Fascism is when you advocate for the poor to not get utterly fucked

Well there’s another solution. It also doesn’t involve genocide, funny enough.

The auto industry takes up a huge segment of our economy, rivalled only by resource extraction. We’re trying to transition to the EV industry, and removing tariffs on EVs would essentially be a death blow to our auto industry, as ICE cars are phased out over the coming decades. So it’s not just about protecting American companies, because American companies manufacture here.

Sanctify Israel, arrest the Jewish people. That’s apparently their play.

The US’s emissions have been falling even in spite of political leadership, but they could certainly be falling a lot faster.

Canada on the other hand… is iirc the only g7 country with rising emissions.

Edit: here’s the graphs (US singled out for visibility of the others)

I think we sell power mostly to alleviate excess supply during low demand periods since most of our generation is relatively stable. Another way to alleviate excess supply in low demand periods, if you can’t sell it to your neighbours, is to shift demand from peak periods by… making peak more expensive.

And a third way is to make the cost of electricity during low demand periods negative, to incentivize excess electricity use (and enterprising individuals with storage capacity to charge up so it can be discharged during peak).

Third option, stop antagonizing them at the behest of the Americans.

Good ol’ Germany getting back to its roots

The US and (some of) its vassal states also happen to be more or less the only majority English speaking countries in the world, and so get to set the meaning of “America” (singular) when used in English.

With that said, the translation reads “the Americas” (plural) which unambiguously refers to the two continents.

Yeah this reads like self soothing. Looking in the mirror in the morning “I am a big boy!”
