4·9 hours agoAs somebody who lives up there, I can tell you that all this is very performative. It doesn’t move the needle on the general trade imbalance. If Canada wanted to actually get serious about this then we’d be creating crown corps to kick start domestic industry.
It’s even worse than that, it’s the orphan crushing machine packaging its horrors in a way that makes them seem positive and heartwarming.
After doing a bit of posturing needed to placate the hoi polloi, Canada will cave to everything the US demands. The reality is that the US accounts for a far bigger percentage of trade for Canada than the other way around. So, the damage to Canada is proportionally much higher, and there’s no way that the capital owning class will accept losing that much profit.

I just love the capacity Americans have for externalizing all their problems. It can’t possibly be that the country is rotting from within and is the cause of its own problems. It’s all these nefarious external actors who are at fault.
My point is that there’s a global shortage of oil, so whatever oil is available on the market will be put to direct use. Meanwhile, the US is doing the opposite of refilling the strategic reserve right now, they’re draining it in a desperate attempt to stabilize the price. And no, there aren’t magical places where oil grown on trees where you can just go and get more. That’s not how anything works.
So, when around 20%~30% of a commodity is taken off the market suddenly, do you think there will be a shortage or a surplus of the said commodity?
some lib reported me to my own community 🤣
Their hare brained scheme is to try and bully countries like Russia, DPRK, and China to stop trading with Iran through secondary sanctions. What they don’t seem to realize is that they’ve already managed to bifurcate the global financial system when they kicked Russia out of SWIFT, and this will just accelerate dedollarization of global trade.
Where are input and reproduction going to come from exactly?
Absolutely hilarious to watch people perseverate over whether something was made with AI or not.

I agree, the whole view of life being a binary is kind of silly in my opinion. It’s a continuum from inorganic matter that simply reacts to the environment to self organizing living matter. Living things take input energy and then instead of resolving energy gradients directly as basic chemical reactions do, they channel this energy through metabolic pathways which allows maintaining some internal state. So, in a sense, it’s kind of like a battery which facilitates delayed energy gradient resolution.
