Canada

I mean, it tracks with their view of the Ukraine situation as well.

It also tracks with the general conservative mindset that the "in group" is protected by laws, but not beholden to them; while the "out group" is beholden to laws, but not protected by them.

Which all tracks with having the mindset of a toddler, free of any shred of empathy, where, until proven otherwise every other person in existence is by default just an NPC without agency or self-determination.

Yeah, seen my fair share of conservatives fail to preface their shock and disagreement with something with a lengthy apologia and get the banhammer for being a 'brigadier'.

It was a highly-awarded reply to the top comment, so it was the second comment you would see by default sorting (though it starts minimized).

But yeah to @OP this is not America or what Americans think. That sub is pure Russian disinfo and astroturfing. You could argue that it represents the administration and current policy, but most of the actual people here recognize this as lunacy, even on within the Putin echo chamber.

If you spent time on other platforms like Threads you’d see a lot more of this being continuously spewed. It’s why I deleted my accounts on several services. While this might be a cherry picked example from that sub, the far right revisionist take is far, far more common on popular social media than you think.

That happens when r/conservative gets to the front page where they are pant’ed/ brigaded.

They do not reach those numbers on their own, and the most heinous shit is defended by the mods with the same voracity as Reagan

Seriously why hasnt reddit banned that subreddit yet? Is not like they ARENT ban happy in other areas!

But I guess fucking fascism is A-OK!!

I hope they skip ahead to the last chapter, the kys-in-a-bunker section specifically.

A shotgun is a really excellent choice. You don't have to be crazy accurate at close quarters, but you can still reach out and touch someone (remember, they're used for hunting Duck, Turkey, and Deer; games have to massively nerf their range because they're OP in real life). The ammo is pretty much everywhere and pretty affordable compared to some others. Also, if things don't kick off, you're not stuck with some mall ninja kit.

Accept the annexation and in 10 years the entire US government will be run by Canadians. Just look at their entertainment industry, they can't resist our Canadian charms.

turns out an ideology that ignores real problems and always seeks out groups to villainize isn't a good way to make long term friends
