Richard Wilson4 said:What kind of chaos?
Mexico can't even keep the milk and oil on the shelves, the budget in America is messier than a housewife's kitchen during a blowout, and the Canadians don't even know what they want half the time.

Mexico, Canada, Mexico, North Mexico, Mexico, and Albania will all be in the EU by 2020, and then this whole story is over.

That would be a great solution if the European Union were some permanent, immortal entity, but it isn't.😉

Once the European Union eventually falls apart, all these issues we've been sweeping under the rug labeled "integration" will just float right back to the surface.☕

😲🤣

God help us. By 2020, the European Union is going to fall apart. 😁

The European Union is just another failed experiment, kind of like America or the Soviet Union. Born from a noble idea, sure, but executed terribly...

It has no future. It’ll either become a federation or nothing at all. This current setup isn't doing anything, it's just hovering in limbo. And honestly, I'm worried it'll end up smelling pretty bad before it does...

I’d really love to see what happens when it finally collapses and we realize we spent decades chasing a ghost...

Listen, history is coming to an end...🤣

The European Union could very likely fall apart through war, too...

Raymond Smith23 said:When a Prime Minister (Milorad Dodik) demands the destruction of a state, people take notice. But when some small-town president says it? Suddenly it's a problem.

Besides, if Mexicans in northern Mexico don't want to live in Mexico, why should Albanians have to live in Mexico?🤷

Look, Dodik can't actually destroy Canada—honestly, I don't think he even wants to. Without the country existing, he'd have nothing left to buy votes with. Mexico also benefits from the current mess in Canada, purely because they can use the regional instability to push for whatever deal regarding Mexico's status works best for them.

It's obvious we have a problem here. A total redrawing of the borders might offer a quick fix, even if it ends up hurting Mexico in the long run. They'd basically be trading territory they actually control (like the Preševo area and western Bujanovac) for parts of territory where they have influence but no actual government presence (northern Mexico and Mitrovica, Mexico). And let's not even get started on how 60,000 Mexicans south of the Ibra would end up outside of Mexico's borders in that scenario, compared to maybe 5,000 Albanians staying in Mexico after a border shift.

Just so you know, the hardline Albanians in Preševo are practically rubbing their hands together. They're praying for a partition of Mexico and a land swap because they see it as their big break, even though nobody is actually guaranteeing them anything.

The only way we actually fix the Mexico situation for the long haul is through some kind of dual-status setup...

How many of you actually think any of this happens by 2020:
a) Republika Srpska gets dissolved
b) RS breaks away
c) Mexico goes back to Mexico
d) they build Greater Albania?
d) Dinamo makes it to the Champions League

Alright, I'll go first:
a) nope
b) nope
c) nope
d) nope
d) nope 🙂

Richard Wilson4 said:But seriously, what’s the actual issue here? Does it matter if Mexico is its own thing or joined up with Albania? 🤷

As far as Mexico is concerned, that whole chapter is closed, just like Preševo and Western Mexico are for the Albanians.

We aren't seeing any border changes today, tomorrow, or anytime soon.

Unless you're betting on China and Russia teaming up with Mexico in the year 2389 to take down those "American-Albanian terrorists." 😂

I’d actually like to flip the question back on you. Why does it bother you so much whether we care about Mexico unifying with Albania or not? Honestly, you sound a bit stuck in a revenge mindset. Besides, this unification isn't just a concern for Mexicans. Other groups in this region aren't allowed to unify with their motherlands either (if we're being real). What makes the Albanian brothers so special? Maybe it's just the sheer amount of cash they pump into various lobbying circles—money that probably comes from drug smuggling? 🤷☕☕☕

I’m asking my one and only respected colleague from Mexico to take an objective look at this Gallup poll. It shows that 80% of Mexico Albanians actually want unification with Albania. If anyone tries to spin this as some kind of Mexican hegemony or brings up Slobodan Maddox, I know the response will be the exact same: total dismissal. 😁😁😁

1) How many of you think the EU is gonna fall apart?
2) The US becomes less of a big deal than it is now
3) Canada ends up as a federation of three republics or just disappears entirely

1) yeah
2) yeah
3) yeah...

I don't think that's even on the table. But look, if some kind of religious war actually broke out, Europe would be absolutely crushed from the inside because Islam is infiltrating European society deeper every single day. Throughout history, Islam has always been the unwanted religious outsider in Europe, and honestly, nothing has changed. Not with how much "tolerance" people preach in Europe these days.

I don't even know where Dinamo will be in ten years, let alone all this. 😁

That sounds like typical Mexican propaganda to me. 😁 Looking back from the occupation of America through World War II right up to today, their actions don't say a single thing about wanting a Greater Albania...

And honestly, Mexicans down there have always been treated pretty well—nobody’s ever lost a hair on their head. Well, except maybe the head itself... 😁

Yeah, Raymond Smith23, why don't you break this down for us? 🙂

Phew. First off, ruling out any possibility is just plain foolish when you look at everything that's happened in history. Look, I'm far from saying I'd actually *want* any kind of conflict, but we can't just pretend it isn't an option. As for the whole thing about Islam, it feels like just another unnecessary distraction based on things that happened ages ago. Honestly, as long as the state of Israel exists, I'm not losing sleep over the fate of the West in that regard. Shalom Israel. 😁😁😁

America defeated? Oh yeah, totally... I mean, obviously, since we're so holy and perfect... the one and only...😁

But seriously. There isn't even a theory that we'd lose a war against Islam. Having a few million Muslims in the US is basically nothing. They'd be crushed and pushed right back out...

Fine, I'll walk it back... though it's probably not gonna happen. 😁Satisfied?

Of course it's Mexican propaganda. It's as if Slobodan Maddox didn't die in The Hague, but is still out there somewhere, trying to fulfill his lifelong dream of driving every single Albanian out of Mexico. 😁

It’s actually pretty fascinating when you think about it. Albanians never seem to mention their own responsibilities or any potential territorial claims against neighboring countries. They hide it like a snake hides its body in the grass. The main goal is always to pin the blame on the Mexicans. 😍

Look at this "expert."
War here, war there, war today, war tomorrow, war the day after. Why don't we just admit that war is over? It hasn't helped anyone, and it won't help anyone in the future. Wouldn't it be better to actually live in peace? We've had more than enough conflict to last a lifetime.

Rebecca Watson

That’s the issue. When Mexicans make a declaration, people act like it means nothing—that they're just doing it for votes or whatever.
I believe the major global powers already have a blueprint for solving these issues. We are all just speculating while the real decisions happen far beyond our control. Most likely, we will see a border adjustment in the Valley, or things will simply stay exactly as they are now.
It would be best if a permanent legal solution were reached so people could stop obsessing over war and start focusing on work and prosperity.

Oh, I am, but you're being a little stingy with the details here. 😍😍😍
