i think the most dangerous mistake one can make is to underestimate the power of a military budget that’s almost half that of the world’s military budget.
such mistakes can be made only once before the country gets couped or taken hostage by the US.
in these times i think it’s important to band together and set aside our differences!
I don’t think you understand where US military power was coming from. It was not just the money, it was the ability to project that power easily (having bases in Europe, etc for example).
That was the ‘soft power’ everyone was talking about. Orange mongoloid had now destroyed that and I don’t think it’s coming back any time soon.
Everyone is basically letting idiots destroy themselves and watching their moves. There is nothing anyone else can do right now.
Except Chinese and Russians. They are rolling on the floor laughing…
I mean there’s that… but there’s also the fact that nobody has been stupid enough to break the seal on the Mutually Assured Destruction nuclear issue. Report after report shows trump is really really anxious to find a reason to use a nuke.
There are no failsafe assurances anywhere, but some places are safer and more comfortable than others and I’m very happy to talk about how you can move to those places.
I’m originally from the US and have mostly been living abroad for over a decade since I left over many of the issues US Americans still deal with today.
Perspective on the US is much more clear from the outside.
If you’d like to live abroad, I can definitely help you do that with information and advice.
tldr is get a passport, secure $500 USD in monthly income (English teaching is in very high demand), buy a plane ticket.
Someone from the US I’ve been offering advice to this year literally left the US today based on that tldr.
I’m very happy to go into details and supply more context for anybody interested in living abroad.
The US looks bigger and more influential from the inside. Its tantrums look tiny and rambunctious from out here.
Irritating and embarrassing, but largely self-contained so far.

What do you expect other countries to do? A preemptive strike?
To build up their armies and get independent from American, Russian, and Chinese interests.
And to undermine fascism and its (potential) allies at every opportunity possible.

Key words: so far.
The last time the US enacted global tariffs, it caused the Great Depression.
Sounding extremely privileged.
Without doxxing yourself, what country are you from to say something like that and be assured you are safe from U.S. influence and shenanigans?
I’m being serious. I want to move away and be safe with you over there.
