What does "white nation" have anything to do with it? Sounds like you definitely own a pointy white hat.
Now that one went over your head by about 5 miles.
They phrased it terribly but I think their point was that it's easy for Americans to shrug off their illegal occupation of Venezuela, but when its closer to home and against a country that looks and speaks the same way they do, Americans might actually complain. But I don't even know at this point considering most Americans seem incapable of fighting back against their government
Yes most Americans are racist against brown people, but knowing us we could really easily be very racist towards Canadians too.
I've got a friend who's a dual citizen of the US and Canada, white, had his brown, Canadian girlfriend with him, drove down to NYC with a Canadian license plate, and on their way back, some truck driver on country roads was giving him a hard time and flipping him fingers. Not sure if the truck driver saw the brown girlfriend, but I'd say it's beyond racist at this point; just dumb nationalists.
Problem is those same Americans are perfectly happy with deploying the National Guard to cities like Portland, DC, and Chicago.
Most Americans are as dumb as a brick but will be the first to tell you they're the smartest mother fucker in the room.
Ya see it's my lack of education that keeps my mind uncucumbered by the liberal lies, and able to think freely enough to hate anyone I'm told to instantly.
They're just too kind, right fellow American? And what's with the cheese curds and gravy in FREEDOM fries, amirite?!?
/s
What the fuck are the American people going to do about it?
I didn't take it that way. I took it as an acknowledgement of systemic racism.
Because it’s one thing to annex a country with people who may look visibly different to average Americans.
But when you try and annex a country that looks very much the same, resistance will be everywhere and invisible.
That guy working next to Americans in the critical infrastructure project? Ya, he’s Canadian and pissed so he’s gonna do something about it.
Yeah my bad it was sarcastic. Canada has urged "all parties" to respect international law" after America has invaded a sovereign nation because Canadians love racism.
I really just meant that the status quo is not challenged by America invading a 'brown' country but a long time ally with close ties to other western countries? Thats a harder sell.
No, is just aware that most Americans do.
