Once again, this isn't about regime. It's a systemic issue. The U.S. is a net negative for everyone, especially it's own people. The only solution is end the whole thing and try something new

And just like every kinda country/ government it should come from it's own people not from a foreign power.

It will not last if it comes from outside, the one who got taken down before, always goes back to the fake patriotism and put another dictator in same place back in the end, if not the same fucker (see Napoleon for example).

Our government should come from well informed people, not a few oligarchs who tell people how to vote via a controlled media.

We should view wealth as a foreign power. The ultra wealthy are divested from the care and keeping of the country, and the regular people in it. They are openly hostile to the citizens, exploiting them and extracting rent and labor from them; and they seek to usurp and control the government.

True, a few business with over trillions of dollar while the fucking country is trillions in debt, it's fucking ridiculous. They have money for war, but not for wealth, they have the biggest corporations in the planet but don't have any perspective to pay any of their debts. No wonder a con man was elected to represent the people of US.

Funny though. Americans seem to think they can cart Blanche take control of, oh I don’t know: Cuba, Canada, Greenland, Denmark, Venezuela, Panama, and Iran and overthrow their governments with whatever right they seem to think they have. Hypocrisy much?

Edit. I forgot the Gulf of Mexico.

Which they will see, it's gonna be the biggest mistake of the fucking century. It's literally Nazi Germany trying to take other countrys as if they have any right.

As one of the people living in one of the neoghbouring countries to the Untied States, I'm fucking terrified of annexation. I almost want them to start invading NATO countries just to see if anything will be done to stop them. I'm terrified Trump's apparent immunity to all consequences will extend internationally and the world will just fucking let him take whatever he wants

So europeans should re-colonize it?

[–] aguasemgas@lemmy.eco.br 2 points 6 days ago

I don't think would want that, they barely have colonies in Africa anymore, and the one's they have eventually will declare independency. Colony are more trouble than worth it.

I say we nuke the entire site from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.

[–] abigscaryhobo@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

Well hang on, let's send the elites into space first. Then nuke their ships. Then give earth a second chance. If we don't get it in 20 years, then we can call it a wash and wipe the planet clean.

Can't we just do pedo's playhouse?

I'd be alright with the European Commission appointing an interim government here. I say this as a USian
