I love how even unconsciously they can't take Mexico. I know it's most probably racism, but we still prevail prior to come back.

My first thought was, fuck yeah! I'm game for a North American Union. But it appears that's not what they meant.

It's not only economically silly because they would lose the entirety of Europe, but it's also an insult Canada.
Canada was there on DDay, 9/11 and countless other tragedies / disasters. I doubt this would be popular with americans in the military. Theyve been fighting alongside canadians for decades.
As if fascists care about a little thing like that.

Legitimately what is wrong with these people?
They want a fascist leader and to invade their neighbours?
They know how that historically ends right?
Like the "you won't let me say a slur so I'm gonna be a nazi" thing was kinda supposed to be an overly reductive meme, but this guy's just out there living it.
They know how that historically ends right?
lmao, no
Or they do, but correctly identified Adolph's greatest mistake for conquering the world:
Being Germany instead of America.

And is America better off with 12 (or how ever many) more states? And lefty states to boot. Lotsa luck fellas.

They don't know anything about anything. That's the problem
An interesting thing about this map, the way these lines are drawn would all but guarantee conservative victories for a long, long time.
A bunch of extra, barely inhabited states, to give two extra electoral votes and a handful of senators to conservatives. I wonder if whoever drew this is aware that most Canadian conservatives are closer to American Democrats than American conservatives.
Good eye. Ontario is left as is so I guess they want another California in terms of population to seat ratio.

To be fair In the US's case, when a fascist invaded a neighboring country they ended up robbing half of the Mexican territory. The better comparison would be taking what usually happens when the US invades any country, and then imagine that happening inside the US. You don't shit where you eat.

Where's this from? (I'm probably out of the loop.)
Whoever it is, I at least appreciate that they didn't fuck up MIMAL or his pan of Kentucky-fried chicken.
It's The Golden Circle again https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knights_of_the_Golden_Circle?wprov=sfla1
Terrifying, thanks.
How about we start by making Puerto Rico and DC states
They don't want to do that, those would both add solidly democratic senators, and likely permanently cost them the Senate.
Not like Canada and Greenland, which are notoriously conservative and would vote for Republicans consistently. Ignore the comparatively liberal policies, those aren't related. Quebec and Greenland in particular are just chomping at the bit to jump on Republican mainstays like adopting English as the one true and official language of the US.
They don't want to do any of this. They want to propose ridiculous pipedreams that they cannot hope to accomplish, and wouldn't enjoy if they did, because it distracts from their lack of ideas or morals.
Every conversation about Canada and Greenland is one you're not having about sex crimes and class warfare.
I think you attribute far more cleverness to them than they have. I don't think they care if we're concerned about their lack of morals or ideas. Why would they? All the information needed to know about that was publicly available before the election and it didn't matter. The people who would care already know, and the people who wouldn't... There's no reason to distract them. Not that it matters, since they won and we can't exactly change that.
I can assure you my snark here doesn't reduce the amount of other conversations I'm having elsewhere. I can hold opinions on multiple topics at once. ;)
I wouldn't put it past them to actually want this insanity. People said the same things about how talk of overturning Roe was just a distraction because it's a "settled matter" and doing it would be insanity.
Imagine if they're not actually playing 5 dimensional chess. Imagine if their platform is exactly what they say it is, and their dumb ideas are real. If they respond to claims they don't have any ideas by saying they have the best ideas, and to claims of immorality by calling them lies and calling the accuser a pedophile.
I think people want them to be more clever than they are, because it means that people got duped, rather than their surface level idiocy being super appealing to a lot of people.
They would need to make Alberta like 35 new states to prevent this from steamrolling any potential Republican elect

So they are planning on invading an autonomous territory of the Kingdom of Denmark? A part of EU and UN.
They seem to be planning on invading everyone. Canada's about to elect a far-right government of its own, and I don't trust the Conservative Party of Canada not to go along with it, because they've been trying to dismantle everything that made Canada a nicer place to live than the USA for decades.
They don't know how maps work, dude. They don't even know what Denmark is.

Glad they didn't divide ontario between the crazy side and southern ontario
That's just so they don't ever have to think about Northern Ontario. As is tradition.
So abolish the United States and replace it with a union of North American nations? I'd be cool with that.
I'd like to know what they plan to do with Iceland and Sicily. Two very oddball selections there. At least The Philippines was once a US territory.
Maybe try to govern one country without fucking it up again.
Do you want to get the white house burnt down again?
We'll do it a second time if need be

As a bo us, guess who benefits from normalizing this kind of rethoric...
Yo, why do they want the Caribbean? They already have P.R. and the treat it like an S.T.D. they're ignoring.
I kind of get the feeling Trinidad and Tobago might be open to the idea. /joke

I wasn't aware American fascists wanted to share a country with Sinaloans. They keep saying the opposite in fact
The State of Jefferson garbage in northern California is laughable. None of those clowns understand that states need to produce something to be financially viable, lest they simply mooch off of the federal government.
That area of CA produces nothing of real value, but then again, most red states do just mooch off of the federal government...
I live smack dab in the middle of "The 'state' of Jefferson" area and it's amazing how laughably disjointed the SoJ morons are. Functionally all the SoJ bumper stickers and other merch amount to a red flag when dealing with people.
I think their economic plan is "sell water"? A lot of the push is driven by resentment about Southern California stealing "our" water (and only giving back millions of dollars of tax money for projects that would be unsustainable for a sparsely populated rural state)
Is there a reason they only want some of central america? And why only part of those islands? Might as well make it all solid as long as we're dreaming.
Do these fuckwads not realize how supremely unpopular with even the general American public invading Canada and Mexico would be? Let alone the rest of the world?

Obviously a lot of dumb here, but I'm most curious about the dividing of some of the existing states.
Like, I assume LN is Lincoln? But I thought the Lincoln movement was something on the East Cost, along Tennessee or something?
Texas being divided up with AU (Austin?) Being the biggest chunk is interesting. Not sure what's up with the chopping up on Oklahoma and Sequoia (?) though.
What's with that AB business in Wyoming?
Also interesting that California would encompass all of the Baja Peninsula. I would have figured that would have broken off as its own state (BJ for Baja probably would have been too awkward for the conservative that drafted this, but maybe BC for Baja California?)
I'd love to hear more about these if anyone can point me to references.

Is that the Philippines in the corner there?
Reminds me of Japan taking Hawaii in terms of how far of a stretch it is.
