No one in Canada is asking to be your number one priority.
We just want you to get angry and do something about all of the problems being brought about the fascist dictator your country elected, instead of sitting around and wringing your hands about it.
If you guys can reign in Trump then Canada will be fine. But if you don’t then we’re all fucked, north and south of the border.
The difference is, you’re the ones in a position to stop him. We’re not.
This.
I’m not mad about USAmericans not standing up for Canada specifically.
I’m fucking mad at them for not standing up against literally anything else.
That they don’t care to defend Canada is whatever, but they don’t even care enough to defend themselves.
Forget about Canada, just stand up for your own fucking selves and we’ll be fine.
The problem is, it will require violence and loss of life from the proletariat to make a change at this point. Even the ones that are complaining are not willing to stand up for themselves, let alone anyone else.
I’m fighting on a digital front with my networking and development skills in various ways, and with my wallet and choices in other ways. However, I am beyond ready and itching to get down and dirty with these motherfuckers and start throwing punches. Every one around me just cowers into a, “well, it’s not really so bad yet, I just want to keep buying my [insert big company name product here].” They’ve lost the human ability to adapt and overcome. It’s fucking sad and depressing. I’ve tried so hard to light a fire under my “left-wing” friends that seemingly share in my misery, and I am always met with excuses.
When I make it to the front lines, I fear I will be alone.
It’s a lot easier when there’s nothing to be done, isn’t it? There’s no responsibility anymore. No call to action. Despair is simple. It doesn’t require you to do anything, it only requires that you feel bad.
What as a normal person is there to be done? I shall vote for local people who will resist Trump. I shall vote against Trump and if I’m not allowed to vote I’ll fight.
Great question. Step one is educating yourself on how to answer this question yourself, but better ask this of you local groups, I’m not from Seattle so can’t help you figure this out. But the short answer is to organize.
As the article pointed out, your fellow countrymen were willing to exercise their 2nd amendment rights on beer because a trans person drank some. I’d argue this could be considered a slightly more consequential issue.
I find it hilarious that you and I are being downvoted for being angry and wanting to do something more than just sit back by people in the comments that are saying, “we wish you americans would do something.”
Keep withholding your cash, fellow prole. We can only force our cowardly brethrens’ noses into their own shit and hope they get angry too. The only way for this to be non-violent is to completely withdraw ourselves from the system in all aspects and en masse. Take away their real power.

Basically the only realistic thing an individual could do that would have any effect would absolutely be violence.

Democracy doesn’t happen only on Election Day.
You cant name one godamn thing that matters and you are completely weaseling out

I’m not paying any money to fucks that bend over for Trump either. Buying and shooting the stuff I oppose is less effective than not buying it.

Which might be what he wants. To declare a national emergency so he can send in the national guard on you guys.
