Why is this foreign born person still in the US? Didn't Trump say he wanted to deport naturalized citizens? Deport ~~Ted~~ Rafael Edward Cruz back to Canada! Send him back!

After all the shit you're giving us to deal with in Canada this would be the final straw that leads to war. He's a product of your culture and his power comes from you, he's your creation.

Yes everyone know's a Canadian's shit doesn't stink and the country definitely doesn't have it's own fascism problem.

Definitely.

Canada has its own problems for sure, but Ted Cruz's family moved to Texas when he was 4. He's definitely more a product of American culture than Canadian culture.

Hey, don't blame us for Murdoch. He's Australian, he only bought US citizenship in his fifties in order to spread his hate better.

... Saying that becoming American helped with that doesn't really strengthen my case here, does it?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago

Yeah this thread ended up being more hostile to regular Americans than I intended but US culture and US global hegemony are the things that attract and amplify the shitty people from around the world.

USA is the final boss of capitalist imperialism and the people have completely lost control over the reins. It's now a matter of when they actually say enough is enough, be it now or after Fascism runs its course and hurts millions of others around the world as well.

Right, because Canadians are the only victim here.

The hypocrisy is palpable.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 4 days ago

Canadians are, generally speaking, taking plenty of action against Trump and the United States. Travel and purchase boycotts for instance.

We're not the only victims, no, but you have to clean up your own mess. When given the choice to follow you, Canadians recently chose not to.

Instead of getting butthurt at internet comments go out into the streets

I think we can all agree that the uber rich are the issue and not each other.

I dated a Canadian once and you'd have to wait an hour to use the bathroom after her but maybe that was because she was a vegan.

Anyways what are those shifty Canadians up to up there?

What's the fascism problem you're talking about?

There are a handful of loud Maple MAGAs that have been continually losing elections. So yeah, there's some of that here. However, OP is just salty that the US is a fiery shitshow and is deflecting.
