  • And Mexico won’t just sit there and take it. The Mexican army is a modern, well equipped army and has plenty of combat experience within Mexico, what with having to fight the cartels with their CIA tactics and American made weapons. Mexico can also develop a nuclear weapon with ease but deliberately chooses not to as policy.

    Not saying Mexico would recapture all the shit the US stole or that it wouldn’t be a horrible blow to Mexico, but if people think it’d be the gulf war again they need to check what happened when the US invaded Afghanistan.

    The US would lose its biggest trading partner and the BRICS sphere would likely immediately gain the second biggest manufacturing economy in all of America.

    I’m not assuming anyone is Russian but nice try. I assume most of the negative ones are either American or Western European, because that’s almost the only regions where Russia is viewed very unfavorably by a clear majority, and this site skews anglo as shit, that is the UK, the US, and Australia.

    I’m not for more war, but y’all weirdos hear “we should listen to ukrainians and initiate peace talks” and interpret “we should unconditionally surrender the entirety of Ukraine and then most of eastern europe while we’re at it”, maybe because the only peace you’d accept is the unconditional surrender of Russia and its balkanization. Hate to break it to you, it’s not happening. Russia’s economy is outperforming most western ones, is growing faster than all of the major economies and has just surpassed Japan as the 4th in the world by GDP adjusted for purchasing power parity. But I imagine the World Bank is somehow Putin in disguise as well.

    It’s better to engage with reality than sacrifice Ukranians for your delusions.
