      Dude is looking much more reasonable than all the American allies that don’t have nukes.

      The western world having a surprised Pikachu face when the American empire starts treating them like it does the entire global South.

      Please, please realize that the actions America is taking are (1) not because of Trump alone. He is the leader that enacts the interest of its wealthy ruling class. (2) This is not new. This has been what the US has done for decades. The only thing that is new is who its being done to.

      You (your nations leaders) all watched and “felt bad” as it enabled a genocide in Gaza. Some even condemning it while continuing to arm Israel as not to upset America. This cannot be understated. This gave America the confidence to do what it is doing now. Gaza was a testing ground.

      Now, that empire asks you to bend the knee and remove the illusion of self sovereignty.

      Korean people, Vietnamese people, Iraqi people, etc. Might want to read some of the struggles against empire from their perspective. Because that’s what is happening now. You can still think “that won’t happen to us”. Well, you might want to prepare for that.

      Because “the 65%” of normal citizen in the US don’t want any of this either but they are just as inactive as you are. Your resistance gives us in the US more power to resist as well. We need to realize that this not a fight between nations and leaders. But a fight against the people of the world. Our blind eye towards Gaza and other crimes has given the green light for it to be done to us.

      We are not fighting against nations. We are fighting against the rulers of wealth. We are sitting in the fascist imperial core being subject to SS troops going door to door. You (in the rest of the west) will see material conditions decline as your politicians are pressured by their own wealthy ruling class to give in to the empires demands. You cannot let that happen. America needs to be choked. It needs to be sanctioned and boycott and if necessary fought against. Do not let your politicians give in; and you cannot afford to continue to be inactive.

        Yeah exactly its a leapords ate my face situation, after decades of killing brown in the middle east, and korean/vietnamese and latin american populations, the europeans are now acting surprised that they are next, recently when trump leaked a text between him and macron and macron saying how they are “inline with syria and iran but need to talk about greenland”, we saw the attitude of the “leaders” in real time, they want to kill and murder brown people for resources and dominance but think the american empire and the orange man will spare their own people, well it seems its not working out now is it
