What's the source for this? Is it anything other than CCP propaganda intended to drive a wedge between the US and Canada?
Yes, maoists in China created a detailed invasion plan for the US to invade Canada, infiltrated the US government and then had them "declassified" in 1974 in order to create a mild temporary tension between the two close knit NATO allies.
Yeah, in the 1920's to boot. If B-movie (or nowadays just any movie studio) were on here, they'd take what you just wrote, add time travel to it and make it into a movie without giving you credit. And they'd probably find some way to use AI in it too.
Is this what Canadian Bacon is based off of?
The only logical reasoning in this situation lmao
So, you know nothing about this and just want to insult me.
The USA had a standing policy of having a war plan ready for every contingency. I suggest looking up "War Plan Red" on wikipedia, its a good read!
Including:
Alien invasions. Including variables for infiltration and technological advantage.
Zombie outbreaks, magical or biological in nature.
Fighting a war against every nation on Earth at the same time.
All kinds of civil war scenarios.
(Psst. Canada had a plan to invade the US as well.)
I like how people forget that almost every countries military has plans to invade/defend their neighbourhood, better to have plans ready for that time then not having any plan.
Lmao wut?
You have limitless information at your fingertips and you refuse to do an iota of research before jumping on "China bad"?
Fuck China, but for the love of God... literally attempt googling something next time 🤦♂️
There's CCP propaganda all over Lemmy, whether you want to see it or not.
The truth is not propogandan just because its inconvenient.
That's actually the best kind of propaganda.
I doubt OP is a CCP agent. They might have an agenda, but all the adults in the room know this isn't a big deal.
Of course, but having a critical perspective is key to limiting how effect propaganda is.
The critical perspective of being obtuse and misrepresenting data? 🤣
How exactly is assuming that disagrees with your opinions being propoganda critical? Seems like the opposite.
Might want to practice your English a little bit.
Why would it be? It's always good to have contingency plans. This became even more clear in the 30s when political instability was rife everywhere. Never knew what your neighbors were going to do in a decade.
