This tracks given his posts the other day about "the US beginning the crypto capital of the world"

It's all about to become some dark enlightenment bullshit

America is also the number one consumer of drugs worldwide.

But I bet you won't see any of that money flowing to help that side of the problem.

Just more boots to the door and guns in your faces while we take all your shit and auction it off while you're locked up. Its sick.

Oh man, talk about a head fuck. Sending drugs/immigrants to Canada and guns/gangs to Mexico. We(usa) are rightly fucked as a society, over half of us probably feel a weird joy of being such a cluster fuck of a trailerpark neighbor. The shit we prop up, including narcissistic actions being praised, makes me glad that I'm seeing so many countries pushing back on importing more "American culture" and going by their own light.

I think the "seriously fuck america" is a little much and vague. Even if immigrants and drugs from Mexico were previously perceived wrongly (at least in amplitude and hysteria), I never thought "fuck Mexico". I think people are kinda forgetting that even if the coaches have changed, this is still America's playbook. They're not going to play unless they make us pay. We've been targeting smaller countries and doing the same bullshit with a clean smile to the world for decades. Look at the ACA, now everyone HAS to have insurance (doesn't help affordability, and sometimes costs more), and they've tacked on a yearly fine if you don't comply while basically allowing the government to subsidize the insurance ceos.

We're a publicly traded country now though instead of being privately cut-throat. Stock holders want their continued profits and they see bigger gains in bigger countries.

Shut the border down to all Americans until they can control their criminals. They arent sending their best.

Also the "tremendous amounts" of fentanyl coming in from Canada last year came to about 250 lbs.

They've made a business out of selling panic and fear to the masses. Betraying their own people for money. Never trust a conservative politician or business person.

It’s also just missing the point entirely. The US is primarily responsible for ensuring that illegal substances do not cross its borders. The much, much more logical response by the US to this threat would be to increase searches of vehicles crossing the border. Obviously, we would still have to pretend that a drug as compact as fentanyl can in fact be stopped effectively, but in any case securing the border from the US’ side is not Canada’s responsibility.

He thinks speaking diminutively to people automatically puts him in a position of power over them

It's an insecurity issue common with bullying

He has been for a while now, which is actually a violation of the US' nato obligations. But who care anymore, the US is no longer an ally.

Edit: it also violates a ton of border treaties, and half a doze international agreements the US has benefited from for a long time. But just with NATO:

Key points of the treaty

• The parties agree to settle disputes peacefully
• The parties agree to refrain from using force in a way that goes against the United Nations' goals
• The parties agree to consider an attack on one of them as an attack on all of them
• The parties agree to consult about threats and defense matters
• The parties agree to safeguard the freedom, common heritage, and civilization of their peoples
• The parties agree to promote stability and well-being in the North Atlantic area

Threatening Canada violates all of these and then some.

Trudeau should call him Mayor, or even better, "Convicted Rapist and Felon".

It's the new "we'll build a wall, and mexico will pay for it" - a clause so dumb that people will complain about that, unknowingly tugging "normalcy" a step in that direction.

Decriminalised use/possession, for sure.

But I always think the libertarian "just legalise all the drugs" is just odd.

Regulated? So you mean preventing people from taking really stupid shit? Sounds great sign me up lol

People gotta accept there are trade-offs to living in a society, and one of those is that there's a limit to which we allow each other to get high. Because there are some drugs that make people aggressive, and I personally think these ought to be curtailed where possible. (Again, not a "war on drugs" style curtailment. But distribution, still illegal and criminal)

You wanna take shit like meth? Cool, go out to the woods and never use socialised medicine where workers are at risk from people on such drugs, or just randoms walking down the street.

I don't think taking hard drugs should put you in prison, or even give you a criminal record, but actually legalising the distribution? Nah. Go live in the woods/hills away from everyone else.

holy shit I can't believe I'm agreeing with a .ml user about something

People died from overdoses not to mention lots more ruined lives. I get you like the idea of drugs that are safer to order but that does not make it a good thing.

Also lots of child pornography, murder for hire, human trafficking, and all kinds of other shitty things took place. So yeah, not exactly a good thing.

Bad, even really evil people do good stuff sometimes. That's a part of life.

All research and successful drug policy shows that treatment should be increased and law enforcement decreased while abolishing mandatory minimum sentences

Fucker tried to murder other people, including the roommates of his employees.

False, no human trafficking, cp, or hitmen services were allowed and were promptly removed, except when Ross him self tried to buy one. Obviously people attempted to hide their sales, just like they do in the clearnet, but the site had a policy against many things.
