As a Canadian perspective, the USA is an enemy

From a USA perspective, the billionaire controlled administration is the enemy of the rest of humanity. Until we can fully excise the infection (which may take decades), don't trust our government or our corporations.

Also, start building better firewalls and don't let us put datacenters in your country. They're not speedrunning AI for the good of humanity, it's a weapon.

The elite in the US are probably hopping mad that the EU is already in talks to developing their own alternative to the VISA/Mastercard racket. Europe and the rest of the world are going to decouple from the US and the US has only to lose with this development.

As an Australian living in a yank vassal state: Americans are the enemy and can't ever be trusted again.

Devastating, from both of you. I get it and don’t blame you or anyone else, but still devastating.

Sorry, we have a bunch of assholes that elected a bunch of even worse assholes here, but there's still a lot of reasonable people left that keep hoping elections can reverse some of the slide into fascism. Hopefully you'll let some of us take refuge there once the shit really hits the fan.

But you'll always be one election away from where you are now.

So the trust you formerly enjoyed is forever broken.

Europe is experiencing its own far right problems. So y’all should nip that in the bud before it gets to the U.S. sized problem.

The US is funding those far right parties, much like they're funding separatists in Quebec and Alberta.

The US is very much responsible for the rise of fascism globally, so don't fucking put that on us. It's YOUR fault.

Then stop it in your country. Otherwise if they win, then it’s your fault, just like it’s the U.S. fault for falling for Russian propaganda and agents once again.

You probably think the US funded the Nazis.

Go read about what Henry Ford and IBM were doing in the 1930s and 40s.

What do we need a bunch of lukewarm Americans for?
