@guigsy @BubblegumYeti @Em0nM4stodon You just saved me pointing that out, lol!

Even if the EU/EC provided that protection, could you trust *them* not to pull a similar stunt on a member state?

Or as is already happening in germany where total sanctioning of the individual, (including family members), is carried out, all with the complicit help of the EU/EC.

We should all look closer to home for fascism rearing it's head imho.

@Em0nM4stodon We're safe here in the UK, as our government will happily cave in to any demand from the trump clown circus, (aka the administration).

@PaulBusch A very good point - I've no doubt trump's pirates have already drawn up a list of Canadian suppliers of critical goods to target and buy out if the time comes.

Canada must find a way to identify and protect these businesses, not only to keep them Canadian, but also to avoid having the tables turned and find themselves paying tariffs on Canadian produced goods, from an american owned internal company.

@juliehuz @sheislaurence @SecondUniverse Who? Me?!!! I'm just behaving myself today, lol!

My only confidence in humanity is that it's doomed to fail as a result of human nature - trump and his cabal are the extreme example of said flaw.

@sheislaurence @juliehuz @SecondUniverse Of course, you're right - trump isn't the first 'moron' in history. Let's hope he's the last .

@juliehuz @SecondUniverse Just checked Wikipedia...jeez, amazing parallels, lol!

@juliehuz @SecondUniverse Ah, that makes more sense! So, he was referencing the near future, not the distant. Still applies, though!

I wonder what he'd have to say about trump and his administration/republicans today?

@SecondUniverse @juliehuz Astonishingly accurate! But three questions:

1. How on earth did he see this coming from 100 years ago?

2. Was it related to American politics at the time?

2. How come no one took notice? Guessing it was considered impossible at the time.

Yeh, I know...Wikipedia here I come, lol! Done...strange character to say the least!

@Natasha_Jay What an excellent idea! With publicity, that could easily take off...and as you say, they'd immediately get outlawed, lol!

I'm male and think it would be hilarious to watch the immediate change in male behaviour if they think it's being recorded!

@VWDasher @benroyce No, it's perfectly safe...as long as you have a gun or knife to shoot/stab it - apparently that will stop it in it's tracks, lol!
