There was an article the other day about kicking out the UK, who's going to be left at this rate.

With Tulsi Gabbard as the US Director of National Intelligence, how much do we want to leak to Russia?

[–] shoulderoforion@fedia.io 8 points 10 months ago

everything, obviously

Australia and New Zealand, who Russia doesn't really care about.

This president has been such a disgrace to the intelligence community.

They're not going to stay with the UK and Canada gone.

Australia and NZ are in a difficult position. From the day European's arrived they have been aligned to the world's dominant sea power. Both are remote and reliant on sea trade. I don't know that we have the mental flexibility to change. More likely we will negotiate with the Whitehouse to get the best we can out of things under the circumstances. I wouldn't expect major political parties here to publicly oppose Trump except on long established foreign policy like support of Ukraine. I wouldn't mistake lack of protest with acceptance.

The countries with the most self-interest in securing our sea trade are China, Japan and South Korea for their food, energy and raw materials, not the USA. US is a net exporter to us but a lot of it is financial, services/IP and I think their commitment is somewhat less than it was post WW2.

New plan: we all kick out the US and we'll invite most of the rest of the friendly countries name it the one-hundred thirty-eyes and we'll have blackjack and hookers.

I mean they all just voted in the UN together with Iran the exact same way re: Ukraine. So yeah.
