On how the coming shortages are set to damage the governments already low popularity

A year ago, this Canadian would have felt a need to help our neighbours.
Right now, this Canadian is laughing and waving my bare ass in a southerly direction.
This is what you voted for you fucking idiots. You're proudly burning down your own house. Best of luck you soup brained simpletons.
Go ahead and laugh but you should thank us. You all were about to elect Pollivierre until we showed you what going down that road will lead to. As the US goes down in flames we can comfort ourselves that we've served as an example to others. We celebrate that Australia also sees the light. As you point and laugh, remember that "there but for the
grace of godability to learn from the mistakes of others go I". I remember in the '90's when Americans were gloating over the collapse of the Soviet Union I said, "Don't laugh, we're probably next." Yes, it took longer than I expected but here we are.I agree you guys helped stop us from electing Canada's version of trump but I highly doubt the lesson learned will stick.
The vote was way too close for comfort and we had to sacrifice our left leaning party to do it.
My bet is after another term of the liberals doing fuck all to fix our problems the conservatives will get their majority next election.
I'm just shaking my head at people acting like the guy you replied to as if this country wasn't filled with dumbfucks.
Anyway best of luck to the sane Americans we will be joining you guys shortly.

Well, maybe it wouldn't stick if what we've seen so far was the worst of it, but unfortunately it's just the beginning. The lesson will be getting much more intense soon.
Anyway best of luck to the sane Americans we will be joining you guys shortly.
Thanks and I hope not!
The children don't deserve this.
Some of us tried voting blue, you know... No need to group us all as the same.
those who voted blue are also kind of assholes. You guys should get real democracy going: Ranked Choice Voting. Burn the current senate, congress and Supreme court down. Build them back properly.
Man, if only that were possible. Every time anything local has tried anything to get ranked choice voting in or get rid of gerrymandering, it gets shot down, and if people tried any direct action they would really get shot down.
Though that second option seems to be more viable each day here.
Wow so glad you in your genius were able to point that out, none of us have ever thought of that before, we'll get right on doing that
It's not that easy, the system will take a lot to change and it will take years. It only comes down to two options. Red or blue. Didn't have much of a choice. That doesn't make us assholes, that makes us at the very mercy of the system. Not voting or voting for the niche party means failure.
What pray tell am I in a blue state supposed to do. Our system is effectively run by 1% of the electorate too stupid to have a fixed opinion in competative states
There's always the high agency option, though only a few Americans are willing to pursue it.
Stop paying taxes and subvert the rule of the United States and the corporations that support it. If your new faction has enough holding power, it will be impossible to dislodge you - remember that the US is awful at asymmetric tactics. ChexSystems can't do jack against you if their power base is weakened from subversion.
We're showing the world what voting for conservatives means. Sometimes a
person'scountry's purpose in life is to be an object lesson.The silver lining for the world, honestly. Maybe this will be the singular time in American history we can learn. Or maybe this is a death spiral.
I mean we were already more conservative than most Western countries. There was pretty much no other outcome than becoming more authoritarian if the right won. Trump is just doing what would've taken any other GOP President a few years or decades even.
object lesson.
abject
adjective
(of something bad) experienced or present to the maximum degree.
(of a situation or condition) extremely unpleasant and degrading.
(of a person or their behaviour) completely without pride or dignity; self-abasing.Not sure why you're putting a definition of abject here? Are you saying that they should have said abject instead of object? That would mean something different.
object lesson
noun
something that serves as a practical example of a principle or abstract idea
Examples of object lesson in a Sentence
His life story is an object lesson in how not to run a business.Maybe they were suggesting a new term of art? I don't know. I avoided up or downvoting because I couldn't tell if they were trying to be clever or confidently wrong.
I try to assume the best in people but... the world is full of all kinds. I'm hopeful, though.
Yeah, that's why I said "not sure", but I figured since they put a definition, it would be OK for me to also put a definition.
Keep in mind that many of us voted for Harris, way too many of us either didn’t care enough to vote or withheld voting because Harris wasn’t ready to nuke Israel, and the rest voted for shitler.
So no, motherfucker, this isn’t what I voted for. Edit: In case I wasn’t clear: I voted for Harris.
I don't think his comment was written to you personally, and I do think it is fair to put the blame of election results on the population as a whole. Although guess it's fair enough to remind people the vote was"t unanimous.
You have a lovely ass and we do not deserve to bask in its glory.
At least fart in our direction…
Precisely!
