Keep burying your head in the sand.

Yeah okay, it’s always a distraction until it affects you. You guys said it was a distraction when Trump threatened to invade Canada/Greenland/Panama/etc but it doesn’t feel like a distraction when you live in one of those countries

Also I’m not saying any of this shit isn’t fucked up. I’m just taking it seriously as should you

I'm Canadian. That wasn't a distraction. That was a act of war. A tryst between Trump and Musk doesn't effect people, which makes it a perfect distraction. You've been conned.

That isn't what "tryst" means.

You are correct. I used the wrong word. Doesn't mean I'm wrong about it being a fake fight.

While talking about a fake fight that has no effect on you, look at what's not being properly covered by the news that does effect you. You've been conned.
