Kinda nothing. The US has no obligation to look up our past rhetorical precedents, if they invade.

Canada being an enemy of Iran isn't new, and the US is definitely able to do this, so there would be no payoff to condemning it.

and yet you'll have cry babys say you support genocide if you take this stance. its infuriating that some people here still act like shitty redditers who think the the leader of a nation should get involved in pointless conflicts that dont pertain to them when we are not strong enough to even fully protect ourselves.

I've also seen Reddit/Lemmy suggest dropping nukes on Russia is a good, moral and safe idea, and I've seen it often.

Like, why would you play armchair general, if you're not actually interested in how any of this works?

Not being able to stop it, still leaves a big gap between applauding it and criticizing a needless action to cause many deaths in the world.

Except he's a world leader, not a shitposter, so his words actually have tangible repercussions in terms of blowback.

There's no prize for most telling-it-as-it-is here. Global politics is not a Twitter thread.

Like Donald trying to find a way to lash out at us again.
