        Honestly, even then. 45 was always unhinged but 47 has really lowered the bar more than was ever thought possible.

        It’s a combination of very stupid/uninformed voters, and hardcore fascist voters who don’t care how bad their own lives get, as long as immigrants and trans people get gassed. A lot of people think the latter group is a minority, but I actually think it’s the other way around. I think most people who voted for Trump are just fascists and the uninformed are maybe 20% max.

    It’s like he’s campaigning for the liberals. Almost no one in Canada wants to hear this and I bet they will vote against whatever they see as aligned with this.

      #1 Ontario being the population of Pennsylvania

      #9 New foundland being the population of Wyoming

      #10 Prince Edward Island only has 150k, could lump in 150k from northern territories

      20 senators for 40m, 5.0E-7 senators per person

      200 senators for 340m, 5.88E-7 senators per person

      It seems pretty fair

          What? They eat horse paste just like the ones down south. We have maple maga here that fly confederate flags et al. All that would do is increase their numbers, not make them less fascist.

    What is it with Trump and always “being subsidized by us” and “take away from us” while the US has trillions of debt in other countries? 300 billions to my home country alone, which doesn’t even compare to some other countries.

        He trusts that his followers don’t, anyway. Based on some arguments I’ve seen online, he’s right about that.

          I mean, he always calls trade deficit a “subsidy”, and has since 2016. I honestly don’t think he understand what that concept means, he’s not that subtle with manipulation.

      He is incapable of understanding mutual trade and cooperation. To him every human interaction must have a winner and a loser. So if Canada is benefiting from trade with the US in his mind it must be at America’s expense. It’s a disturbingly simple view of trade and cooperation, and one that makes actual good faith discourse with the US near impossible.

      He keeps referring to the disproportionate US export income to import costs. Something like 2 trillion in exports to 3 trillion in imports. 1 trillion lost from the US every year, and ~30% to Canada that’s his math

      Because Trump is a troll. He doesn’t give a shit if what he says or does is correct. Trying to make sense of the schmuck gives me a headache.

    Hypothetically, if canada becomes a state, would they flip our house of representatives blue? I guess more likely they’ll become like puerto rico or guam or something.

      This is what you need to keep foremost in your mind. There is no conceivable reality in which the US conquers (yes conquers, they can call it annexation all they want but at the end of the day Trump wants a conquest to his name) Canada and gives any semblance of voting or personal rights to Canadians. Hell, even if Canada was somehow persuaded into voluntarily joining the US, this regime would never, ever honour any kind of arrangement that gave Canadians a fair deal. They are fascist bullies, as close to actual evil as we’ve seen in North America in a very long time, and they have no interest in any sort of fair bargain.

      They’d annex the land, and then deport all the Canadian foreigners that illegally immigrated in the US.

        This is actually one of the most interesting and entertaining timelines.

        There was only supposed to be enough source data to make it to 2012- and that was originally a very generous buffer, since a fraction of a percent of Earths last more than 10 years after both networked computers and nuclear weapons have been invented in-simulation.

        So, the operators decided not to pull the plug and just let this one run its course.

        As it extrapolates history farther and farther outside of the initial parameters, the simulator is cannibalizing itself with feedback and undergoing model collapse.

    Will. Never. Happen.

    Canadians will literally die before living for a milisecond as Americans.

    And - this is a declaration of war by the US president. Cause it would take a military invasion to violently turn Canadians into Americans.

      It has long been the case, that if you confuse a Canadian for an American they are offended, but if you confuse an American for a Canadian they don’t mind.
