I’ve noticed a lot of stupid people say a lot of stupid stuff in my life, yes

This might put some of it into a better perspective…

You would be amazed at how easily you can be manipulated…

You will probably sit there and say not me never, but you probably have been manipulated and tricked into thinking differently and didn’t even realize it…

Like Ah-bout… “bout” pronounced like a fight between two people.

We Minnesotans are hoping to be annexed by Canada

I never understood this stereotype (aboot vs about). I’m Canadian, lived here all my life, my family is all Canadian and all have lived here all their lives. I’ve got family all across the country, from the western coast of BC to the eastern coast of Newfoundland, from the northern stretches of Nunavut to the most southern tip of Ontario, and very rarely have I ever heard it pronounced that way. It’s actually really funny as a Canadian to look up “how to speak like a Canadian” and watch how awful most of the “tips” are. I’d recommend it.

Ah, Threads and some other lower quality social media are full of people making snarky comments to users from the States, saying something to the effect of “we are also in the Americas, so we’re Americans, you’re a US-ian”.

It all basically stems from the fact that in Spanish, the demonym for people from the US is “estadounidense” (United-Statesian) whereas “America” is used to refer to all of North and South America as a regions. People are too dumb to realise “America” has a different connotation in the two languages and it devolves into flame wars.

Canada needs a nuke now more than ever. Build it. And any time the orange fuckhead threatens annexation load it up in the silo.

precisely, I don’t hate Americans, I just can’t trust them blindly

Americans always tell themselves these lies. Yes, only 65% voted, but the ones who didn’t vote weren’t all non-voting democrats. About half would have voted Trump if they’d voted. It’s not some small minority that supported Trump, it was a majority.

Right now, they are a danger for more than just Canadians.

I’m not trying to be an apologist. I’m just saying most of us aren’t that stupid, xenophobic, and racist. But some of us definitely are.

I disagree. Drive out to rural Ontario, read the literal Trump and PPC signs, we’re no better than any Red State.

As an American, the other 4 out of 10 must be idiots. GOP is on a mission to destroy everything that makes America a superpower.

Not voting was a vote for anti democracy. So they got what they didn’t vote for.

Sure…the US will let a country park nukes next door. See what happened the last time someone tried that.

This Canadian has been avoiding all US products I can and has zero plans to ever cross into the US border.

Americans are fucking stupid can’t be trusted.

Canada should fortify it’s southern border and get nukes.

I would even be into an American style vetting on Americans wanting into Canada. Lets check their phones. Sorry, MAGAt. You support Nazi’s and Trump. Fuck off!
