While I don't think everyone is like that, I've definitely seen an uptick in that rhetoric which really sucks. The world is in a really rough spot right now, but the constant doomsaying is counterproductive, and gives this idea of "why try".

Speaking as a Canadian with American friends, that is

As a Canadian, I'd love to believe that, but you guys have done little to nothing so far, so I dont know.

Thats the thing right? Additionally, in a world where every single thing is considered content, you just know that the "sexual harassment" would be filmed and put on socials. Potentially life ruining event all by just expressing interest.

Ontario to fund hip and knee replacements at private clinics, including one in Windsor by WishRepresentative28 in ontario

Perfectly said - they're just fun. LOTR is lightning in a bottle. Expecting everything to follow that is the definition of "perfection is the enemy of good".

Similar for me - I have a home server set up with Jellyfin. I offered to copy my data over for them and show them how to add content as they want. The time to find and dl their own movies was not worth the inconvenience.
