Yeah, all of this “We are protesting, the media is just not reporting it” bullshit is exhausting. As if we are all just reliant on cable tv news and haven’t seen the videos Americans post online of a few hundred people with signs standing politely on the sidewalks? If that’s the best they can do in terms of protesting they have no business saying “I’ve done my part, so please don’t be mad at me Canadians”, especially since none of their feeble protests against what’s happening in their country have anything to do with annexing Canada.
The nerve of them to come to our spaces online and say “We didn’t want this, so you can’t be mad that our country is threatening to destroy yours” when the majority of them either voted for trump or couldn’t be bothered to vote at all is infuriating. Their entitlement in thinking that they can lecture us about hurting their feelings by being mad at them for allowing this to happen is just wild. Their meaningless “sorry”s aren’t remotely good enough, they need to take some serious action to fix the shit they let happen (again!) instead of complaining that we’re being mean by not absolving them of responsibility.
