Yeah, as soon as he said "Goose, easy" I knew he was not Canadian material. Sorry, OP. Maybe try Mexico?

Trump has also made it very clear that this isn't really about fentanyl, that's just a convenient excuse (he can't impose tariffs without congress unless it's for "national security.")
His real purpose seems to be some combination of "if I hurt Canada then that makes America stronger somehow" and "if I hurt Canada enough then they'll give up and submit to being conquered by America outright." He's said both of these things, and Trump is too cheese-brained to be an effective liar; when he shows you what he's really like you should believe him.
It's a war of aggression, essentially. Fentanyl is just his Gulf of Tonkin.
When trump tried to divide them, Trudeau tried to play ball.
Like a mature adult who wants to explore all options to avoid harm to his country. That's not a sign of "weakness."
Then they can make a new sub and pointlessly use their own leg work.
The existing sub is right there. OP wants to walk away from it. There's absolutely no point to burning it to the ground and forcing someone else to do a bunch of work to recreate it, it's just petty.
I've had to deal with this sort of "if I can't have it nobody can" mentality in online communities before, helping rebuild the ruins of something that someone pointlessly destroyed on their way out the door, and it massively sucks. OP's just going to make everyone hate him.
And from the US.
Meanwhile, Europe is pursuing replacements for Ukraine. Obviously none as good as Starlink and there'll be a rough time in the switchover, but Musk is not the only source for this kind of service.
And in the meantime, by merely making this statement Musk has doomed Starlink to never be seriously considered again as a provider for critical services like this elsewhere in the world.
Might not necessarily be as narcissistic as you imply. If this person created the sub, and is still the only mod, then it wouldn't really exist without them.
No, but maybe it can exist without him. Out of 200,000 subscribers someone could want to step up and take over.
The Reddit corporation doesn't give a fuck.
200,000 people might give a fuck.
America is currently at war with us, declared abruptly and out of nowhere. They just decided one day "we want to annex Canada!"
Even if Donald's presidency is short-lived and a new slightly saner and less stupid administration takes control, I don't think it's a good idea to be trusting the Americans any more.
We need to disentangle ourselves from any military dependence on such ridiculously unreliable "allies." I'm all for this.
Ah, so this is how survival prepping goes mainstream. Not quite how I expected but I'll take it.
They may also go down over time. They may do little spirals, or go sideways.
Donald changes his mind on these things literally hour-to-hour. That's really great for American businesses.
I sometimes steal pieces of it, if only for inspiration, but I love worldbuilding and making up my own settings.
I'm currently running an adventure in a Spelljammer setting where most of the previous D&D campaigns I've run over the years exist on different planets, with elements of all of them now able to make cameos or interact with each other. It's wild.
