A horse siren?
You know those tribal whistles that sound like satan’s scream?
That.

Well, I was wrong, but not surprised
If 1/6 Ontarians think something and 1/2 Albertans think something then there are more Ontarians that think that thing than Albertans.

I had to delete my Canadian friends off my social media because they were both rabid pro facist Trump supporters. The last one was celebrating the annexation of Venezuela. It was weird AF
There were actual Venezuelans in Canada celebrating the abduction. They have easy access to information about what happened in Iraq over the last 20 years, but it doesn’t matter. That would require going out and finding the information, rather than being fed it by automated algorithms.

This will sound insensitive, but it’s a serious point of anger for a lot of Canadians. I couldn’t give a fuck about what the average peanut farmer in South Virginia thinks about Canada. When Canadian’s talk about “America” -they are talking about the American government - ya know, the people who control the tanks and bombs? The people threatening? The people who have an actual impact on Canadian sovereignty?
It’s no different for you. When someone talks about something “France wants to do,” you don’t mistakenly think it’s about some rando coffee-shop worker in Paris, you know it’s referring to the french government. You are well aware that there are people living in France that don’t want to do that thing, but you don’t care, that’s not relevant.
“Not all Americans” really rings so hollow it might as well be a balloon. Use that energy on getting rid of the fascists running the place instead of worrying about discrimination from some country to the North.

“the far left” aka the people that just want to live their lives without being shot by browncoats.

Oh, look, there are dumb people in Canada too.
oh yeah we got tons of those
there’s one guy I used to know from school that I still have on Facebook that has been posting increasingly right-wing stuff over the past year or so. it was kind of hard to figure out where exactly he stood, and like I did consider him a fairly rational guy even though he was a little too eager in general (meaning he’d sometimes jump to conclusions or miss investigating something).
but this event has made it very clear where he stands. he’s a nazi.
he doesn’t present as one. he doesn’t say overtly nazi things. but he supports nazis and thinks that only Good did anything bad here, and thus he supports nazis and thus he is a nazi

Well, I was wrong, but not surprised
as an Ontarian, we have a HUGE blue (conservative) community because of how much of it is rural
and it follows the same shit as everywhere else, blue no matter who, even when they don’t understand why. they wanted to fuck Trudeau (understandable tbh), now they want to fuck Carney (not my personal taste and a bit harder to understand, but I won’t judge sexual preferences)

Instead of cutting ties you should keep the light exposed on them. Cutting them off just leaves them with all like minded friends in an echo chamber

It’s too depressing we are surrounded by these heavily propagandized people here in the states. It feels really threatening at this time. I’ve had to isolate for my own health and safety

You haven’t met the Canadian MAGAs who demanded first amendment rights in front of a Canadian Judge?

Yikes. I feel for half of America.

They really just wanted everyone to remember Manitoba.

Hey, I’m from where you are suggesting, and I’m also emphatically against whats going on. Both domestically and internationally. I think most my age are. The only people propping this shit up are boomers (inherent racism from the ‘good ol’ days’ + susceptible to social media rage baiting) and people that we grew up with that always latched onto minority causes and viewpoints because they thought it was so edgy. Basically the people that were clearly not going to amount to much. It’s revenge of the dumb.
Hey bruh, I’m a Millenial in America and thought the same thing about Conservatives/Republicans. “They’re all a stupid minority, no one sensible feels this way.”
Please, for the love of god, don’t discount the right-winged weirdos around you. Ignoring those “edgelord cases” who were “never going to amount to anything” are exactly how we got a second Trump term. Use us as a warning.
They’re fucking dumb, yet terrifyingly effective. Keep up the boycotts & public criticisms, we support you!

I thought our magats were dumb, but yours are on a whole other level. I managed to find an article that mentions this issue of Canadians thinking they have first amendment rights. You have to scroll way down for the goods:
“Honestly? I thought it was a peaceful protest and based on my first amendment, I thought that was part of our rights,” he told the court.
“What do you mean, first amendment? What’s that?” Judge Julie Bourgeois asked him.
Wow, just wow.
