I read today that one of his secretaries said that China had miscalculated, because China exports roughly four times as much to the U.S. as the U.S. imports to China, and he said that that makes the U.S. a lot stronger than China, that it would give the U.S. a better bargaining position.
That’s like a wealthy family in a small town saying they can outlast the grocery store if the grocery store decides to stop selling food to you.
I mean, good luck with that…
Yeah, he just gutted the VA along with everything else.
To my knowledge, no such “uncoup the coup” drill has ever been conducted.
Why would it be expected that you would have knowledge of such a thing?
I think we should change our strategy here. Let the currently popular instances be popular, but instead create a site to suggest lemmy instances and then randomize the order they show up in the suggestions.
Don’t try and pull people who already have accounts from the existing instances to build the smaller instances. Try and direct the incoming growth to the smaller instances, instead.
Aim for growth instead of cannibalism.
They predict -3.7% if yesterday was somehow the end of it, but we know it’s not.
-3.7% would be a dream compared to what’s actually likely.
The possibility of a situation like this is why people never succeeded in repealing the second amendment.
And whether or not we agreed with that fact, it is likely to have some effect on the situation now.
This time may be different because the police may have a lot greater reason to join the people than they did in the past. The police’s retirements were also wiped out, and the police’s family members are a lot more likely to have been affected by those tariffs. I think it’s too pessimistic to say what you’re saying, because the number of people affected now is significantly greater.
An uprising seems likely, and an attempt at brutal suppression also seems likely, but the United States regime has also made enemies of almost every other country on the planet, and the groundswell of people is very large. The number of people in the protests today was massive:

If you see the sheer numbers, it’s enough to give hope.
Yeah, imagine how many people will be at the next big ones.
Well it won’t be after the next one!
Unfortunately, there have been a lot of Dred Scotts of our time.
Dobbs, Trump v Anderson, et cetera.
38.3% of voters.
Not 38.3% of the population.
Pretty significant difference.

The USA is the country where you have no say in whether you get your own healthcare, but you sure get a lot of opportunities to deny needed healthcare to other people!
They are free to leave the US and stop empowering our enemy with their taxes.
Oh you think so, hmm?
You think that a lot of us haven’t been looking at every country that might be worthwhile, including spending years learning additional languages, researching our ancestry several generations deep to find countries where we might be able to get ancestry, applying for literally dozens to hundreds of jobs on literally all other continents, and even taking IELFS training and tests and looking at industry changes for jobs just to be able to get out?
It’s not as easy as you think. Even Canada and Mexico have strict requirements that a lot of the people in the U.S. can’t meet.
Literally the closest comparison is the people who wanted to flee Nazi Germany.
Get some perspective. The people who you are complaining about are on the same side as you. We don’t want anything to happen to Canada, and if something does happen between the U.S. and Canada, we will be each other’s best hope.
As a U.S. Citizen, PLEASE don’t buy these products. Please don’t give in.
Jesus fucking Christ. I swear that there are bots to repost the exact same thing you post.
This is NOT the time to harp on that particular thing.
Those people are going to be some of the easiest potential allies to make, and this is an all hands on deck situation. We NEED them.
Posting this shit benefits the people opposing the idea that the comment is supposedly trying to support.
