I mean, this is on brand for them.

And I want to believe there's some mega 4D chess move going on, involving deliberately leaking false plans to mess with the enemy. But then I remember these are self-righteous buffoons who believe themselves above the world and have the hubris to match it. 🤏🧠

That's sad to hear. Well, alternatively, when conditions like these get in the way malicious compliance tends to be the answer. Let them go, but they shouldn't be surprised that the people don't welcome them and make them feel as unwanted as possible.

All this while we (allies) start paving the long, bureocratic and legal way to defend ourselves, by rethinking and adjusting these same accords and treaties that prove themselves to be liabilities in these circumstances. They're there to protect stability and balance, after all, not to excuse bullies wanting to impose themselves on other nations.

Deem them all persona-non-grata until they've backed down completely. Same for Canada, Panama, Germany and any other nation in the crosshairs of the US, whether for annexation or political tampering.

Strong worded letters won't do anything with these sleezebags. Only actions. Otherwise they'll always go up to you and grab your lollipop, because they know all you'll do is complain without taking action. And words alone don't hurt sociopaths who don't care about feelings.

To them it's literally 'as easy as taking candy from a child', because they know the child won't defend itself beyond crying - and that's what they want and expect. God forbid you actually defend yourselves, they'll be offended and take to social media to condemn you.

Yup. In several countries, including my own (Portugal), the 'far right' who tends to repeat Trump's talking points is raising red flags all over.

Poilievre in Canada, Farage in the UK, the whole AfD/Musk/Vance debacle in Germany, and so on. And many of these parties were gaining strong traction with each election. Now Trump's image association with them might as well be a radioactive label.

Yup. This is the kind of situation most average people will underestimate or believe this is just media doing its usual thing of blowing stuff out of proportion and creating drama for views, until they actually find themselves in a scenario of powerlessness against tyrants who waited their whole lives to have this kind of power.

And I don't mean Trump, specifically. I mean down to the ICE field agent who was always trigger-happy but was constrained by law and its consequences. These people now see there's fewer and fewer guardrails preventing their abuses, and they'll take full advantage of it.

Never underestimate human ambition. Both for good and bad. Appreciate your human rights, but don't take them for granted - the only thing protecting such rights is the fear of the consequences of violating them by bad people.

I think someone mixed up this one and the other recently arrested legalized US german immigrant.

Perhaps a swap at the border would do the trick. 🤔

Trump: Not here, we're in public. Wait until we get in the Air Phallus 1.

I'm sure he did. Who else but Trump as President of the US Russia Oblast?

If Trump died it'd have been a huge wrench in the decades-spanning Russian plans for slow destabilization of the west.

I mean, it's not like it really matters with him. He'll always be right, just as we will also be always right. And his followers will believe him no matter what undeniable proof is presented.

Macron literally corrected him on the EU vs USA aid to Ukraine as he pouted in front of the cameras. Days later he reiterates the exact same lies he told in front of Macron.

We should still preach the truth no matter what, don't let them silence us with their lies. Even if they don't want to they'll have to acknowledge them even if the people have to impose free will and equality again, because they are certainly finding ways to force the people to accept their lies by force and their totalitarian rule.

Bizarre is hijacking jokes and memes to virtue-signal and crow about what you think is good or not. And don't conflate personal opinions with objective quality, that's the mistake many people make that triggers an explanation on what opinions are and their worth.

Do like the others and take that frustration elsewhere, as I didn't engage with this meme post to battle semantics with frustrated reddit users. That's my opinion for you and of you, do what you will with it.

Why not both? If you're a true republican living the american dream you'll have no issue owning both and risk bankrupting yourself for the overlords. 🤏🧠

Damn, the irony and gaslighting, not to mention selective reading. And on such a small and insignificant topic, no less. Quite the teen behaviour.

You'll have to get in line and convince me if you want me to engage with your cheap attempts at proving yourself. Same for any other frustrated teen wanting to engage in keyboard warrior-ing.

Don't take it so hard, champ. This is a friendly and funny meme thread about spicy sauces. Such a shame to hijack jokes to derail it into pettiness like that. Reddit much? 🤔
