozen eggs from their country on the doorstep.
Scary times ahead for all, and Americans will struggle the most.
Well, except for the innocent people who will be invaded…
They’re on board with him. Invasions create job security for them. The military won’t care until they’re told to fire on Americans, and even then a large part won’t care, as long as they’re firing on the “wrong” kind of people.
There is no way this lunacy ends in a civil arrest.
This is why they keep taking advantage of you. Because every time there’s a solution it’s: “Nhaa, I don’t wanna spend 5 minutes every day for a few weeks to make sure my payments are going through”.
I’m just imagining them filling up Grand Canyon just because.
The bigger issue is that Trump and Putin are just the most visible part of the problem.
If they both died tomorrow (oh god please), another would simply take their place. It would require a complete deprogramming of their supporters on the scale of Germany in 1945. The problem is that the entire government needs to fall for that to ever even be attempted. It would literally require a revolution or large scale invasion for that to happen at this point, and even then, as we’ve seen with Russia and Northern Africa quite a few times, revolutions have a tendency to just pave the way for the next lunatic to take power.
In USA, invasion isn’t really possible, so it would have to be an incredibly violent and costly (in human lives) revolution, with a slim chance to actually change anything.
An invasion of Russia is probably possible, but it would require some insane inside help to make sure they don’t just nuke everything when they realise they’ve lost anyway. A revolution probably wouldn’t do much, because of the brainwashing problem.
Since democracy is literally built on murdering fascists and monarchs (or just authoritarians in generel), it seems pretty wild to me that it’s seen as a radical belief that they should die. If we’re forced to tolerate leaders whose claim to power is based on supressing and murdering dissidents in an effort to quash democratic thought, what in the actual fuck are we supposed to do to?
I’ve been using an unofficial Infinity For Reddit version since then, so it didn’t really make a difference for me.
Nothing surprising really. Hopefully when people start to die at a high rate from completely preventable diseases and start getting sick from poor food quality, they realise what has to happen to fix it.
