Damn your eyes.

The most beautiful thing about the internet is that normally, I would have to spend a lot money on bear spray and a lot of effort administering it to get the same effect I get with the few clicks of a button.

    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.

        So the sins of some are on the shoulders of all? There’s some Inuit corpses under some schools you might want to take care of then.

          Yup, and I’m an advocate for holding those still alive who were involved in those Residential Schools be held accountable. Not to mention my brother is Indigenous so this really isn’t a flex.

          Also, there are no more functioning Residential Schools in Canada anymore. Meanwhile the USA is still murdering their own citizens as we speak with ICE raids.

          But I suppose when you don’t really have a leg to stand on, you’ll throw anything at the wall to make it stick. Last I checked my country in the last two years hasn’t invaded three countries, and threatened annexation of two of their closest allies. But what do I know.

          So the sins of some are on the shoulders of all?

          It’s your country. Go fix it.

            Oh hey guess what, I, and a lot of other people are trying to fix it, but according to you we’re just as bad. According to you, the person getting shot in the head is the same as the ice agent doing the shooting. According to you, the trans person getting beaten in the street is the same as the neo Nazi doing the beating.

            Because we’re all Americans so we’re all shit. No victims here, only assholes who deserve it. Everyone’s the same and thinks the same.

        I think the general breakdown is: one-third voted for trump, one-third voted for harris and the last third just couldn’t be fucking bothered to participate. It’s that last group I save my biggest disdain for.
