European Council President Antonio Costa says EU accession is key for Ukraine's future, while European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen says it could happen earlier than 2030. #EuropeNews
I genuinely hope Canada has some operational plan in a drawer somewhere of conducting a commando raid into North Dakota and Montana to neutralize our ICBM command centers.
That’s exactly what Russia has wanted since the cold war “ended”. That said, I honestly don’t know how we heal from this. A third of the country is bat shit crazy, and the sane among us are never going to join in their fascism. I think Balkanization is, for better or worse, in our future.
That’s what scares the shit out of me. I’m in a VERY red state, surrounded by red states, in a blue pocket of urban.
And lets be honest, civil war is not off the table, and much of it will be religious. If you’ve lived in the South, the Southern Baptist Church has been wanting a chance to turn the country into a full Christian cult whether you like it or not. And would be happy to get rid of the “Mary worshippers” (Catholics). And weirdly I’m side eyeing the Mormons because I’m actually relatively close to their holy land in Missouri and I’m sure it’s not forgotten the state had Missouri Executive Order 44 (the Mormon Extermination Order). Doesn’t help the Salt Lake of Salt Lake City is disappearing and spreading toxic dust.
I’m in a blue city in a blue state, though we have plenty of red. But we’re where the proud boys and other majestically brain-dead champions of mediocrity love to come and cause trouble while the cops protect them. So yeah, it’s all going to suck, and probably sooner than later 😮💨
Unfortunately the division this time is more rural/urban which would make the logistics of that nearly impossible. If you offered a time for people to move it’d also be vastly lopsided, not to mention things like house prices would crater in some places while skyrocketing in others.
I didn’t necessarily mean best for Americans, any way you put it they’re cooked.
But ya, logistically it’s extremely unlikely, that being said California is already talking about secession. So if it did happen it’d likely be certain states (California, Texas, etc.) And not all of them along state lines.
People don’t usually think about the long term effects of decisions like this when making them, too.
I was thinking one of the best things that could come out of this is if the US split into multiple countries
I would feel better about this if America didn’t have so many nukes…

Won’t help with all the SLBM’s (submarine launched) and B-52 launched nuclear weapons that we have…
Every warhead either secured or destroyed in a collapsing country would be a victory, I think.
im sure they would just let you do it and not retaliate
Yaaa…

Assuming we don’t all blow ourselves up first.

It’s gonna be fun!

No shit. Americans empowered ultranationalist to balkanize the USSR. Have a taste of your own medecine.
… and also Yougoslavia, hence where the name came from

Oh no, house prices, one of the thing that totally works under today’s oligarchy I mean free market
