New poll says 27% of Canadians view the United States as an 'enemy' country
-
the 30% who said they still consider the US an ally obviously don't read the news
fuck the US. if they're actually serious about this invasion bullshit, I'll kill as many of them as I possibly can. even if it's only one guy, and then my house gets blown up and my charred corpse lands in my neighbour's pool, it'll be worth it.
-
Well... of course they are. We're threatening their right to exist. Don't get me wrong, I don't necessarily always see eye to eye with Canada and its people, but this is beyond fucked up.
-
I have family down there that I'll never see again. There's no way in hell I'm going back down to that shithole, ever. It already felt like enemy territory even before the first Trump administration. Now it's like booking a holiday in Nazi Germany in 1939. Fuck all that.
-
the majority who bothered to vote, that is. I'd be willing to bet that even the shiftless morons who spend all day posting selfies and ignoring reality could eventually be motivated to action if things get bad enough down there. once they lose their followers and have nobody to pose for, what's left for them to do? everybody needs a cause, even if it's an idiotic one. you gotta fight--- for your right--- to post seellllllfies

yes, to state the extremely obvious, he did.

77 million Americans caused trump.

The US is the enemy of the world. Even of its own people.

If that’s true, instead of asking a rather blunt and extremely-easy-to-misinterpret question of individual people, go post a question about it somewhere. The presentation you’ve chosen (I saw the other one in the wild as well) comes across as rude and combative, even if that’s not the intention. It’s a quite bad way to foster open and honest conversation.
Since this Trump thing started rolling a whole month ago, people have been quite openly hostile toward Americans. And like fine, we get it, but many of us -are- doing things, and always have been trying to make things better.. and we are getting caught by the same exhausting “you should have done more!!!! You deserve it, this is what you voted for!!!!! Reeeeee!!!!!” That’s being slung at people who actually do deserve it. It’s really tiring, on top of everything else, to have to defend ourselves and our actions to random insensitive internet people with zero cause. We 75 million active blue voters can only do so much at a time to fix a country of 350 million incredibly diverse people (and we’ve been working at it for years if not decades, this loss was devastating for many of us). Most of whom are either stupid or selfish. Most of whom have never actually seen voting red or blue to have a marked impact on anything, because until quite recently it truly hasn’t made much material difference for your average person.
Before you ask, I’m working on getting my house ready to sell so I can buy some land to build up, solo and with as much manual effort as needed, into an off-grid year-round passive-productive farm (big ask in hardiness zone 4! But I’m
capable!), that forms the foundation of a robust mutual aid network to help everyone I can.. tho the fruits (and veggies) of my labor are far too sweet for the vipers that are fascists, so they get nothing but shot. They made this mess and I will do absolutely nothing to protect them from the consequences. Fortunately, they can’t help but tell you who they are. Every aid package or delivery will contain pro-social messaging, about banding together to get through the hard times, about supporting everyone based on need not ability, etc. I’ll also be building additional housing on this land (again, entirely solo, other than electrical), so I can provide soft landing for friends and family, or hire a person to help me in exchange for food and board for their family. -
30% of people haven't been following the news apparently.

We just cancelled our trip to Disney, which is sad, but I see there are some other locations in Tokyo or Paris, so might look at going there for a middle ground.
-
Those 30% are ether delusional or being polite.
-
That seems like a bit of an unnecessarily hostile response to a joke comment.
-
Riiiight, because intelligent, hardworking people won't want to bail too.
Hope you guys at least accept enlistees
-
US citizen here and I'm surprised that 27% isn't much higher.
-
It's a problem with polls, they don't give enough options and many times and the few options they give mean different to different people. If the US were an enemy I'd be too busy trying to figure out how to blow shit up in the US to have this conversation. That's what I consider the word enemy to mean. We're not there yet.
I'd classify the US as an adversary though. A country I'm opposing by non-violent means.

the 30% who said they still consider the US an ally obviously don't read the news
Or they do, and they like what they see. I'm sure there are a few Canadians who would be fine with being the 51st state. -
US citizen here... can I bump up that number for them please? I'll work and pay taxes without complaining about them.
-
I don’t care if you’re intelligent and hardworking, and frankly if that’s what you think I have a problem with I super don’t want you anywhere north of our borders.
-
So, you think we all are the worst of us?
Given the situation, I can't judge.
