        The entire point of the "blame Canada" joke is that it's making fun of people who tried to blame their own problems on something that had nothing to do with the underlying cause for those problems.

        In the song Kenny's parents literally say "should we blame the matches, or should we blame the fire, or the doctors who allowed him to expire? no blame Canada!"

          I don't hear Alex Jones screaming about inside jobs.

          Probably because he's way too far up EMu's ass.

          "It's a fact: jet fuel doesn't burn hot enough to make steel girders melt! It was the lithium-ion batteries from a Model Y and a Cybertruck fired by railgun into the Twin Towers, with Dick Cheney and Saul of Saul's 3rd Avenue Deli pulling the triggers. People seen jumping out of windows were actually trans crisis actors wearing batwing suits, who nowadays tour encampments of Venezuelan gang members and Haitian cat rustlers across the Heartland with their drag, Spanish-language version of Hamilton. Buy my supplements!"

          Whoa, sorry, don't know what came over me there.

              He sure is and I hear you! It's unbelievable how cringy his show is now.

              I used to listen to Alex Jones for fun way before he was big. It was genuinely entertaining. Then Sandyhook happened and it wasn’t so funny anymore.

              Knowledge Fight is like finding friends to make fun of Alex Jones with 🙂

                Aura Carreño Rosas is a Hamilton-based reporter from Venezuela, with a passion for pop culture and unique people with diverse journeys.

                What??? A Venezuelan who hasn't been rounded up, deported and slung into in a third world concentration camp without even the pretense of due process?!?

                Come on Canadia, is that really the kind of country you want to live in???

                  American here, careful Canadians you're walking on thin ice. We're about to beg for your eggs while kneeling rather than grovelling on the floor. I'm fucking serious, we won't pay a dime more than $1 per egg. Pretty please. This is your last warning.

                    Didn't trump say he would concider the vandalism towards teslas a form of terrorism? And hasn't the usa used terrorism as a way to forcefully enter countries in order to "fight terrorism "? What if these acts have been performed by agents from the US to give the government an excuse to invade?...I'm also very stoned right now.

                      The final verse really drives the nail home just in case anyone in the audience somehow didn't get it:

                      Blame Canada
                      Shame on Canada
                      For the smut we must stop, the trash we must smash
                      The laughter and fun must all be undone
                      We must blame them and cause a fuss
                      Before somebody thinks of blaming us!

                        But can these people stop doing it to privately owned vehicles? And also, stop harassing the telsers on the road. I’ve seen a few videos now of drivers being harassed.

                        No. We need to make fascists afraid again. If you don't want to be bothered for owning a Klankar, then stop owning a Klankar.

                        1. By that logic we should be attacking Fords because Henry Ford was a Nazi. Maybe we should be burning 3M and Bayer products in the store?

                        2. Most existing Tesla owners are left-leaning and purchased the car in good faith before Elon was a public Nazi figure.

                        3. It’s not always easy to just sell your car. People are locked into financing contracts and have perhaps shelled out money for charging solutions at their home.

                        Your worldview is childish and reductive. Grow up and come back later.

                          This is why I hate the left is there is a ton of people just as stupid as people on the right. They have no social intelligence. They're out for blind rage blood. On the left and the right these people have that bipolar energy and rise to the top becoming our new voices of reason.

                            Right: 2+2=5
                            Center: 2+2=4.5 (You: "Both sides have good things to offer!")

                              When Trump said he'd prosecute tesla vandals "with the full force of the law" it really highlights the unequal enforcement in our system. Its like saying "I'm going to turn on law enforcement right now just for this issue". He clearly does not believe in laws or law enforcement.

                              Kind of shows that republicans are soft on crime, soft on the legal system in general, and disrespectful of law enforcement, excrpt insomuch as they can be used as personal storm troopers for issues they care about. Republicans are soft on America, but rock hard for Russia.

                                This mentality is frighteningly close to one that justifies vandalism on businesses because they use temporary foreign workers. I don’t condone the destruction of private property owned by the rank and file of life. It should be directed at those who are doing actual harm

                                It is directly hurting the person doing the actual harm. It's not the vandals' fault that he used innocents as his human shield.

                                    Flip them off all you’d like. That’s fine.

                                    When you start brake checking people just cause? I don’t think yer doing the cause any favours.

                                    Flipping off people didn't work, it got the left wing threats of being sent to an El Salvadorean prison. I don't approve or disapprove of the Tesla vandals but you bet your ass it's working.

                                      There is a different view to your statement. We live in a democracy and we had an election where the citizens chose a felon, Nazi, dictator over your side. They would rather have a court certified rapist in charge than you. Just think about that and understand how repulsive and out of touch you have to be for that to happen. This effort to destroy Tesla is only hurting your cause. It is counterproductive, childish, and small. It's almost like you want MAGA to win the next election.

                                      Republicans won because of voter suppression and purging. What you're saying is "Pants on fire" rewriting of history. Also Jan6ers were much, much more violent so I think Democrats are simply trying out their fascism strategy.

                                      Vandalizing Teslas is legal, the precedent was set when Jan6ers were pardoned. So your morality argument is wrong too.

                                        Is Henry Ford, right now, at this moment, a Nazi?

                                        Maybe we should be burning 3M and Bayer products in the store?

                                        Is 3M and Bayer today, at this moment, supporting Nazis?

                                        Most existing Tesla owners are left-leaning and purchased the car in good faith before Elon was a public Nazi figure.

                                        Ok, we're not talking about the past right now. We're talking about the current situation. If they are left-leaning, as you imply, they understand the need to NOT display actively in use Nazi symbols and paraphernalia.

                                        It’s not always easy to just sell your car. People are locked into financing contracts and have perhaps shelled out money for charging solutions at their home.

                                        Then they can park it, cover it with a tarp, and use public transportation. Or, ride bike. Or, use rideshare.

                                        Your worldview is childish and reductive. Grow up and come back later.

                                        No, it's principled: You NEVER show support for nazis, regardless of how inconvenient it is for you.
