lmao I got called an "imperial chauvinist" and a "raging misanthrope" in this thread because I think critical support for an imperialist government that gave a standing ovation to an SS officer isn't a tenable position for socialists to advance, so let's not get precious or in our feelings all right

OBVIOUSLY we extend solidarity to the working class of Canada no matter what the US and the SS loving Canuck state decides to do, but that is not the same thing as cheerleading whatever bullshit response the Canadian gov cooks up in response to Trump's expansionist mood, especially when that response will be, as some comments have already predicted; a partial or full surrender

::: spoiler i got into feelings but also apology

Yeah fuck it I'm getting into feelings cuz this is the only site i ever feel comfortable rarely putting my fucking embarrassing feelings , i can angry debate anywhere else on the internet

I'm sorry, I came into this thread with way too many assumptions

I hate this site for how debatey and hostile it is, it seeps into everything including how I interact with it. I should have engaged in some kind of better way. I'm not even okay with dogpiling libs anymore it just creates a horrible atmosphere and I'm not gonna do it anymore

I hope I didn't upset you when I said those things, I'm sorry

I'm gonna take a site break, maybe forever cuz this has upset me way way too much and i feel like this may keep happening if i stay here cuz its not the first time

i said I was disengaging before but i saw this and had to reply, im going for real now

i will think about what you said it was never my intent to run defense for settler colonialism and that was maybe what i was doing

Disagreements happen, you had your takes, I had mine, we both should've been more charitable, but misunderstandings happen in the heat of the moment and perhaps I was a little too defensive, I'm sorry too

You didn't upset me and I hope I didn't ruin your day cause that's the last thing I want, you got a big heart comrade and that's no crime, have a good night
