I’m not judging every American individually, some did try hard to prevent this mess, but I am judging America collectively for allowing this to happen. I’m sick of being told the vast majority were against Trump. If the VAST majority are against him, he’d have lost the election by a landslide. I don’t understand the weird political inertia in America that guarantees every major candidate roughly half the votes no matter what. And fuck those who say that a lot of Americans didn’t vote, as though that exonerates them. Choosing not to vote means they didn’t give a fuck if fascists took over.

The US disenfranchises voters with a variety of techniques. One of those techniques is to foster guarantee popular candidates aren’t afforded a place on the general election ballot.
If you’ve got nobody to vote for, I can’t blame you for not voting. Demanding people participate in a ritualized farce of democracy when the race is uncontested is pure foolishness.
I mean, it was obviously a mistake but fair to judge even if it’s on a completely different scale to half your country eagerly electing a modern day pedophilic fascist a SECOND time who has proceeded to fuck over most of the world and repeatedly threatened to annex my country.
You could have mentioned Canada’s treatment of indigenous peoples and the residential schools that went on as late as the 1990s which would have also been a fair thing to judge (I judge it too) but I’m still going to judge the USA harshly for enthusiastically electing a shit starting demented pedo nazi
It has cascading effects. Boycotts are kind of great like that and also it’s why they’re so highly propogandized against. “It doesn’t work bro, it won’t change anything. Why wouldn’t you just use google” don’t buy it. Boycott more stuff.
Aw, are Americans sad that they’re being collectively judged and punished as an indistinct collective group?
… first time?
Maybe we should actually get our own house in order?
Just, you know, that?
That first?
No whining, no conditional explanations of layers and degrees of … nah, just… actually geting our shit together?
Actually taking some accountability?
No, we desperately need the whole world to boycott us to save us from the orange chomo-in-chief
We’re not being collectively judged and punished. Some number of American wine distributors are seeing a decline in their Canadian portfolios.
Why would the rest of us give a shit? That’s their problem, not ours.

Nah you guys definitely are being judged
Everyone’s being judged.
I’m still judging you guys for inviting a real actual living 1930s fascist to your Parliament to applaud his work.

Reading this in Alex Jones voice
on some small, sad level i probably am the deranged left equivalent of Alex. but Tim Heidecker does it funnier
Can’t believe Alex exploded in his car like that. And now he’s got a clone?
Crazy days.
