Trump warned he will impose additional tariffs on the European Union and Canada if they band together to “do economic harm” against the United States.

Get @#$%ed, Trump. Good read. Short but detailed about how partnered we are already and what our next priorities should be

Classic whataboutism. We're not talking about the former colonies here nor asylum seekers. And you are completely out of it. You're not seeing that colonialism and asylum seekers aren't the point as they're persecuted outside their country for the latter or being persecuted by an outside force for the former. In the authoritarian BRICS regimes it's internal persecution towards their own people. It's not about skin color.

Also yes Brazil and SA are muchhhhh worse than Canada. Have you been? Clearly not. Cause going in a supermarket in Rio with heavily armed guards on alert cause you're white which means a robbery could take place any moment targeting you or in SA having to take an uber down the street to not get assaulted and robbed? Yeah.
