The difference is that we used to stand behind the bully egging him on.
It been interesting to see white people in Canada afraid of being colonized while vehemently downplaying the Indigenous people's grievances as "why can't they just accept the culture they've been given?" So close to self awareness but will never get there.
Seriously, when Indigenous groups pushed back on Carney's "elbows up" nation building projects, I saw so many comments from internet geniuses along the lines of "they're trying to treat this like their inter-tribal relations where they demand soverignty and veto power on anything that goes on in their territory at any point in the process, unfortunately that's not how Western investment and development work." Yeah, it really is fucking unfortunate that we're still denying them their culture and ways of doing things.
You must be pretty uneducated to think that USA did not mess with Europe economy, politics, society etc etc.
I mean for fuck sake, USA was both funding and directing terrorist attacks all over the Europe up until 1990s
(Years of Lead, Operation Gladio...)
Oh I'm well aware, but seems like a lot of Europeans are not.
Am I supposed to feel bad or…?
Tell me when America didn't mess with all countries politics, tell me, I'm waiting.
For a brief moment on September 10th, 2001, the CIA took a relaxing spa day.

What, concretely, has america actually done to Europe and Canada though? It mostly just seems like trump saying dumb shit that insults their honor. I guess he's done some tarrifs but that's nothing compared to the bombings, regime change, extractivism, sanctions etc. that the rest of the world gets.
It's more like the rest of the world is on the gallows while Europe and Canada are in the pillory yelling about their new found solidarity.
Blow up energy pipelines, have them sanction russia. Just do everything to cut them off the only other nation that can compete with yankeeland in the energy business for europes demand. As a result we are more isolated and dependent on yankeeland oil.
Wasn't that the Ukrainians? I guess the US didn't say anything after they knew, but it seems like the Europeans probably knew too and didn't want to investigate it further because they wanted to keep their relationship with Ukraine. In general it seems Europe are more rhetorically hostile to Russia and don't really need the US to tell them to sanction them.
Also Russia is not the only one that can supply Europe besides america, oil exports are still dominated by the Saudis and the Gulf states. Even Canada exports about as much oil as america.
Wasn’t that the Ukrainians?
officially, it was ukranian individuals acting alone that blew it up for funsies; but everyone knows that it was ukraine enabled by the us empire to blame russia and make sure that europe can't go back to buying russian oil at the same capacity.
and, like europe, the saudis and gulf states will not do anything that the americans don't want them to do; so buying from them is also a non-starter.
That's too funny, it would be more hilarious and real if you put like 100 faces there in the bottom.
What goes around…
Lol wat? Europe got hard fucked by The US straight up reneging on military alliance TWICE!
The second time they spent 3 years being like "hey that Hitler guy has some good points, you know..."
Fucks sake
