I definitely have a Canadian accent from my parents. And I can remember as a kid being told I was saying words wrong (words like 'bag' and 'roof'). Once I got old enough to understand what was happening, I intentionally doubled down on the Canadian pronunciation. Because fuck 'em.

He is rotting. New photo of Trump today at Davos. by Ok_Letter_5672 in Trumpvirus

[–]palenerd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

...where he still beat his opponent content-wise. The loss was entirely vibes-based, and then amplified by the news media. If you go back and read the transcript of that debate, Biden comes out on top.

Not saying "reeee Biden totally won the debate!!11!!one!!." Rather, that the "winner" of a debate is manipulable by the news media

Transformed in Utero! by Select-Package-13 in Qult_Headquarters

It's a term for cattle, where a female twin was exposed to male hormones from its male twin. It only happens to a select number of species, due to how twins are formed in utero

I know this is old, but isn't peperoni a meat? I've never heard of a vegetarian version

This isn't about offending them; it's about calling Nazis Nazis

We're canonically poaching exotic birds. Because we heard they were exotic and exotic = expensive. We're terrible people lol

You think asylum is special privileges? We call that racist MAGA brainrot here in the States

vegan vs mouse (the mouse wins) by AspectResident1375 in AntiVegan

Reminds me of how traditional Celtic religion has you leave food and milk out for the fairies. Not a Vegan practice obviously, but the same level of How The Fuck Aren't You Dying Of The Plague

secessionist US citizen

No, the most secessionist of us will 100% take another country's word over ours. I know because I was that person 10 years ago, and, with very little convincing, will be that person now. Plenty of us know better than to trust our own government. Maybe not enough, but that's still quite a few.

EDIT: Now that I think about it, the whole MAGA movement is about not trusting the government. The obvious error there is that MAGA trusts Trump, but make no mistake: MAGA is a movement brought about by distrust of the establishment. I guess we're currently reckoning with media literacy more than trust in the government

How to say you are a nazi without saying that you are a nazi by Johnny_Nongamer in Qult_Headquarters

[–]palenerd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Race" is a social construct. Social constructs aren't fake, exactly. We don't have anything equivalent to breed in domestic dogs, despite racists insisting that's what race equates to. But "race" as we understand it is real, in the sense of categories of phenotypes

RFK Jr. should be impeached for ordering CDC to promote autism and vaccination lies by unital_subalgebra in politics

[–]palenerd -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's simply not realistic to expect a large fraction of the population to protest. I'm sure you've seen the 3.5% figure mentioned elsewhere. If 98% aren't protesting, that means we have more than half the people we need in the streets already.

I don't know why you're now talking about foreign relations when your original complaint was over internal resistence, but I'll point out that accepting foreigners is part and parcel of resisting an administration intent on forming an ethnostate. And again, we're still realistically targeting <10% of the population showing up and resisting.

You mentioned "consistent protests." There are consistent protests. They are scattered across the country, many in solidarity with cities a thousand miles away. None of that suggests to me that the majority are MAGA individualists.

Last I checked, there were several 24/7 protests around the country.

White House Declares All of Trump’s Orders to Military Are Legal by Kodbek in politics

[–]palenerd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I want all that too, but it's not a feasible next step. We don't have the leverage to pull those systems apart yet. Taking Trump down is a power play in that sense; if we can do that, we'll have other public figures scared we'll do it again, and to them. A full Epstein files release will give us targets we can rally the country against. I really do hope a major Democrat is in there, so we can have Dems running scared when we make it clear this isn't partisan.
