Your nation provides 90% of the electricity we consume

That is completely false. In 2023 the US generated 4257 TWh compared to Canada's 615 TWh. The US only had a net import of 19 TWh

I know that the orange turd's actions have grave consequences for EU citizens too, to be clear, and this is something I can't ignore

Our societies should in ernest gather the will to increase the distance to US politics. Plenty of countries have bad developments, but they don't affect us so substantially like US politics do.

I completely agree but it's a little hard for me to know exactly where to draw the line though. It's less hard for assholes profiting from his bile. They can print everything he says (and print money from that) and also stand on the flimsy argument that everything he says is newsworthy.

I think the word you are looking for is secede. But also you are right Texas will never succeed.

The problem is his friends own a lot of the media

You’re right. The source I used was from 2022, and we imported less than half that in 2024.

Regardless, we need them more than Trump will admit.

Who, Elon?

Post a pic of a pleading cat on a UK community with the title "Please can I have some food"

Some yank immediately - "Yah this is what happens when you vote republican"

JESUS FUCKING CHRIST SHUT UP FOR FIVE FUCKIN MINUTES

My kingdom for ublock filter lines to remove posts with titles including "Trump" or "Musk"

I agree with this take.

Is the concept of invasion not clear?

You don't have to ask once you invaded.

Sure this is an unlikely scenario but saying Donald can't afford to lose a partnership by invading an allied country is not understanding the problem.

For me the ideal option on another topic was to hide or unsubscribe from all relevant channels after finding the one that does frequent summaries I can read from time to time. If Trump\Elon drama could've been reduced to one weekly summary with added context and factcheking that would probably erase the need to follow these news articles completely.

I don't remember where I heard this, but it's stuck with me "Liberals take Trump literally and have never taken him seriously."

I swear it's just one dead cat after another with this guy. It's like someone is feeding him this nonsense to keep him busy, and by extension, the media and most of us.

He’s already working overtime to distract from the fact that the majority of his campaign promises were just lies and the sooner he can make the people who voted for him forget all the pie in the sky shit they were promised, the better.

That too. Good call, OP.

I encourage everyone to call non-news what it is - a distraction - until it's actually a thing that's happening. In the meantime, consider browsing the AP to read what's actually happening that's being masked by all this noise.

Yeah, ignore the president of USA. Great strategy

Did you even read the post?

That was the path before the election. A lot of clickbait headlines linking to his platform that exposed his "alternate facts basis" for evil. Now the attitude won't make him go away anymore.

This is fine🔥🐶☕🔥

It's not an unpopular opinion if we look at declining viewership of news channels or readers canceling newspaper subscriptions.

What he and guys administration does is newsworthy. What he says is really not, outside of the extremes.

What's even more stupid is that we've already done this. We've already lived this stupid-ass reality, and the media made public apologies at the end, only to turn around and do the exact same thing again. I'll say one thing for trump, he's right that the media is a circus, and not something to blindly trust. That's probably the one and only time you'll hear me say trump was right about anything.
