Right, wouldn't that be crazy? So crazy in fact, doesn't it make you wonder how it was so safe for Canada to invade all those other countries it did with the US, hm?

I'm using it to point out that none of the fuckers who went along with all their genocides are gonna offer to go now. When Canada benefitted from their brutality, there wasn't any call for Americans to overthrow their government. I'm advocating for your dumb ass to think about what it says about Canadians that this was the line, and why that line being crossed happens to also be when Canadians feel no responsibility whatsoever to help end it despite their decades of enthusiastic participation in US imperialism.
