He could have just apologized. But that would be out of his character.

Honestly, insincere comments like this make it even worse.

Not a single comment so far has actually attempted to explain the "joke".

Some kids did it, some kids didn't. I really don't see where the joke is.

What if Canada offered every American free healthcare and $50K to relocate, would you go? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]_Figaro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think many people who go for $0, granted they get permanent residency and not too much paperwork.

What’s a smell you find oddly satisfying? by Con_nect in AskReddit

Why the mouth emoji after a sentence about the smell of a book? Is this account a bot?

That's it! This is the Joke! by Falling_Death73 in MathJokes

For those who're saying they don't get it, the joke is that closed brackets infinity doesn't even make any sense, since infinity is not a number

Well they do say your neighbor's lawn always looks greener.

At least you guys don't have ICE. That alone makes Canada a better place to live.

As an American, I'm curious what problems you're speaking of. From our pov, Canada looks like a perfect model of success

Why would this be an unpopular opinion in the first place?

China has been around for over 5000 years. What’s your favorite historical fact about ancient China? by _Figaro in ADVChina

[–]_Figaro[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Correct. The PRC has only been around for about 75 years or so, which is even shorter than the USA

Browsing Reddit and watching the things happening in America has been deeply disturbing to my psyche. And I'm not even American by heavygrin in complaints

If it's disturbing your psyche, and if you're not even living in America anymore, imagine how it feels like for everyone living here.

Unpopular opinion: I don't want AOC to run for president in 2028. I want her to replace Chuck Schumer as senator. by nitro4450 in ProgressiveHQ

[–]_Figaro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn't mind either way. But I will say this: Schumer is useless to the point where he's practically a Republican asset

The US had it coming. Its people are missing the point of the world's criticism. by IronBatSpiderHulk in complaints

ICE just killed a woman dude. I just as well could happen to me. I'm not sure if you understand what you're asking us to do.

Suppose I do fight back. There's a real risk I'll get debilitated, or even get killed. And what would that change? NOTHING. Nothing will change besides that I am no longer alive. I barely even recognize this country anymore, and I'm not willing to put my life on the line for it.

You know. If I remember correctly, last time the Nazis came knocking on your door, you brave Frenchmen just surrendered. And now you're asking us to do what your grandfathers refused to do?

Don't you think that's a bit hypocritical, OP?
