Try to find honour again. It’s still possible.

As a Canadian, I will never forgive America or the American people for what they have voted for and continue to support. The entire world is worse off the past few years mostly because of you uneducated fucks.

To be fair, Canada is also a genocidal settler-colony and an active imperialist power.

  Point to me the last time Canada waged several illegal wars in the last two years.
  
  I’ll wait.

    Imperialism is not “wages illegal wars,” imperialism is a process of wealth and resource extraction from the global south. Canada participates in this international system, headed by the US Empire, as a willing recipient of the spoils. Further, Canada is a member of NATO, which is a military coalition of imperialist countries designed to prevent backlash from the global south.
    
    I assume you at least agree with the understanding that Canada is a genocidal settler-colony, and therefore should be abolished as a state alongside the US Empire, Israel, etc.

    Who said anything about abolishing America? You’ve managed to make up something in your head then argue with me.
    
    I just said me and millions of other Canadians will never trust America again. And you tried your best to turn that into something wildly different.
    
    Go back to Reddit if you want to argue shit your made up yourself.

Ouch! Why would you comment at all if you think I’m an uneducated moron? Such a war-like stance. Like the americans?

  Unless you’re American, I’m not talking to you. I was just commenting on the whole “they’ll be back and respected” thing.
  
  I was replying that me, and many like me, will never again have respect for America. As a nation they are dead to us. A century of good will and allyship was pissed down the drain in two years and Americans celebrated it.
  
  Fuck that and fuck them.

    So you’re going to ignore all the people who actively are fighting against it and victims of it, and lump everyone into a monolith because that’s what you’ve been told.
    
    I guess it is simpler to throw out nuance and just kinda be a bigot, but it’s not really in line with reality.

    Way too late to be “fighting against it” when 2/3rds of your voting population allowed this to happen in the first place.

    Mild critique, there is no “American nation,” there are settler-colonists that do not form a nation, colonized indigenous groups, and semi-colonies of formerly enslaved peoples.
