But hey…no immigrants. Dumb as hell.
& they wonder why we call them fascists.
This is why.
Real putin Energy that one.
I would say Soloviev energy
“the peace president” they said…No war they said.
Putin and other tankies showed the way so why not.
Putin is not a tankie; the dude is a literal billionaire who participated in gutting the USSR. How well did the haute bourgeosie fare under Lenin or Mao?
Perhaps he wasn’t a stalinist around the time of USSR’s deflation but he sure is like Stalin reincarnated today. And seeing as we are in lemmy, I need the feel to remind everyone that that is an extremely bad thing to be.
Settler state wants more land to settle
Meanwhile, in reality, they are terrified of letting Puerto Rico become a state because it might threaten their delicate gerrymandered hegemony in Congress by adding two more senators and one or more representatives. This “map” is the fever dream of a lead-poisoned, terminally MAGA moron.
So, most of them then…
I don’t understand why they automatically assume that PR would go democrat.
Both democrats and republicans believe Latinos owe allegiance to the democrat party.
I’m surprised they didn’t just stretch the northern states to consume Canada. Perhaps they are afraid of giga Michigan and it’s immense power.
BC is gone 🥺 As are NWT and Nunavut.
No idea what CL/CD (in BC) and MK (NWT) and KW (Nunavut) are supposed to refer to.
How come they want a little chunk of Mexico and all of Nicaragua, but they don’t the rest of Mexico?
They need somewhere to deport people to obviously/s
All this talk of expanding the USA from everyone is… concerning.
Also this map includes Iceland, northern Sicily and the Faroe Islands. What?
Totally not fascist.
I love how even unconsciously they can’t take Mexico. I know it’s most probably racism, but we still prevail prior to come back.
I know it’s a joke, but Mexico has been a US colony since the NAFTA was established.
Not joking. The USA can take Mexico anytime, but they hardly could keep it. Also, the USA does not rule in Mexico, at least not openly. If you take that USA meddling in other countries affairs is enough to call it a colony, well, then everyone in the world is a colony of the USA. NAFTA was a trade agreement, but it was contingent to whatever is agreed between governments, not whatever the US government says. The renegotiation of NAFTA, the USMCA, is proof of this. If the USA government thinks countries in the world do not have options to trade, it’s their mistake. At this point they can be replaced, but that doesn’t help anybody in North America.

Any country that is not prepared to get the Venezuala/Cuba/Iran/Russia/North Korea treatment will do what the US tells it.
Canada, Panama and Greenland (Denmark) should not worry. Every single fucking loser MAGAt will have a copy of Cadet Bone Spur’s 1968 doctors note excusing them from military service.
Seeing as they mention America’s 250th birthday I am going to mention that the average lifespan of an empire is 250 years.
Yeah. This empire will last less than Liz Truss’s term as Prime-Minister.
But also most empires didn’t live in the age of instant global communication and endless propaganda power and surveillance.
Yes, I am sure all existing empires will now last until the end of time.
I hope not. But they’re definitely gonna be a lot harder to take down.
I don’t mean to say that, but they might be much sturdier.

Mexican here. Those are the states unpleasant accents so I’m on board with this plan.
