I bet more in ten Americans feel the same way about Americans.

... It's probably about the same. A certain idiot never really dips below 38% approval rating.

They don't trust us, we don't trust them.

[–] Whostosay@sh.itjust.works 8 points 1 year ago

I don't know who we is, but you're right.

Yeah, I was just wondering what the hell is wrong with 4/10 Canadians?

As an US American watching two decades of secular human sacrifice through the long tail of the gunpowder revolution has left me undernourished and starving for humanity.

[–] Triumph@fedia.io 2 points 1 year ago

I’m afraid that the humanity you starve for has always been an ideal, and not reality.

It feels like we're near or possibly over the precipice of losing our democracy

I'd just caution our friends to the north and those across the pond that when I look at people like Carney and Starmer I see people as bad or worse than Biden and then I look at who's waiting in the wings..

[–] WizardofFrobozz@lemmy.ca 11 points 1 year ago

It’s been gone since Citizens United, dude.

Definitely worse than Biden, but the systems they're running are better than the one in America so it about evens out. Which, given how the American situation went, is really fucking bad.
