Suggesting that invading and annexing a country is an “enticing offer” if they’re given voting rights instead of becoming an enslaved resource colony is a hell of a take… “But it’ll be good because the USA will benefit!”
Stop sanewashing a horrific invasion with selfish American-centric reasons. I’m trying to say this in the nicest way possible but this is one of the reasons the world despises the USA right now.
I see these types of comments constantly and it blows my mind that some Americans think this is reasonable and not a deeply offensive and ignorant thing to say.
So many of us have friends and family across the border. We know American people are fellow humans like anyone else and that the enemy is MAGA fascism.
Any American I see traveling in Canada without a MAGA hat will be welcomed by me with open arms. Canadians have a degree of empathy for what you’re dealing with because we feel threatened by the fascist takeover too.
Canadians and Americans who give a damn about respecting peoples’ dignity, no matter their gender or race, will stand in solidarity.
Sadly, you’ll want a /s on that if current events are any indication.

Reminder that Pixelfed is a Canadian, federated alternative to Instagram.
Poilievre is Canada’s right-wing aligned with Trump. He will sell us out.
!general@50501.chat. Protest. Join your local Tesla Takedown. 5 calls. Buy Canadian.
The fascists want you to give up. Do not let them win.
They’ve already been doing all of those things for years… Look at how the world is dealing with it. States are lining up to support a state committing genocide. Gazans have been opposing it both armed and unarmed but are vilified by western states just the same.
This was in Canada, you doorknob.
Yeah, our Elections Canada is quite solid.
The influencing of support for our right-wing party endorsed by Elon Musk/Trump/Jordan Peterson via X, Facebook, and campaign financing is the real issue imo.
