Shareholders are the real problem.
Watch “Extrapolations” (pirate it so you don’t give CrApple money). It’s a quite sober take on what could happen if we continue with business as usual.
This is the reason the US wants to make Canada the “51’s state”. They want our water, our oil, our minerals, but not our people. It was always going to be this way, but here we are…now.
Nah, I think that they’d quite like a few slaves.
We should go the other direction. Let Canada take over the Northern US; states like Michigan and Wisconsin are basically Canada already (at least parts of them).

Cue confused Midwestern progressives feeling simultaneously outraged and flattered 😁
Just take over every bordering state, and any state that would be cut off from the rest of the US due to such a move (e.g. Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island).
And every time Trump threatens Canada once again, just repeat the process - excluding DC of course.
How do you write an article like that and then just like… keep breathing… as if you’re a human being deserving of living or something?
The New York Times and other traditional papers have a tendency to write headlines like that in order to attract attention. When you read it, nine times out of ten you realise they’re not actually endorsing it and the article itself presents a much more reasonable take on it.
Newspapers editors write this stuff with the assumption that you will read it, not just screenshot it and post it online. Maybe that’s not a good assumption in the age of short attention spans, but it’s what they do.
