Dont worry if you dont live in the USA the USA will come to you…
Or so the new native american saying goes.
Eh, pretty much all countries has their own problems not just America.
I’ve thought about moving out of America but global warming seems primed to kill us all by slowly pressuring us to death or near death without aliens coming down here to lay down the law in a way we can’t ignore. We’re all fucked, whether sooner or later. As much as I would want to live in Europe or Southeast Asia, I would feel about Russia or China like I did about Trump in 2022, that the peace is only temporary.
I dream of the day that we make America a place that OP would like to visit.
…lucky!
The states is a 3rd world country man, been one for a while if it even is one
It doesnt matter, america affects every one on the planet.
Today? Yeah sure. Next year? The way things are going…
The US may affect the whole world less next year if everyone else works hard to find alternate markets, but it’s going to take longer than that for the rest of the world to totally detangle themselves from our mess.
Negatively. By stealing and hoarding resources? By destabilizing world politics? By driving and supporting war across the globe? Most earthlings are unaffected by these things directly. America is not that important.
The negative impact is real and very important. And in the future it can be even worse.
Meanwhile there’s those of us in the US
Whoa now! Can’t be chugging tariff-enriched coffee down like that.
Don’t worry, it’s Italian roast \s
Lmao this hits home, my caffeine intake has slowly been creeping up on me cause of my job and commute, I have like five or so double shot Americanos a day now.
Which still isn’t all that bad, like 650mg a day of caffeine. Above the FDA rec limit but lower than a lot of these people I see sucking down bangs all day
Bobby, if those kids could read, they’d be very upset.
Sleep in a house you own? Can’t relate
I wouldn’t get too cozy over there. We’ll just end up bringing America to you :) Sleep soundly
I’m not sure I get it, is the joke colonialism?
America’s best export is suffering. Right now we call them tarrifs.
Thanks to closing down USAid, we gave up soft power.
A coalition of the willing, ready to make the world safe for Democracy, like 80 years ago.
Swap the beaches of Normandy for Chesapeake Bay.
It’s all fun and games watching the crazy people do crazy things across the pond until you remember the crazy people have nukes and the biggest idiot of them all has the launch codes. Sleep well tonight!
As if Europe didn’t have one demented moron routinely threatening everyone with nukes for years now. 🌚
The funny thing is that statistically, there’s a 43% chance that you’re living in one of the other 8 countries with nuclear warheads lol.
Try sleeping just north of them.
(edit: also the “launch codes” for most of the time they existed where just set to all zeros.)
Lucky bastard, can you like abduct me or something?
Your government will do that for you
Yeah no shit.
I would be thrilled for the USG to deport me. Like where would they even send me? At least before New England finally secedes that is.
You shouldn’t be sleeping soundly. Most of you are only a few steps behind us on the same path.
Yeah since everything is tied to the fucking dollar and whatever America does affects us all it’s not really surprising.
We’ll see if that shifts, perhaps the usd stability is coming to an end.
A lot of deep pockets people are shifting to the Euro already.
I tell all my friends and family to use less USAian services and products. !buyeuropean@feddit.uk
It’s a necessary step. Using more opensource stuff and consuming less USAian media will help at least a bit with the propaganda coming from there.
Not much that I can do about it, so might as well not worry about it. Also my country is a few steps ahead of America
The are encouraging you and all other non-Americans to not fall asleep at the wheel like we have. The system that allowed this shit show to develop has been building for decades and we allowed it to happen.
Do not allow it to happen where you live, because the oligarchy is coming for you too.
This is a very ignorant view.
Lol. Lmao even.
Your country has been a joke for at least the past decade, only thing america is doing these days is ensuring others independence from it (honestly the sole source of the countries value so we’ll see how that goes long term).
But have fun with your facists!
Youre right it should be everyone else’s problem but poor, suffering america
There is a rope tied between our currency and the rest of the western world’s ankle. Laughing at our drowning nation is ignoring that you’re running out of rope.
I love how Americans can always see themselves as a victim.
Yes you have handcuffs around every wrist you’ve had access to in the past century, but in this day and age even your handcuffs are outsourced.
Honestly America doesnt actually produce anything but IP laws these days.
And ya know other countries might not share your lack of education and realise its 1000% cheaper to simply just bypass the bully in the room.
I never said the word victim, but since you brought it up, 50% of the US are victims to this. A large number of us were actively fighting against this outcome and lost. We have been deciding what to do next, and many educated people are in the process of leaving the country. Those without that ability are stuck to suffer under the current conditions.
Except Trump has finally made every other country in the world question why we don’t just cut the rope. I think the rope will be cut if Trump continues to stay in office.
I think with time the rope will be inevitably cut no matter what at this point. I guess we’ll see.
Definitely, but it takes a while to chop through a thick rope like that. If we sink too fast, a lot of other countries are screwed.
