    Cool, let’s alienate the people who are also against this bullshit. I’m sure that will help.

      One American to another, we need to recognize that most of our country either voted for this or enabled it by not voting. Most if us either support this malicious behavior or are apathetic to it. Sure. If you take a poll, most Americans don’t want the us to mess with Canada. But if people won’t even vote, then how do you expect them to take up arms to save Canada?

        Also consider the amount of influence oligarchs created to get their president to power, divide everyone and put blame on each other.

        To be fair, you have to consider the large number of Americans disenfranchised from voting, precisely because they were demographics who would have voted against this.

          Voter suppression is a real and serious problem. I still think most people too beaten down and busy to get out to vote, even if disenfranchised, aren’t about to help out with a civil war or do much to help fix the current regime.

      Americans seem to be mostly waiting for an act or God to fix this mess, so with that in mind it helps to remind them that no you do in fact share responsibility for this, if only by association.
