I hope we respond by putting tariffs on American pickups. Democratic nations need to cut the US out of the global economy entirely until they learn how to act right.

Apologies if there’s any weirdness in this post, it’s my first one.

    It might be small biccies compared to iron ore to China, but the optics are really bad, and when Australia is included in the tariffs, then psychologically we are siding with Everyone Else in this new US vs Democracy fight. Because that’s what the US (tech bros, who are now in charge) are orchestrating: a direct attack on democracy.

    So yes, the numbers are small compared to other countries, but the attack is ideological, and real.
