Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

I still want to know about how a member of leadership from a foreign country could visit a host country, insult the host, attempt to make a propaganda film to support the forced annexation of that country, and repeatedly state their intentions to take the country by force if necessary and not have it be considered a declaration of war.
Seriously, if this were literally any other time in human history or any other country involved, bombs would have been dropping by now.
Yes!
I feel it comes down to money as always. The modern world works on markets, not nationalism.
It's why these ideas get floated around without consequence. Business just ignores the ideas it till it impacts the bottom line. Then they make whatever changes are best for them, very seldom are the changes made for principles or morals.
The US knows this. They attack Canada without declaring war to convince businesses to invest in the US instead of Canada. It works for the most part, tragically.
"Everybody hated the Nazis but not enough had a problem doing business with them though."
Edit: Canada will be alright. We're bringing down interprovincial trade batriers. It'll help gets projects done all across the country. Out word is gold as well. We keep our promises, unlike the US who don't realise how destructive breaking all their agreements really is. It makes sense to invest in Canada. We just have to show that to the rest of the world.
