Texas

Texas and Florida are the natural third world countries to invade. Especially texas. The US would move quickly to secure the energy resources and ‘free’ the citizens of a corrupt failed state.

See, I know what you’re trying to say, but that would unironically be an improvement for most of us…

Damn Hawaii, you’ve been eating well
FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 6 months ago
It’s American.
JoMiran@lemmy.ml 6 months ago
Someone forgot about the colonies. Guam, Puerto Rico, and the USVI.
trolololol@lemmy.world 6 months ago
Nope they are fictional
loweffortname@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 months ago
And American Samoa.
FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 6 months ago
Oh fine. Just tell Midway Atoll to fuck off, why don’t you?
possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 6 months ago
No one cares about them
RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 6 months ago
Just like real life.
Don’t forget American Samoa, too.

Did you just point a camera down a toilet after taking a massive capitalist shite? 😂

If the US territory were to exist on its own, there wouldn’t be an United States.
deranger@lemmy.world 6 months ago
A United States. You wouldn’t say “a uniform”. You would say “an underling”. First one has a y sound to start, second has a u sound to start.

I’m gonna say “a uniform” and u can’t stop me

You wouldn’t say “a uniform”.
Why the hell not?
FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 6 months ago
You wouldn’t say “an uniform”.
You would if you wanted to be an jerk about it.

It wouldn’t look the same, but the US could domestically produce enough food and energy to sustain itself.
Chocrates@lemmy.world 6 months ago
That could probably be said about anywhere, given time, money, and willingness to reduce population.
I could probably build an underground vertical farm in the Sahara and feed myself, if I pumped in saltwater to desalinate.
TheControlled@lemmy.world 6 months ago
I mean, it absolutely could. California alone supplies the planet with a massive percentage of food. If the this image was accurate, we’d have a surplus of food. We might just have to tolerate losing a lot of stuff we can’t (?) grow, like bananas. Or they’d be remarkably expensive because only Hawaii or something could grow them.
Power? Again, we have collosal amounts of energy or energy potential. From green energy to fossil fuels and natural gas. Without selling it to our allies, we’d have a surplus of energy.
This is literally why America is a the superpower. But a lot of countries could likely do this. Russia could for sure too.
Economically, however, I can’t even speculate.
Fun thought experiment, worthy of a Kutzgesagt video!

So this is how Hollywood aliens see earth
saltesc@lemmy.world 6 months ago
No Alaska. Just NYC, LA, and a couple spots between.
possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 6 months ago
Alaska is basiclly Wyoming
FozzyOsbourne@lemm.ee 6 months ago
They usually see London and Paris when looking for monuments to destroy
FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 6 months ago
But only very specific parts. In fact, if aliens invade and you’re in Paris or London, just stay away from the general vicinity of the Eiffel Tower or Big Ben and you’ll be fine.
