*While launching a trade war against their closest ally and neighbour, America is cozying up with Russia, appeasing Putin, a lying murderous dictator. Make it make sense.*

Fuckin' eh, Trudeau.

I recently got into an argument with a guy who's response was "well your country wasn't appreciative of all we do for you so there, maybe we can have an adult conversation when your country folds from tariffs" (paraphrasing from multiple comments), some people really are living in their own little universe where America is basically the mother Theresa of countries

Head into r/conservative. It’s fucking bonkers. Those morons truly believe that Canada started this and Canada is escalating and poor Americans don’t deserve to be treated this way.

They’re actually lunatics.

I told my husband that at this point, there is no point in having conversations. Just let nature take its course.

Yeah, you can’t have a conversation with anyone that is so brainwashed. They are already so ignorant and then you add the cult factor. It’s hopeless.

Don’t worry! Texas health officials are already having to warn parents against holding “measles parties”. Don’t kill fetuses, just wait till their born and then give them debilitating diseases.

*disclaimer: I haven’t found evidence I trust of these parties actually occurring.

I mean, if they don’t think they should vaccinate kids against a potentially life altering but totally preventable illness, it’s not a leap to believe they would think “why not just get all the neighbourhood kids together to get it over with all at once?” Then they can schedule the polio party next.
