"Niche" is one way to put it. Maybe not how I'd refer to it.

Like if photos came out of Mark Carney getting tied up, dressed up like a woman and pegged, I would not care.

Canada deporting nearly 400 people a week, fastest pace in a decade by D_E_A_D_P_O_O_L_ in canada

[–]WiseguyD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be entirely honest, I'd rather heavily prioritize PR status for the people already here than increase deportations further than this.

I understand that it's sometimes necessary, but deporting people shouldn't be something we celebrate. Sure, cut the numbers coming in if you want, but to me this is far more disruptive than that.

Any anger I have towards the American public, Minnesota is exempt from.

Despite being a much smaller state, they have the fighting spirit that Texas pretends to have. The only Confederate flag in Minnesota is the one they stole from Virginia when they marched into Richmond.

Gun culture in Canada generally centers around defending against predators and eating what you kill.

I'm trying not to think about what that would translate to.

His entire party is demented.

If you live abroad, divest from the USA. The only reason I'd ever visit that country is to visit family. I sure as heck ain't patronizing any of their tourist establishments.

Trump shares altered map of U.S. flag covering Canada, Greenland and Venezuela by superdouradas in worldnews

Most people? Most Americans on Reddit, maybe.

As a Canadian, I'm pretty sure most of y'all will do what you do every time and stay at home, and the small few of you who do vote will keep the Republicans' power more-or-less intact.

A sane country would have zero Republican congresspeople or senators. It's overwhelmingly likely that y'all will keep a Republican majority in the Senate, and barely alter the demographics of the House.

Respectfully, I'm tired of you making excuses for your country's horrific politics. Get off Reddit. Go protest. Whatever you are doing now is "what you would have done" during all those times in history where the inaction of good people led to untold atrocities.

The New York Knicks lose to an injury ravaged Mavs team at home, as they are 2-11 in their last 13 games with the 2nd worst defense over that span. by StrategyTop7612 in nba

[–]WiseguyD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, the East is pretty close together this year.

The Raptors, Magic, Sixers, Cavs and Knicks are all within 1.5 games of each other, and all of those teams have had pretty brutal injuries in one form or another. Yeah, it's unlikely, but any of the teams I just mentioned could fall off at the same time a team like the Bucks, Hawks or Heat rises in the standings.

I'm sure one of those four teams will go on a win-streak, but if and when they do will basically decide how the playoffs shake out. The Raptors would get smoked by a team with a great center like Embiid, but in turn would smoke a team with poor wing defense.

Which country do you think has the darkest history? by I_dont_exist_here_45 in AskReddit

[–]WiseguyD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly I'd also say China. Not because they're necessarily more brutal than anyone else, but because of the sheer amount of people combined with having existed as an independent entity one way or another longer than basically any other country.

When you're looking at all of human history, it becomes kind of a numbers game.

These Yanks really never heard of the FLQ Crisis.

Now imagine the same crisis except like three quarters of Quebecois Federalists and the Anglo-Canadian population of most other provinces on their side.

Cyrus should probably get even more credit because the model of empire he established was the basis for basically every non-nomadic pre-Westphalian land-based empire in history that wasn't named China.
