Some blunt talk for our American neighbours at the Halifax International Security Forum.

Interesting report from the world of diplomacy and military alliance.

The headline quotation is a direct quotation of a non-American senior official to the Americans at the meeting.

80 years of effort to build up a world of shared values burned in under a year. 80 years of soft power tossed in the compost pile and recycled into fertilizer. 80 years of blood, sweat, and tears as Americans laboured to make the world safe for America.

All gone in the tantrums of a decrepit toddler.

Indeed, USA: We genuinely will never fucking trust you again.

    yeah I’m not actually trusting the US until there are clear signs that this shit is not to be tolerated, and it’s been that way for over a decade

    anything less will just get a pat on the head and a half assed “good job kiddo, you’re doing great” while I turn back to pay attention to worthwhile things
