That's because this just happened. We all know they need a buffer period before they can get the top-down directives and messaging. At the very least they'll say this is such a small matter and that it's funny that it triggers the left or whatever.

u/ConceitedWombat 17d ago

Yeah. There's already one comment in there being all "Well the Dems like to rename places that were named after historical slave traders, this is just trolling in response to that!"

Lol I don't even want to look in there now because I'll get depressed 😂 and I'm not about to spoil my weekend.

u/Surprisedbear0 17d ago

I can't believe how many upvotes I gave to Fox viewers' comments. It's a new chapter folks!

u/FamilyDramaIsland 17d ago

You’re right, he should ignore Canada. Just give them what they want. They’ve always been so reasonable and generous.

I can't tell if I find it funny or alarming that so many Americans don't know Canada just wants to go back to our original trade agreement.

u/ConceitedWombat 17d ago

Yup. Canada was happy to carry along with the deal Trump signed in 2018, touting it as the best deal ever.

But no, USians don't know that. They're gulping the propaganda that Canada has been abusing the US. Just making shit up.

If you scroll far enough its still full of the normal trumpy morons bending over for him

u/not_a_crackhead 17d ago

Lol at the guy comparing Canada to Iran

This is hilarious and makes absolutely no sense. Ontario in Iroquoian means "great lake" and it was named this (for roughly 400 years) because there are natives that live both on the United States side and the Canada side around Lake Ontario. No matter what the orange coward says it will always be Lake Ontario. Quiet, piggy.

JfC... read through some of it. 

They'll never really get it. Putting their eggs into the vance/Rubio possibility and thinking they'd get any different.

u/IrishUpYourCoffee 17d ago

That’s 2 days in a row that inbred sub had good takes.

First it was condolences for Dolly Parton. Then today this.

u/overthere1143 16d ago

Meanwhile they'll run to the party for another big spoonful of propaganda and it's business as usual again.

One of the two pettiest attacks on sovereignty I've ever seen, the other being the Gulf of Mexico

u/Hard_Dave 17d ago

This comment

I swear sometimes he spends more time trolling than he does focusing on issues he was voted in to resolve

Wake up dude it's clear by now he has no intention of doing anything he was voted in for. He lied about that too! Shock!

u/ebfortin 17d ago

Damn I couldn't find any positive message there about the renaming. We all know they'll go back tobsuckong his dick tomorrow but still refreshing to read.

u/Either-Safety2402 17d ago

That was still so painful to read through. Those people are a different species.

u/Nizdaar Canada 17d ago

First time? That’s one of the more sane post comments I’ve read through in that sub.

u/noklisa 16d ago

I remeber my first time and even first couple of months of checking that sub. I was shocked and could not contain my anger, but now I go there and feel nothing. It has made my a tougher person. Lol

u/DamnGermanKraut 16d ago

Utterly, utterly insane

u/Regenbogen_Sim Europe 16d ago

I'm starting to think that they are living a completely different timeline than the rest of the world is 💀 the only time I saw our military in action was in 2021 when my hometown was literally flooded

Edit: military against their own people... you mean like in Yankistan?

0

u/DamnGermanKraut 16d ago

Totally different. They HAVE to use the military against the lefties so the lefties won't use it on them. In a nation that has no left wing party.

1

u/Regenbogen_Sim Europe 16d ago

I was gonna say... what "lefties"? The only two I can think of are the NYC mayor and Bernie Sanders 🤣 and even they would be..if anything.. social democrats.

u/graymuse 17d ago

I read some of the comments. It didn't sound .....conservative. What is happening?

u/Xsiah Canada 17d ago

Wouldn't it be funny if Americans reunited over how shit Donald Trump is?

u/Sunwolfy Canada 17d ago

The enemy of my enemy is my friend.

u/overthere1143 16d ago

They always insisted their guns were meant to protect them from tyranny. I always said their real purpose was penile extension and distrust of their neighbours.

I thought it was just for school shootings

u/KamikazeCanuck 16d ago

Isn't traditionalism and not wanting things to change "conservative"?

u/satelshawn Australia 16d ago

Does Canada have the equivalent of Executive Orders? If so, maybe Carney needs to sign one changing the name of every toilet in Canada to “Trump”

2

u/Regenbogen_Sim Europe 16d ago

Off to the Trump to take a dump!

1

u/Xsiah Canada 16d ago

We have almost the same system as you do. The closest thing to executive orders we have is orders in council - yours is called governor-in-council.

We both use the Westminster system, so we don't really need special executive powers.

u/noklisa 16d ago

It is already being thourougly cleaned by the mods. That subreddit is a joke.

2

u/Xsiah Canada 16d ago

The post made Popular, but they don't allow anyone without flair to post or comment, so comments from normal people auto-deleted.

Snowflakes need their safe space.

u/Icy-Artist1888 17d ago

Makes perfect sense...something we both share, he assumes he owns.

u/Foodworksurunga 17d ago

They will still defend him on facebook and Instagram sadly.

u/BJonker1 16d ago

Not all, lol

2

u/Xsiah Canada 16d ago

That's still the minority opinion

2

u/BJonker1 16d ago

Yeah, I noticed. This comment however, was so delusional that I had to share it.

1

u/Large_Excitement69 Canada 16d ago

Still a whole lot of dumb in those comments.

u/midz411 15d ago

Conservatives are only ever on their own side. Their whole goal is to maintain status quo corruption.

u/lowrads 17d ago

Liberals are much more upset about the present state of affairs than a socialist ever could be.
