It would be by far the funniest funniest thing.

I'd flatten my nuts with a mallet before I go on truth social, but if you google it you can find other sources talking about it. Such as New York Post, who I assume is proud of his announcement: https://nypost.com/2025/05/02/us-news/trump-declares-may-8-victory-day-for-world-war-ii/

As usual with Trump, when you look into it you realize it's worse than you originally thought:

Trump acknowledged in a Truth Social that “many of our allies and friends” already celebrate on May 8, but said America should join in because “we did more than any other Country, by far, in producing a victorious result.

Man, fuck this guy.

I think this is nearly impossible. I believe it's the most conservative-safe riding in the country.

If they move it will raise the average IQ of both countries.

I'm Canadian, with a family that's been in the military and fought in every war as far back as we trace our genealogy on the continent. United Empire Loyalists that separated from a New Jersey revolutionary family to move to Ontario.

Having said all of that, my comment was only meant to illustrate that even Canada, with a population and a manufacturing base a fraction of the US, bled more per capita. But not according to any American narritives, certainly not according to Trump and his cult.

Yeah, if we're being honest, Russia fought beyond the bounds of mere bravery, and sacrificed in numbers incomprehensible in the west. And their country is still suffering national PTSD from it.

Even Canada sacrificed more per capita than the US in both world wars.

The above may have been different if the US had been there from the beginning, rather than showing up two years late. Don't talk about bravery, brilliance and principle when you can't even be bothered to join the fight until after everyone is beat to a pulp. And if you do, try not to brag and boast for decades about how amazing you were.

It's not a threat, it's the reality of how these things go. With most of our WW2 veterans dead, most people have neither connection to, nor appreciation of, what happens during a military occupation. They think it's a fucking joke. It most certainly isn't. The moment hostilities become inevitable, all of the people who thought it was funny to "own the libs" by publicly supporting annexation will find they are easy, identifiable targets for righteous anger, and they should best get out before they're put out. Note that the government will not have time for controlled and legally respectful deportation, and it will be aggrieved patriots who decide their fate. Crowds of angry, scared people are not gentle, and they tend to be creative in the most horrible ways.

After hostilities end, no matter how they end, these people will still not feel any comfort. If they end up on the wrong side of history, as they usually do as traitors in an occupation, their fate is grim indeed.

The bottom line is they really should reexamine their loyalties carefully and if they choose to retain treasonous loyalties they should strongly consider leaving Canada. Not sure why they would want to stay anyway, when they clearly do not offer nor deserve the respect of their fellow Canadians.

This may be so but as we've seen in other contexts - e.g., Brexit and the last US election - these are exactly the people that can do incredible damage that can last generations.

Yes, America is free to let Putin invade a sovereign country.

Of course this makes them chickenshit appeasers. Unreliable Russian bootlickers who are willing to abandon their commitments under the Budapest Memorandum. But they are free to do this.

Just don't give me any of this "land of the free, home of the brave" bullshit. They've proven who they are, and they are not that. They're fucking greedy imperialist cowards, friends of dictators and authoritarians. I hope they do us all a favour and just hurry their descent into irrelevance.

Once they've completed their internal collapse, and the pieces have been picked apart, a new Alaric will ride in and close the deal. Lasted less than 300 years. Pretty pathetic by comparison. But I guess the bigger they are, the harder they fall.

I know what it means you impotent jackweasel. My grandfather spent half a decade putting them in the cold ground, and he hated them for the rest of his life. Fuck them, and, again, fuck you too for sanewashing them.

And again, don't forget Nazi lives don't matter. Not even a little.

[-] RaskolnikovsAxe@lemmy.ca 19 points 4 months ago

FUCKIN A RIGHT BUD. We all needed this. One hell of a game, too.

[-] RaskolnikovsAxe@lemmy.ca 18 points 4 months ago

All of this bullshit because some fucking guy couldn't properly set his windage.
