They are free to leave the US and stop empowering our enemy with their taxes.

Oh you think so, hmm?

You think that a lot of us haven’t been looking at every country that might be worthwhile, including spending years learning additional languages, researching our ancestry several generations deep to find countries where we might be able to get ancestry, applying for literally dozens to hundreds of jobs on literally all other continents, and even taking IELFS training and tests and looking at industry changes for jobs just to be able to get out?

It’s not as easy as you think. Even Canada and Mexico have strict requirements that a lot of the people in the U.S. can’t meet.

Literally the closest comparison is the people who wanted to flee Nazi Germany.

Get some perspective. The people who you are complaining about are on the same side as you. We don’t want anything to happen to Canada, and if something does happen between the U.S. and Canada, we will be each other’s best hope.

What international alternatives exist for YouTube? And I understand RedNote as an alternative for TikTok, but YouTube fills a little bit of a different niche.

The people in the blue states are afraid for their lives.

This isn’t a situation where the people in the blue states need to be aware of the danger Trump poses to Canadians and the problems he poses for Canada and need to be made aware of it.

The people in the blue states are unable to afford much of anything now, not food, not healthcare, not housing, not transportation, nothing. And on top of that, they’re afraid of being disappeared because the Trump regime is disappearing people for no cause, because of things like having an autism awareness tattoo or like publishing a letter.

It’s not to say that what Canada is facing from Trump isn’t bad, but no, people in the blue states are MORE aware of the dangers of Trump than you are. Canadians are justified in reacting, absolutely, but people in the U.S. in blue states are not unaware of what’s going on, and don’t need Canadians to make them aware of these things.

Gee, I can’t imagine why Germany would want to slow down government actions…

It looks like a lot of US states are about to declare backsies.

Oh no! It looks like they have their 51st state!

Do you prioritize not having illegal status in another country over your own ability to stay alive and stay safe?

Just make sure you never go anywhere near a protest unless your phone is in airplane mode or off. Governments can use phone networks to tell whose phones are active within a given area.

And talk to the people there to learn how to be more effective.

Each day’s protest has more people than the last, even on days when the weather is awful.

Bring more people to the protests. Don’t stop now.

Parrots can mimic humans too, but they don’t understand what we’re saying the way we do.

It’s interesting how humanity thinks that humans are smarter than animals, but that the benchmark it uses for animals’ intelligence is how well they do an imitation of an animal with a different type of brain.

As if humanity succeeds in imitating other animals and communicating in their languages or about the subjects that they find important.

The United States would be better with a lot more toasters.
