    Please won’t somebody build a different system for financial transaction?

    Toppling MasterCard and Visa would help a lot I think

    Full embargo: no trading of goods and services whatsoever.
    Boycott any international events in the US.
    Ignore any US patents, royalties, copyright and similar devices.
    Invite usonians abroad that only have an US passport to kindly leave.
    Seize all murican assets abroad, like company headquarters, factories, etc.
    No travel.
    No trading in USD.

    The small caveat being that some areas are overly dependent on US (like the EU on AWS and Visa/Mastercard), so step 0 would be (re)building local infrastructure.

    Edit suggested action to muricans: follow the Luigi way.
    Edit2: mention the Epstein files at every chance possible.

    If your system can only be healed from the outside, than you never had a system.

      We are all in this world together. There is only one humanity. To hell with everything used to divide us, except this one thing. We are the working class. We are not slaves. We can rule ourselves. The wealthy are parasites. They have no borders. Their only creed is MORE. We can only throw off their chains and take back what is ours together

      they have always been weak and accepted their shitty system, now it’s even worse and still they don’t do anything effective.
      They don’t know how to riot, even a lukewarm action like a strike is too much for those pussies.
      Fuck them.

        Counter point: Fuck us maybe, but the crap is spreading. It’s also in your (other countries) interest to stop this. Or just treat us the the pariah we are and isolate the US and move on with out us.

        Very impresive strawmen, dude. You are arguing against something that was said only in your head.

        Where was the “deserve” in what I said? I agree with the post. Very much agree that US should be sanctioned to accelerate the changes.

        What I’m pointing out is that is the clear sign that US trouble is deeper than trump alone. The hope that a broken system will be healed with the change of people in charge of broken administration is like hoping that a loveless marriage can be healed by making a baby.

    Stop being lazy assholes and work on fixing your problems yourselves.

    The tools of geopolitics aren’t all that granular. The only thing an outside country can do is make your cities like the cities of Germany at the end of WWII, or like Gaza is today. If you’re asking for other countries to fix your problems for you, that is the result.

    Banning the US from the Olympics, World Cup or whatever doesn’t change anything, and it probably would just be more fodder for your fascist propaganda.

    Ending trade with the US? Yeah that’s happening, but it won’t be something that’ll happen tomorrow. This is something that will happen over the next decade. You might even have a Democrat as President when things get really bad because of the shit Trump is doing today. And then you’ll vote in another fascist. The stupidity of Americans has become incredibly predictable. Which is why no one can trust you long term.

    You’re just stupid, and there’s no fixing stupid. And you have nukes. You’re the guy that gave a monkey an uzi, and then wants someone else to deal with it. Nah, we’re just going to stay away from both the monkey with the uzi and we’re also going to stay away from the idiots that gave an uzi to a fucking monkey. You go take the uzi away from the monkey, you’re the one that gave it to him.

      Yes, writing off the nation where everyone is an idiot, that’s armed with nuclear weapons, and has expansionist ideals and deciding to just leave them to their own devices because pushing back is possibly difficult or risky will work out great.

      It should only be a problem is you’re a nation in the western hemisphere without nuclear weapons, so I’m sure it’s fine. Mexicans, greenlanders and Canadians aren’t worth causing a fuss over, and I’m sure they’ll stop there. Just ask Poland.

      I wish we could just stay away, but if you’re a Greenlander, that’s already not an option, and if you’re Canadian, that may not do it either.

      Solution might be just like Hitler’s Germany. We will need the Chinese to replace the Soviet Russians.

      I would never give a monkey an uzi, but my neighbors believed it was an awesome idea. The neighbors far across the pond think we’re all the same over here and that I’m to blame for the monkey having an uzi. So idk… I just pray we all survive this without everyone picking up an uzi.

    If any country in the word has zero credit it’s the US.
    Maybe we’ll do some interpretative dance and complain just like you do.
    Oh, and the american contribution to all the world problems: 🇺🇸 thoughts and prayers 🇺🇸 ™️ of course.
    Best of luck.

    Starting to call orange pedo’s bluffs would be nice however other governments aren’t unfortunately the only players in this game. There are quite influential actors (i e tech billionaires) that are probably quite happy with Trump giving them the green light to do whatever the fuck they want.

    Tanking his investments with a unified response would be nice too but they couldn’t even do it for Putin for which the aesthetics would be much cleaner, so I don’t have a grain of hope they will do it when Trump is in power. Maybe only after he leaves office, but even then not sure they would want to “damage the reputation of an ex-president” (as if he has any).

    While I do support the world doing all it can to end the U.S. empire, I think it is a case of “you broke it, you fix it”. The USA was born out of genocide, grown on slavery, and continued to expand from imperialist exploitation of every county and people they could exploit. The U.S. citizenry has been just fine with supporting (or at least turning a blind eye to) dictatorships and fascism all over the planet, but now that they are getting a taste of it at home it is suddenly a problem.

    The world can’t mend your problems, USA, YOU need to clean your own fucking house.
