Exactly why I’m baffled that Canadians haven’t all deleted their American socials (It’s FREE!). These are propaganda platforms designed to manipulate in favor of fascism, all of Canada’s democracy is at great risk because you cannot have free decisions with a poisoned well of information. Not to mention that this a majority of where the stock market value is held, Google market cap is larger than the entirety of the Canadian economy. Hit them where it hurts already.
Great, now time for action not for talk.
It looked like an execution to me, I believe the world will see it that way within a couple days as well.
Always was. Make no mistake that Alberta is Canada’s Sudetenland/Crimea. Is it not obvious to say the US military appears more similar to Nazi Germany rather than Russia a couple years ago. Canada is stronger with Alberta and when it’s annexed there must be a fight or it’ll just be easier to get at the rest of greater Canada. Ideally to send a message, traitors/secessionists are imprisoned ASAP.
Yeah this is such a pipe dream after over a year of no movement, the first baby step is motivating citizens to voluntarily delete their “free” accounts on US services. Next good luck with corporate adoption, without hefty government subsidies they will never use Linux, LibreOffice, local hosting, or other alternatives. Since the government will not ban these platforms, the only way is to populate locally owned platforms which is ironic considering after so long lemmy is still fairly dead so again good luck.
Liberals are corrupt authoritarians? Woah never knew.
Many in Sudetenland were hoping Hitler to invade. Neville Chamberlain/Czechoslovakia appeased them and made the world lose so much more. You are a traitor appeaser, shameful but you will likely be at war within a year or two so reap what you sow bastard, I’m just glad I had a chance to spit in your face.
The other 2/3rd’s are Carney-Pierre-voting Peronists who will welcome the invader with open arms. Canada still has easily over a trillion invested into the US economy not even counting citizen investments, there has been zero demand to divest investments, ban US propaganda platforms, plus most will allow Alberta to be annexed which will cause the greater Canschluss. Go ahead cry more, downvote, shoot the messenger.
“‘How many members are there in it?’ That is the first question I am asked by newspaper reporters. ‘How many followers have you? By their number we shall judge whether what you say is true or false.’ I do not know how many there are. I am not concerned with that. As I said, if there were even one who had been set free, that is enough.” - J. Krishnamurti
Canadians are still on the wrong side of history. Appeasing authoritarian regimes never ends well, but rather people don’t realize they voted in a neoliberal authoritarian (both major candidates should’ve been replaced, Carney is closely tied to the biggest company in Canada and regularly meets with their board members, he has not even begun to move away any major investments that have minimal consequence, which is proving that he is a fascist), actions speak louder than words. Since this 1/3 stat correlates with the ~30% travel boycott among others, it’s clear that the majority of Canadians are traitors after over a year of knowing the clear truth about their close ally, how unfortunate.
EDIT: You anti-intellectual losers destroyed your own countries’ future and are now trying to shoot/blame the messenger. Canada is in a lost decade, check the GDP-per-capita on the official statscan website which shows flat nominal results, meaning that with inflation this stat has dropped more than 20% since 2018. Seek introspection.

Educate yourself fool. Canada voted in Mussolini.

Carney is a fascist traitor fuck, he still hasn’t even begun to move any investments away from the US. Brookfield is literally Canada’s BlackRock, he still regularly meets with their board members. Check my post history where I’ve been trying to make people aware but instead getting censored and downvoted. This Crime Minister is an important part of Donald’s neoliberal authoritarian cabal.

You guys really don’t get it yet do you?
Alberta is Canada’s Sudetenland, except with digital American propaganda blended in, not radio, posters, or little flyers that are dropped from above. There are many so called “Canadians” who are cheering for the annexation of Alberta online and in real life. Appeasement from the prime minister and citizens in other provinces can be considered traitorous and is causing irreparable damage by providing pretext for invasion (what can you expect from a corpo-fascist crook who has more in common with a BlackRock board member than a Canadian citizen?). If this succeeds make no mistake there will also be Canschluss, this is what they mean when history rhymes. Czechoslovakia lost part of their country and eventually everything, can you imagine what a defense they could have put up since the Germans were hesitant to invade? Thanks to appeasement by the British, the Germans were empowered to destroy significantly more lives.
Tech is America’s biggest product, meaning their most valuable. Canadians are unwilling to hit yankees where it hurts them the most. It’s time to get shit done, and fast. Not in a couple years, not even in a year or two, this has to be a months, even weeks long process. Real Canadians will begin their support and know how to begin the real movement right away. No problem, sometimes it takes time to find the right direction. It all starts with unheard speech just like this and making it commonly accepted. Let me remind that the first victims of Nazis, were Germans, but that rot spread until it was dealt with the right way.
Yeah well when the Canadian government has a couple hundred billion invested in just one investment alone, it’s quite clear that Canada is fucked (isn’t the travel boycott like 100b max?). Still Canadians refuse to boycott the S&P500 because there is nowhere else to invest (other than precious metals lol) and citizens refuse to remove their accounts on non-essential American services (Instagram, Facebook, Linkedin, Paypal, etc). Canada can’t even get their own local e-commerce platform down, Amazon is mostly foreign goods but it is currently the most dominant way to distribute goods and that will not change anytime soon due to insane commercial real estate pricing. For reference Czechia has quarter the population yet has their own massive ecommerce platform Alza.cz, Amazon isn’t even able to compete in that country. Hell, the Canadian government will not stop using D365, Azure, AWS. God damn Canadians are deluded as to what is coming in their future.
In a perfect world no one has nukes, unfortunately we don’t live in that world so the next best thing is that every nation that wants to stay sovereign has nukes.
Facebook helped to cause Arab Spring. These platforms are responsible for the destruction of civilization under the guise of “connecting everyone”.
