Fuck The USA

It's not just the people, it's the culture. Even USians that voted against Trump are marinating in a largely badly educated culture steeped in racism, unquestioning patriotism that often and overtly overflows into nationalism, a belief in exceptionalism, militarism and predatory capitalism. Fostering egotism, not necessarily stupidity but a hugely self-centered ignorance and aggressive distrust of a society that is overly individualist and a state that is corrupt.

Trump and his ilk are not the cause, but the symptom of this underlying sickness. And to heal that would take an enormous national effort to move away from money in politics, away from a national narrative of being better and more free, away from pride and towards rolling up your sleeves and going to work to fix things and where necessary reform not only society but how people are taught and think towards critical analysis and towards a more balanced approach between individual and societal freedoms.

An effort so enormous that I cannot fault the people who say this cannot be reformed peacefully and will likely result into a violent negotiation of the path forward. (Not that this would be preferred or even welcome, just that it is likely to either happen if, or be needed as a prerequisite that, meaningful change happens)

And the US is far from the only country that needs to change it's just the worst offender concerning pride in how fucked up they are AND as the cultural and military hegemon of the west their behavior affects others the most.

Have you seen Ontario's Premiere? Or Alberta's?

no as a Canadian I think we do hate them. I know I do. Heck yesterday I walked past a woman who was yelling at a SUV from New Jersey calling them "fucking idiot americans" because they were blocking the cross walk. another guy just straight up spat on the thing. the yanks in the suv looked terrified, it was hilarious, serves them right.

And it seems to be a common thing with americans visiting Toronto. We don't like them, we don't want them here, they elected this douche twice. I got zero love for americans and I ESPECIALLY have zero love for any that are all "we're sorry" no you're fucking not. stop apologizing and get off your collective fat asses and go do something about it. Can't stand americans.

Bro just hate us, it's for your own good

Getting closure

Because Kegsbreath would love nothing more than to march up here to "liberate" us if moves to stop it too openly. He's playing for time and hoping that we can either rally our alliances or that the old fuck dies and the US collapses when the collective delusion of MAGA finally bursts.

albera isn't going to leave, itll only happen if they rig the vote, then America might try playing its hand.

You're not wrong. I've said as much before and usually got told to shut up about it by people whose livelihoods depend on foreign trade. We walked into this situation of our own free will, but hopefully this is the motivation we need to do something about it.
