How did you Americans elect Trump? It's obvious to the rest of the world it's at the core of the USA. You are at root, a deeply fucked people. You elected a sociopath. No where else in the world voted for a sociopath. Democracy should eliminate sociopaths.

I need a moment to sit with this. 😅
This shocked me
This is a profound continental divide. Canadians overwhelmingly view other Canadians, even those unlike them, as being good people. Americans, more than any other country, view their neighbours and fellow citizens as bad people. Anti-Americanism flourishes in the United States
We asked people around the world to rate the morality and ethics of others in their country. The U.S. is the only place we surveyed where more adults describe the morality and ethics of others living in the country as bad than good. See our full morality report here: www.pewresearch.org/...
America. Someone called it the "Shining City on the hill" Now? "The festering pile on the landfill."
I read a lot about all this stuff is counter to American values. Trump is the result of American values. Reality TV beats science. Branding beats content. There are reasons we have legislation requiring Canadian content. This is America as we see it and have for decades.
Elbows up finally from Carney. I supported for elbows up and he has been a massive disappointment on that. Finally he found his cajones
I grew up with Rob Reiner. I watched him as Meathead as a child and teen. "Spinal Tap" was formative for me when it came out. "The Princess Bride" I still quote regularly..... Rob Reiner is one of the very few people I would consider an inspriration. The other is the Dalai Lama. That's a short list
Boomer confessions and nerd confessions. I had NO idea Brent Spiner was the judge in Night Court. I fucking LOVED night court. www.youtube.com/watch?v=jrLv...

Hey Americans? Your president is the laughing stock of the rest of the liberal democracies. How does it feel to be a joke? You used to be the scariest nation in the world and we all had to suck up. Now? We can just laugh as your economy implodes, you lose all credibility in foreign affairs...
Winter will be here soon. These people may die. -30c is not forgiving.

The people on X are not happy with this "apology" the majority are calling for his resignation.
I really hope Elon and the other techbros along with the Muskovites get that Mars mission going real soon and they all piss off to Mars. Hell, may as well spend all that US government subsidy on something useful like getting them gone.
“Enyinnah Okere, a deputy minister of communications, also said in an email the interim report won’t be made public, citing no requirement to do so in the terms of the investigation set by the government.” So no interim report for public eyes. #abpoli www.ctvnews.ca/edmonton/art...

Can’t actually believe this needs to be said… No… circumcision doesn’t cause Autism. Yes, I’ve really had someone in replies who believes this.
This is what it looks like when ICE violates our First Amendment rights.
They just tear-gassed us. They tried to run us over in a van holding a peaceful protester. They shot us with pepper balls. They dragged another protester into the facility.
moments ago, ice agents again came out of the broadview detention/“professing” facility to escort a silver suv out of the lot. one of the agents picked up and threw congressional candidate kat abughazaleh to the ground.

I’m sure a lot of people saw this when it first came out during his first, disastrous stint as POTUS. But I missed it. And it’s more relevant than ever. youtu.be/IZDYhQ4UAnA?...
