The real MVP here.
Conflicted?? Why the hell would any sane person travel to that fascist shit hole?
Absolutely. I had a friend (f*ck cancer) who was a huge movie buff, never missed TIFF, but he refused to watch Canadian-made movies. His argument was that he had been disappointed by them too many times, but I pointed out that Hollywood had disappointed him way more often lol. I finally got him to watch some, but he was a stubborn bastard about it. Miss ya, Fred.
Trump is just a symptom of a much larger problem. The U.S. is federally fucked and will remain so for a long time - I don't see myself ever going back again.
I don't think your experience is unique - I think because the U.S. has been so dominant economically, culturally, and certainly militarily, much of the world overlooks us. It's not in our national character to be boastful, we just get things done - but never mistake our quiet nature for meekness. We're fiercely proud of our country and our accomplishments - and of being very unlike our neighbors to the south.
You should definitely come visit if you get the chance, there's a lot to see, and a nation of friendly people to help you enjoy it. Ciao!
Even if he could guarantee complete safety, there's no way in hell I'm stepping into the land of the Christo-fascists, or giving their economy my money.
Yep, I voted Liberal just for that, then Justin walked away from that promise without even trying and lost my vote in the subsequent elections.
Newsom is a hell of a joker, or a complete idiot. Get fucked, America.
You literally couldn't pay me to set foot in the land of the Christo-fascists.
Ah, the Fraser Institute - gargling the balls of the rich, right-wingers since.....always.
Fuck Xitter, I don't know why anyone other than Nazis would use it.
I have to get out to a PWHL game. My neighbour here in Brockville just bought season seats for the Victoire for the same reasons you mention, i.e great hockey at affordable prices, and I'm all for it.
