Dude, I cannot express how hard I rolled my eyes at yet another internet dude demanding that I take his bitching seriously as an “argument.”

I do not give a shit about what makes Canadians feel less anxious in their nationalistic insecurity now that the imperialism is ever so slightly turned on them, I care about ending a system where decisions are made like choosing endangered ecosystems to build the Gordie Howe Bridge and Herb Grey Parkway on top of. Whatever the fuck kind of freedom fighting you think you’re doing by supporting that system is the LARP of someone who thinks these issues only became real when they noticed them, I don’t take you seriously.

I’m sorry, you’re saying the biggest benefit of this endeavour is that it “undercuts” a single wealthy USAmerican family who still owns an international crossing anyway? Wow, that’s so worth the nearly two decades of destruction in globally threatened habitats and enough funding to support the dwindling social welfare programs that this fucking hellsite country is actually able to operate. Real fuckin one-two to the American economy by building a cheaper trade-route for them while investing more than ever in the fossil fuel industry they single-handedly maintain. Huge fuckin “win.”

This is about as good of a joke as the Bridge.

Oh wow, just in time to take full advantage of the strong, enduring socioeconomic ties between these two friendly nations. I’m so glad they dedicated over five billion dollars and spent sixteen years tearing up the vulnerable (literally endangered) local ecosystem to build this; I’m sure it will benefit me greatly.

Hope to god it isn’t some fucking raytracing, UE5 slop. The lighting in the original was so effective and ran beautifully.

It’s doing what it’s meant to do.

Cool, cite four books you’ve read on anything you just claimed.

“You’re racist for recognizing systemic violence.” People like you disgust me. Not only are you spineless and (actually) racist, you don’t even have the stomach to shut the fuck up and continue to benefit from a fundamentally violent and unequal system. If you want to be a moral person, stop being how you are now.

“You’re working for the billionaires by recognizing genocide of indigenous peoples.” How tf don’t you drown in the shower?

Reread the comment.

Keep hiding, bootlicker.

“The suicide rate for children and youth was previously reported to be 10 times higher among males and 22 times higher among females between 2005 and 2007 in areas with a high percentage of First Nations people compared with low-percentage areas. In Inuit Nunangat, the Inuit homeland made up of the Inuvialuit Region (northwest part of Northwest Territories), Nunavut, Nunavik (Northern Québec), and Nunatsiavut (Northern Labrador), the suicide rate among children and youth was 33 times higher than for the rest of Canada between 2004 and 2008.” ~ https://www150.statcan.gc.ca/n1/pub/99-011-x/99-011-x2019001-eng.htm

The act of genocide is ongoing, and will continue to be so long as this remains a settler-colonial state. Their conditions are worse on purpose, their options are limited on purpose. “Avoiding responsibility” is the same thing as fucking genocide; why do you think they’d have to avoid responsibility if they did not intend to benefit from those previous actions? You think Doug Ford doesn’t realize the Ring of Fire is First Nations territory legally? You think Mark Carney isn’t thinking about the Indian Act when his govt is slashing environmental protections with the explicit intent to construct extractive infrastructure without First Nations consultation?

“The list of reparations could be infinite.” But they’re not, and indigenous peoples across North America have been very clear about what reconciliation would take. You have inadvertently acknowledged that Land Back poses an existential crisis for US and Canadian imperialism, because the idea of shared relationship and respect for the land is the same as an infinite cost.

I know you people aren’t too stupid to understand how actions correlate with consequences, not intent. So, I know there’s a reason why you’ve chosen to suspend your object permanence when it comes to settler-colonialism. You know what it is, you just don’t like how comfortable you are benefiting from it. Wait 'till you hear about what Canada does internationally.

Tell those fucking kids who are killing themselves because of Canadian imperialism and settler-colonialism about how it’s actually been over for fifty years and they should just stop asking for the criminals to accept justice. Disgusting. Spineless.

“How terrible, but not that bad.” Yup, that’s a Canadian.

White Canadians believe they’re in on it, they’d rather be responsible investors and become landlords. They didn’t care about US fascism or imperialism until it effected them in the most marginal way, they don’t want anti-US-imperialism to effect Canadian imperialism, they don’t have the heart that you need to even acknowledge class warfare.

I’m often disgusted by Canadians.

Remember that when you need US activist tactics to fight our own government when it inevitably adopts increasingly authoritarian capitalist tactics. Carney’s already trying to remove all environmental regulations and internet privacy, wonder why.

You’re a helpless doormat.

They clearly do not appreciate them. Canadians are fucking colonizers. They don’t want colonialism or capitalism overturned, they want the bad guy in charge gone because they think he’s what’s making it uncomfortable for them. You clearly don’t know the people you’re talking about.

“Poor black people’s sacrifices in the fight against fascism is irrelevant because the literal highest position of power in the state wasn’t overthrown.”

Totally a person who’s ever had to fight for fucking anything.

Then you should probably try to US imperialism in Canada. I don’t want my fucking country to be even more destroyed by capitalism, maybe I just care more about Canadians than you do.

“Not really doing anything.”

That’s about the most privileged Canadian shit as I’ve ever read. People have fought US imperialism for centuries, including the same groups of people targeted by its fascist government today. There are dozens of examples of mutual aid and direct action campaigns that protect people from being abducted and thrown in prison camps or worse. They’re not doing anything because why, it doesn’t help you for people to create networks of action and support to the benefit of their communities? They’re fucking being abducted by what was already a surveillance police state with centuries of racist, ableist, misogynist, queerphobic, transphobic, and settler-colonial violence. It isn’t “prickly” to discount the work other people have done to challenge a fascist dictatorship just because it gave you a booboo now, it’s fucking entitled and petulant.

How many people have died fighting this empire in the last year alone? What the fuck are you doing? Not buying American whiskey? Get the fuck over yourself, go sabotage the Oil Sands if you wanna talk the big talk.

Edit: fuck each and every Canadian who doesn’t recognize American anti-fascist action, you are traitors to the rest of us. Colonizers will always resort to self-destruction before they accept the responsibility to change.
