hey if you hate it, beat feet and make room for someone who's life is threatened and needs to get away from an authoritarian hellscape by seeking asylum in canada. it's a two-fer, you get out of the place you hate and someone else gets to live someplace they won't be hunted.

Did you just tell a native person to leave the country if it doesn't like your colonial bullshit?

I mean I'll go back to where me and my people came from. Walks two steps. Now you.

One, not canadian.

two, not telling you to go HOME, you're telling me your home is becoming untenable, I'm advising you leave an untenable situation.

this isn't colonialism. I didn't make the choices that hurt you. I don't have a vote there. Haven't visited since 1987 ffs lol.

I like how you interpreted what I stated as colonialism when actually I'm pointing out that canada's better for most folk than 98% of the other authoritarian hellscapes. As a native, Canada is doing you wrong. But it's not better elsewhere, and in many places, it's much, much worse, for example, the US.

Y'all are doing hellscapes on easy mode. Get some real republican melanin hating conservatives who take women's reproductive rights away, threaten civil war with their arsenals, and try to overthrow your elected officials, then we can talk shop.

Good luck.
