Usually I am sympathetic towards people losing their jobs. However, that goes out the window when their government is hostile and I am watching family struggle due to the trade war.

Did you actually think I wouldn’t say yes to that? “No, it’s fine to do it when I hate an entire people” /s
Literally the entire point I’m making is that it is horrendous to blindly cast hatred upon thousands/millions of strangers.
Well, then I don’t see any shortage of USian assholes on social media, specifically Lemmy and especially Reddit.
I literally haven’t seen that come up. My eyes have been opened about this “Canadians are so nice” thing though. Total bullshit.
All of them? What about the “innocent” ones?
Ohh you got me! I’m a huge hypocrite. Because what I was saying is that I take great pleasure in knowing every newly homeless Canadian absolutely deserves it! Hahahha I’m fucking evil but it’s justified!! /s
It’s refreshing to see an internet person admit when they’re wrong. That’s the first step to wisdom. Don’t worry, you’ll get there.
It literally doesn’t matter. It is total bullshit, but it is human bullshit.
Some will cry, some will gnash, some will joke, some will mock, some will defend, some will be hopelessly devoid of nuance.
It doesn’t matter because it’s playing right into the hands of the ruling class. There is zero fucking difference between all of this, no matter where you’re from, not functionally.
No matter which people from where at the time are spouting whichever opinion, it doesn’t matter.
No one gives a fuck about this nihilist bullshit, ironically.
I wasn’t being nihilistic. I was pointing out an anthropological fact. I can take the first Canadian comment and take it on a walk through time on the People’s Canada has harmed and–
No, actually. Fuck this and fuck me for trying to help. Fuck the Canadians. Fuck you too.
… I would definitely still peg you as a nihilist, more so after this comment than before lol
You fall into the lack of nuance category. Nihilism and exhaustion can be indecipherable in the right contexts.
Lol the whole reason I’m here is a bunch of assholes see no nuance. They don’t hate the trump supporters, they hate americans generally and delight in their suffering. And defend themselves as righteous for it
Obviously all Canadians being nice was bullshit lol, it’s a textbook stereotype. I’m afraid you have no one to blame but yourself for taking that at face value.
But yet you have no words for your own country only others.
SHUT THE FUCK UP, YOUR WORDS ARE MEANINGLESS AT THIS POINT FOR THE REST OF THE WORLD.
I do not always agree with the person you’re replying to, but to suggest that they don’t ever have criticism for the US is extremely disingenuous.
What they’re arguing is that there are over seventy-five million of us that actively voted against this, and those people do not deserve the blame here.
Do you know how many people that actually is? I mean truly?
According to a quick Google search, the amount of people who voted for Kamala Harris in 2024 is larger than the entire populations of every country after Germany on the list of nations by population. That’s from number 20 to number 234.

That’s the amount of people who voted. For Kamala. People who were eligible, registered, and showed up even after Dems pulled their candidate last minute.
More people than in all of Thailand. More people than in all of France, Italy, the United Kingdom, Egypt, Turkey, South Korea… I will stop because it would literally be easier to just list the 19 nations with a higher population than total Kamala Harris voters.
Now spread that over a land mass the size of China, and maybe you’ll start to understand why people in Washington State aren’t “making a day of it” to bring a guillotine to the white house (and do what, exactly? I mean talk about empty fucking gestures) in DC. A literal continent away. A literal physical impossibility for a working person to do.
