    Honestly? It sounds like an internal problem and supporting any part of that country leads to further threats to our sovereignty.

      Right, I’m not objecting to the drop in tourism. That’s completely justified and understandable. I wouldn’t come here either. But the meme is singling out a blue state whose governor is actively fighting back. If they were mocking a right-wing freak like Ron DeSantis whining because Florida tourism was tanking, I’d be on board. Hell, if it was mocking the United States as a whole I’d say we collectively had it coming. But to mock one of Trump’s enemies who’s getting fucked by Trump’s decisions is dumb.

        The US elected that POS - twice. And even now Americans are barely doing dick squat to stop literally anything he does. He represents Americans, he is the personification of the USA.

          You completely fail to understand how not “free” the US acrually is, and your guilt by association is not only pathetically childish, but ignorantly stupid. Did all the jews in Germany in the 1930’s “have it coming”? Your attitude is pathetic, hateful, and shameful.

          We’ve just held one of the largest protests in American history, dozens of citizens have put themselves in danger to try to stop masked ICE thugs from abducting their neighbors, the city of LA is still under occupation by the marines, and four politicians have been arrested for opposing the regime, but yeah, we weren’t able to change tariff policy, so we’re barely doing shit. I mean, the tariff policy did change multiple times because of public outcry, but still, great point dude. Here I thought you were just too stubborn to admit you didn’t know shit about Maine or its governor when you made the meme, but now I see how deep and insightful you really are.
