All comments like these do is make people even more apathetic, or even actively negative against your perspective. With that attitude and obvious complete lack of an attempt to consider differing perspectives or think of situations where people cannot just uprooted their entire lives in a day. Because you clearly think your assumptions of everyone's situations are accurate and inalienable the same way those that support Trump believe he's right.

Since you clearly are willfully trying not to consider alternate perspectives, based on your other responses in this and similar threads, I hope you're first in the front. If you were the only casualty I'll be 100% confident that society across the board would be a better place based on your comments here. The same way that disbanding ICE, or removing Trump from office, would be a net positive across the board.

I am responding to someone who said they will 1000% percent defect to Canada, that person is lying. If they are not willing to make personal sacrifice now, they won't be willing later either.

That's fun that you wish death upon me. You've really shown that you are the bigger person here.

Still doesn't change the fact that Americans who say they will help later, are full of shit and and will never make personal sacrifices to help others.

Always love the Canadians that don't see the exact same stuff taking form in their own backyard. You're just a decade or two away at this rate. I haven't seen any attempts to shift away despite having Trump and US Republicans to show you the next steps ahead on your trajectory.

Still doesn't change the fact that Americans who say they will help later, are full of shit and and will never make personal sacrifices to help others.

Ah yes more generalizations with no basis for them other than your feelings. You're no different than US Republicans there. Feelings and talking down to foreigners are the most important things to spend your time on.

Thank you captain centrist. You're words warmed me with the hotness of their air.
