    9 mentions in the files: 1 story about someone stealing his watches, 1 matrix joke, 1 mention of 47 Ronin, the rest are duplicates of promotional material for an acting class listing him as a former student.

    Phew, looks like he’s clear.

    If we could make a new political party, and just call it the American people’s party, and make it a genuine party for genuine people, I feel like Keanu should be the parties nominee for president, followed by Jon Stewart

    If you vote for the person you would want to be your boss, the country would be a lot better off.

    Most people wouldn’t want a vindictive, lying, cheating, could raping, fraud with no actual talent, skill, strategy, or empathy as a boss.

      Keanu’s Canadian, so… You could become the 11th province?

      (this is meant as light-hearted ribbing aimed at someone who clearly wants to see their country go in a better direction, I hope it’s taken as such)

        I would totally sign onto that if my taxes get me healthcare

        Honestly, Minnesota, Wisconsin and Illinois are waaaaayyyy closer to joining Canada than you’d think

          Fortunately or unfortunately, Canada isn’t ready to accept them. It would require a major change to our Constitution, and opening that can of worms for major revisions isn’t going to happen (history with Quebec, they never signed on the first time and were forced into it, two attempts to renegotiate failed, they had three referenda on separating from Canada…)

            Ok, Quebec and Texas get to succeed to Quebexas, we get a much less incompetent and slightly less evil government, you no longer get subjected to America’s extremely normal foreign policy. I see no problems here.

              Oh my god… Quebec and Texas together would be the worst pairing. Other than not wanting the federal government to control anything, they have almost nothing in common. e.g. Montreal is one of North America’s most livable cities; Houston is one of the least.

      If you vote for the person you would want to be your boss, the country would be a lot better off.

      And people will 100% tell you that “you’re throwing your vote away”.

    Whilst obviously not as atrocious as being in the Epstein files, Keanu did appear on pseudo-archeologist Graham Hancock’s “Ancient Apocalypse” who has been shitting a load of pseudoscience into current discussion about archaeology and ancient civilisation.

      So we’re a lot of legit scientists, who later said Graham Hancock manipulated the meaning of what was said through editing, or outright misrepresented them by surrounding what was said with a different context.
