  • I would not pick a fight going into USMCA to score some cheap political points

    Yeah,. And the USA should also remember how well their country will do without our oil and postash.

    If the US wants to kill NAFTA v2, they do at their own peril. The two countries have worked side by side for many years and rely on each other. The only difference with Canada is we now realize the USA isn’t our friend.

    Canada is now sitting at the cool table at lunch while the US is eating their boogers and picking on the tiny kids on the playground.












  • I recognize they are doing peaceful protests, and getting scattered by ICE with some tear gas, but I don’t see many willing to actually fight.

    Maybe it isn’t a lack of empathy but watching their actions?

    My claim that Americans desire a fascist state are somewhat justified. Watch any random video of 1st amendment auditors in the US. The common theme regardless of political leaning is the desire to punish the other. US citizens will call men with guns to deal with a guy just standing on the sidewalk with a phone camera. The US citizen has the desire to have the camera person punished for their perfectly legal, yet disliked, actions.

    Lawsuits in the US also demonstrate the results of years of brainwashing the American public with “American exceptionalism” rhetoric. Someone slips on the sidewalk due to no negligence of another, but someone must be punished.

    The police in the US as generally pretty terrible. They have a long history of planting evidence, harassing innocents, fishing for crimes for no reason, harming and killing innocent Americans. The cops are protected by the government with qualified immunity. If a cop happens to get punished and fired in one district, it’s been shown time and time again they can move to the town next door and continue being a cop. If Americans cared, this action would stop. But a large number of them don’t care because it doesn’t happen to them OR they approve of the killing and beatings because that person was “the other”.

    This has been going on for decades and decades. All it takes is the majority of Americans to desire it to stop - yet it hasn’t.

    1/3 of the country voted for Trump because they knew who he was. 1/3 of the country couldn’t give a shit to vote.

    American exceptionalism and apathy are killing Americans and 2/3 of them either are for it or don’t give a shit.
