I do not think Americans realise the far reaching economic consequences of having elected Donald Trump.

@randahl
Trump won by a slim margin. Fuck the electoral college. The rest of us know he is an abysmal failure at business.

@randahl
Hoppas Sverige följer Danmark i detta och gör samma.

[wronglang@bayes.club]

@randahl yes please, stop using these American companies while we work on this issue. We'll get back to you in a few years. Thanks!

[donchacale@mastodon.social]

@randahl
actually... "I do not think Americans realise the far reaching ....consequences of (fill in the blank) "

is actually way more accurate for about 90% of the population.

@randahl I don't know how many do or don't, though it's obviously nowhere near enough.

But the damage is real, and that's what matters most right now. The political effects must follow, sooner or later, and I fear later is more likely. Nevertheless, they will come.

Most Americans are probably unaware of how dependent we are on the rest of the world sending money to us. So stop. Stop buying our stuff. Stop helping our companies make money. DIVEST.

Those losses cannot be hidden.

I always feel a great deal of hope when I can see the public in a nation, put an end to obvious plutocratic tyranny

I think the most powerful or one of the most powerful statements that can be made against the act of the United States end of Israel by the way is to remove all sanctions against Iran.

Iran doesn’t want to be colonized or run by a puppet regime. They could’ve chosen to go completely nuclear on the regional powers and prevented all food deliveries through the straight. They aren’t doing that, but they could.

1/2

This is a demonstration of the fundamental military strategy of never driving your enemy someplace where they don’t have an escape hatch.

If it’s a matter of life and death, and there’s no way to escape people will fight absolutely to the death rather than flee. They have no choice.

[michaelschramm@digitalcourage.social]

@randahl wish we did the same here in Germany

[ukulele67@mastodon.social]

I do not think Americans realise, period.

[olivierburnier@mastodon.social]

@randahl In the Netherlands the parlement wants to stop the takeover by an American company of a supplier that delivers services to the digital identity system.
An I hope they will do so

Switzerland who has order F-35, has delivery problems and payment issues, as the US is forcing them to pay terms even so they do not deliver...

@randahl Denmark sets a good example for all of us - I wish Canada would follow suit.

@Paladin @paulschoe @Nigel_Lake @randahl As we say in France, Rome was not build in one day.
We have to start somewhere.

[leftofcentre@mastodon.social]

@randahl they're self centered idiots.. they dont care.

[apnoe_soeren@mastodon.social]

@jstark @randahl Why? I use none of them.

[gailen@mastodon.social]

@TheDutchChief
I honestly encourage that. The US needs to be ostracized until we get our affairs in order.
@randahl

[jayjustice@gaygeek.social]

@randahl watch what we do come November elections here in the US. It's about to get ugly for the Fascists and Oligarchs here.

[cultdev@mastodon.social]

@Brokar @randahl oh they definitely don’t think it’ll solve crime lol. that’s just the excuse they’re using to trojan horse this shit into society

[paladin@mastodon.nu]

@OlivierBurnier @paulschoe @Nigel_Lake @randahl Oh yes, but I expect a timespan well over a decade.

[nigel_lake@mastodon.world]

@connynasch I never cease to be unsurprised by how far ahead the Chinese think...
