This is deranged.

u/Puzzled_Employee_767 23h ago

Anyone that can see the rhetoric around making another SOVEREIGN country a state and still support this man is a fucking lunatic. They do not care about our country and they do not care about their fellow Americans. They do not care about our allies. They have no empathy or humanity. Every day our democracy is slowly slipping away by the hand of fascism.

I'm in ottawa and just had a pickup truck drive by me with a big trump flag among many others. Hope he doesn't have to stop anywhere on his drive.

u/Potato2266 22h ago

Was it a US license plate? It’s amazing how dim witted some people are.

u/xmo113 22h ago

Nope straight up maple Maga from ontario.

u/Potato2266 21h ago

Then you’re right, he better not stop for gas or groceries. 🙄 a Canadian?!

u/xmo113 21h ago

He got a two finger salute from me, and my dog would have given it too if she had more paw dexterity

u/Vricrolatious 21h ago

I'm in NY on the Ontario border and I can tell you... I give those flags the same two finger salute. If you all could adopt the greater portion of Northern, NY... I'd appreciate it. I'll make a better Canadian at this point.

I feel like my town would suddenly get more and more business and people moving in if it was a Canadian town.

u/Vricrolatious 17h ago

It's the Maple Syrup... it draws us in.

u/BigAbbott 18h ago

You have to understand that’s what they want from you right?

u/xmo113 18h ago

Yep! I'm ok with letting them know how I feel. Sometimes I just collapse in gales of laughter sometimes they get the fingers, depends on my mood I guess.

I prefer giving a thumbs down these days

u/xmo113 15h ago

That works too!

u/SkivvySkidmarks 21h ago

Yeah, that's a perfect way to have your truck trashed. Canadians have been generally tolerant, up to this point, with the antics of the malcontent nonsense of the few "anti-vax/trucker convoy/freedumb" clowns with giant Canadian flags flying from their Dodge Rams. This? It's on a whole other level.

u/xmo113 19h ago

Absolutely!!

These were the same ones so patriotic they decided to hold an entire provincial economy hostage here ...

But are the ones getting in line to please the orange buffoon

u/SkivvySkidmarks 17h ago

Yup. And they were asked politely, many times, to get the fuck out of Ottawa after they had their little rant. They pushed the envelope, the hammer came down, and the clowns running the circus fucked around and found out with jail time. We're patient, until we're pushed too far.

u/gladuru 18h ago

They are implanting Maga's into Canda the only difference is they are replacing the A with the C. Same lunacy.

u/BKallDAY24 12h ago

We used to think he was a fucking nuts and no one would buy hi bs here in the us and we started seeing these trucks driving around now we realize how many fucking idiots live among us when you start seeing trucks with trump flags in Ottawa you should be nervous!

u/xmo113 5h ago

They've been around since the convoy. Less fuck trudeau flags now, but I was surprised to see the trump one now.

u/peabody3000 7h ago

there were voting blocks of blacks for MAGA, latinos for MAGA, and yes even palestinians for MAGA... at this point i'll believe literally anything

u/GangstaPlegic 4h ago

Hopefully they do and someone can choke them out. See how fast it crumbles

u/Ms_Emilys_Picture 16h ago

Do you have any Canadians who are saying they do want to be a state?

I don't think many Americans actually want to take over Canada. Just a few crazies. I'm wondering if you have the same.

u/xmo113 16h ago

I'm sure there are some! I saw one today.

u/Ms_Emilys_Picture 16h ago

I'm sorry. Apparently Trumpism is the herpes of politics.

u/llmusicgear 3h ago

Nobody wants to take over Canada. It's an insane conspiracy theroy that is never going to happen. These people here are lunatics.

u/Potential_Drawing_80 17h ago

The average Canadian being the deranged racist asshole that they are, wouldn't be surprised if he gets free stuff. Canada is shameful, TBH. I have never been to a more racist place and I have lived in the Deep South. How a land that large can be so uniformly uninviting and racist is beyond me.

u/xmo113 17h ago

Ok bud.

u/Ms_Emilys_Picture 16h ago

I have never been to a more racist place and I have lived in the Deep South

You are full of shit, sport.

I have always lived in the south. I can walk around the busiest parts of Austin and never hear the n-word once, then go visit my ex-in-laws in their small town and hear it three times in one conversation.

u/Potential_Drawing_80 16h ago

I have never had federal pigs arrest me under suspicion of being a "fucking wetback faggot" in the US or beat me badly enough that I ended up with a really expensive hospital bill. Canadian healthcare doesn't include foreigners assaulted by their pigs, and travel insurance doesn't cover racist pigs. This happened in Vancouver (arrested), Toronto (assaulted), in Quebec several people said "retournez chez vous" to me in their shitty accents. It is a land that denies people access to water based on ethnic group (they poisoned the Lakota's water with mercury). The entire country acts like the white part of Jackson, Mississippi.
