I hipe not. Space can fuck right off. I dont want to give them money. It might be useful for getting into certain orbits, but if spacex wanted that, they could just build that in Alaska. I think this is for Canadians to use for Canadians. If this was 10 years ago I could see us using this to host american launches, but I dont think we are in that political climate anymore. But hey, I could be wrong.

No. Americans have always called themselves leaders of the free world, leaders of democracy, the land of the free, and until about a year ago, they were, in principle, a free nation.

Now they are not. Now calling them free, is a lie. You dont get to call them freedom units anymore. If you want that back, you’ll need to get your freedom back. I will always let anyone i see that uses that term know they are no longer free, as long as they aren’t.

The loss of their freedom, and their choice to very little about it so far, will mean lots of pain and destruction for many people while their leader wages war on peiple starves them of power etc… all of his actions are blood on their hands. Unless they start doing everything in their power to prevent it.

They aren’t freedom units anymore. Maybe fascist units, tyranny units, something more along those lines.

Ya, hopefully they can develop their own reusable rockets, and also weapons.

This is good news, but its gonna be tough to compete with reusable space rockets.

Boycott amazon. Don’t watch prime, dont biy their goods. Don’t even pirate their shows.

They are helping destroy democracy, and bankrupting brick and mortar stores.

Do you want amazon to be the only store you can shop at? Imagine the enshitification if that happens.

And to make it happen, all they need to do is pay the right people enough, or gove them something they want, and they’ll have everything they ask for approved.

Don’t give them power. They are waging war on your rights and freedoms.

If you think its too great a sacrifice for freedom, then even more reason to boycott, because they already have you by the balls.

Ya, unfortunately Iran, Russia, China, these countries all suck as well. But Israel/US are a much more immediate threat. Unless you’re Ukraine, as russia is obviously the more immediate threat, and you dont want to help Iran for that reason, since they are team russia, but I agree Trump should not be enabled. Let him waste his resources and Iran’s and russia in a fight together, and we will pay the cost of inflation for it. It’s not a bad deal.

Technically the straight is vital for all countries. So Trump went and fucked the world with his war mongering. And countries may be wishing to workout a deal that if they help him, they get something if he is successful, but imo, that would be a mistake, since his agreements aren’t worth shit.

So, to me, the only solution is to wait and see and leave trump on his own.

He will definitely use that later on and accuse of not helping etc… but thats fine. If countries do help, it wont score them with brownie points, because trump always wants more, so if he can back out of a deal, and you dont have much leverage to force him not to, he will just TACO right out of it.

I’d sooner help Iran secure the straight, and china, and bring the entire american economy to its knees, before I helped it win its war.

And if I ever DID consider sending ships, I’d ask for 20 billion$ up front, and once the check clears, i will send my ships.

Go and research it first. Then come back and tell me why it’s different instead of running your confidently incorrect mouth.

I dont give a shit that you’re a minority. It is irrelevant and makes no difference. I dont even know why you’d mention it. Why am I supposed to care what your gender is?

I’m giving you a warning. Im not interested in arguments. If you dont change your tone with me on your next message, you will not hear from me again, because i will have just blocked you.

I don’t tolerate trolls, no matter what their gender is.

You definitely dont know anything about the trucker convoy, if you think anything similar has happened in the US during the Trump administration. I dont give a shit what your gender is.

Thats irrelevant as you are engaged in a strawman argument. If you message me again, I will block you. If you want to have intelligent discussions with people, learn to do it right.

If you wanna argue with strangers on the internet, im not interested.

You should educate yourself more about the subject. Because you obviously have no fucking clue what the trucker convoy protest was.

Your little walking parades are not protests. The trucker convoy was a real protest.

I’ve been following American politics very closely. I am very educated on it. You have no fucking idea what you’re talking about.

You are making a strawman argument. I wont waste my time with people that cant argue in good faith.

All the ones that know what’s happening are aware they are losing their freedom.

Im not bothered by maga or ignorant people not doing anything.

Its all the people that know what is happening. That think posting “release the Epstein files” will help. It would if they did it on congress’ front lawn, but not in their echo chambers.

Your first sentence leads me to believe you’re full of shit, so im not reading the rest of it.

Show me. Why isn’t lemmy full of protests?

They can stop many news outlets, but not all of them. Not all social media platforms.

The protests are small and insignificant.

They should be massive. Like the trucker convoy in Canada was.

There are still free social media platforms, and they aren’t showing protests.

Wed see them on lemme, if it was 24/7 protests, so, you are not correct.

Technically we are. We won’t be out in our lifetimes, to my knowledge, but we aren’t making more helium. Once its gone, its gone. So, it is running out, but on what time scale?

When will the human race start slowing down? Its eventually just going to get crazy expensive and only used when vital. And we’re filling party balloons with it.

I am shocked that america isn’t 24/7 protests.
