      I’m saying we’ve already shit the bed, and there’s not much we can do now (or, perhaps, going forward indefinitely - that’s not clear right now).

      I’m saying that the geopolitical nature and core values of our government are changing DRASTICALLY, and that old assumptions MUST be discarded. I’m saying that if you have politicians or representatives or MPs or senators or whatever who AREN’T deeply concerned with what’s happening here, and who AREN’T shifting their views of the US a lot closer to the Russian “expansionist empire” right now, that they’re being murderously naive. I don’t want to see us pull a large chunk of the developed world down with us, but I fear we will.

          I mean if he actually somehow thinks that’s a real and good idea for him to follow up on and he DOES try to have us rejoin the commonwealth, I’d rather you gave orangeboi The King’s Justice, to be perfectly honest

      It’s the responsibility of American citizens, but it’s not just their problem, it’s yours too. And you’d better be prepared for the contingency where citizen action fails, or takes too long.
