Don’t worry my immigrant friends, Americans will continue posting performative outrage online while doing absolutely nothing about it 😑

Racism against Indians has been like totally ignored by so many people I know that act like they're all woke and shit because they don't like racists that are racist against other groups And then they'll turn around and say the most vile shit about Indians for no reason

The worst thing we’ve done in our more liberal modern era is create this notion that every opinion is worthy of respect. That racists should be heard. No. Displaying a Confederate flag with any enthusiasm is not worthy of respect. Many such examples!

She's correct. Canadian Reddit & FB are rife with comments like "I'm not racist, but I see so many immigrants around me and blablabla jobs housing blablabla". You can't "see" who is an immigrant and who isn't. If you encounter this rhetoric online or offline, shut it down immediately each time.

This is my hometown and these are violent, seditious white nationalists. Folks, chances are that sympathizers exist in your own circle of family, friends, and coworkers. If you are white, use your privilege and denounce this rhetoric every chance you get. Silence allows it to be normalized.

A reminder that every person who voted for Trump voted for this.

PSA TO THE MODEL MINORITIES: Yt nationalists resent you being more successful than they are. Education, wealth, and comparative social status are not going to save you from being ICEd. Pick a side and get your head in the game.

When I was in the US army 25 years ago a poll was taken among my basic training company, %40 joined just to rape and murder without repercussions and this was me finding that out. He will attack Greenland and Canada is next. No amount of apologies will help. I am but one snowflake amid an avalanche

Studied govt policy, then law, spent about a decade in finance and banking. If we invade Greenland life, as we have known it in the United States, is over. It’ll be brutal in ways most Americans can’t comprehend.

The vast majority of treasonous trash—the separatists and Maple MAGAs—were born and raised in Canada. I never, ever want to hear a Canadian using the phrase "born-and-raised" as some sort of yardstick of being authentically Canadian (this rhetoric is on the upswing). Loyalty makes you Canadian.

There is a peculiar kind of racism, one that I'm struggling to articulate, in being so surprised that the USA sparking WW3 is a real possibility. "It's not the Chinese or Middle Easterners we have to worry about; it's Americans?!" People are bewildered by it, but I posit to you: You shouldn't be.

I am so appreciative of the Treaty Nations taking a stand. I feel helpless it has come to this, they shouldn’t have to do this. Smith and our government should be ashamed with the lack of respect they are showing to Treaty Nations.

Danielle Smith and her separatist friends need to understand that the Treaty Nations effectively give us license to be here and not the other way around.

Keith Porter's daughter talks about how her father was murdered by an off-duty ICE agent in Los Angeles

A thread you should bookmark. I wonder how many of these people (mostly in their 20s, 30s and 40s) died from dehydration or complications of dehydration. It's a well-known fact that ICE internment camps are depriving prisoners of water.

I have seen <25 y/o racists abusing older Canadians of immigrant origin online. The irony is that the latter were *already* Canadians before the former were zygotes. None of this is even remotely rational (I suppose hatred never is).

I wouldn’t be too sure about that. Millions of Americans are so poorly educated & indoctrinated that they literally fall into the moron category. Reasoning & factual information never enters their lives. Have you ever tried talking to a Trumper? It’s like talking to a block wall. But good luck!

One of the bizarre things I'm seeing on FB is Gen Z men & women posting bigoted & hateful comments that'd embarrass even a racist old grandpa. Then I scroll down their profile to pre-2019 and it's all about support for prog causes & politics. They can't all be bots. Covid brain effects? Disinfo?

While your risk of being pickpocketed is modestly higher in a French railway station than an American one, your risk of being abducted and sent to an internment camp to dehydrate to death is infinitely higher in the US than in France. Canadians, stop visiting the US. It's beyond unsafe.

I find Trump a risk to European security. I would like all US military bases removed from Europe until a sane American is back in power.

The Far Right who now run the USA think the problem with WW2 was that they didn't takeover everything. That is exactly what they will do, first N.America and Greenland, then Europe.

6/ What about Flu A in kids, like my currently very sick one who was bullied into unmasking in #bced with insufficient ventilation and filtration and masks? Oh, sweet jeebuz 😭 This year: 345 cases Last year this time: 93 cases #FluIsAirborne #bcpoli @ipaccanada.bsky.social @cma-docs.bsky.social

#Flu #Covid Our strategy for dining with extended family/friends is to eat & drink outdoors. It's not zero risk but it's *much* lower risk than indoors. We're doing exactly that in the backyard this Xmas Eve, assisted by a patio heater. Forecast is +2°C, easily dealt with by bundling up.

This video is going viral on IG and the comments are full of parents laughing and saying how this is totally true But airborne viruses like Covid & the flu are spread primarily through inhaling infectious particles, not through cookies

An "ugly sweater" Christmas party I went to last week. Contrary to popular belief, those of us still masking aren't necessarily avoiding society; we just choose to avoid respiratory illnesses that could otherwise suck weeks out of our lives each year. This N95 + sip valve combo is one I use often.

Tribalism based on physical traits or perceived ethnic origin is a huge pet peeve of mine. I used to vend at an SK farmers' market & saw a microcosm of this when my MIL (visiting from France & speaking little English) would accompany me to help out. A good % of customers refused to engage with me 1/

I can confirm this through my own numerous conversations with “concerned” friends and family and I despise that most of our current economic and cultural woes can be boiled down to bad decisions based on “I see more brown people and this upsets me” 😡

Pull up any Reddit thread—you see formerly reasonable Canadians complaining "everyone" around them is brown. Those brown folk may be Canadians too. They may not be culturally different in any significant way. None of it matters. Irrationally tribal sentiments about skin colour are manifesting.

"Travel down due to trade war and low loonie" Who writes this shit using my tax dollars? It's not "trade war" or "low loonie" it's the warmongering fuckrat in the Whitehouse who is actively threatening our sovereignty while planning to invade Venezuela tomorrow knowing the US military will do it.

"Should you still go to parties?" You'll get opinions at both extremes. Here's my approach—I go to them while wearing an N95 outfitted with a sip valve. I'm going to a secret Santa thingamajig tomorrow exactly this way. Cocktails ✅️ infections ❌️. Of course, flu shot and two Covid shots this season ✅️.

We're starting to see it in the Canadian & European lexicon too. If we don't stop this movement, we'll revisit the 1940s. Louder for the people in the back: It's a dog whistle targeting all people of colour, including Canadian/American citizens. It's not just about irregular or temporary residents.

In other news, my wife & I just received our second Covid vaccine dose of the 2025-26 season here in France. Pfizer/Comirnaty is the only type offered here. Living in Europe near the border with two other countries comes in handy when seeking to get vaccinated 2-3 times a year.

A racist Canadian man on FB argued with me yesterday on this topic, insisting that I wasn't "from Canada" because I wasn't born in Canada. This is exactly the kind of discourse I was referring to. These are people with rigid & narrow-minded perspectives trying to gaslight the rest of us.

Excellent point.

One of the enraging aspects of MAGA-influenced public discourse, not only in the US but also in Canada, the EU & elsewhere, is that we've retrogressed on the idea of people having the right to define their own (often complex) identities. We're back to defining people by name, ethnicity & birthplace.

Picked some cilantro today for a taco brunch. Our winter garden supplies us with all the veggies we need. One of the #Canadian cultural traits I unabashedly imported into France is our love for multicultural cuisine (this is the essence of Canadian culture, not the revisionist Maple MAGA narrative).

The irony of nationalism is that it eventually targets its own citizens, the very citizens it claims to protect from unnamed external enemies. 100% of examples from history follow this pattern. The US is no different. Canada will experience the same if we don't clamp down on white nationalism soon.

"Canadians tend to think of far-right extremism and white nationalism as a strictly American problem...but these movements are gaining a foothold in mainstream [Canadian] culture, and the structure for that to happen has been in this country since its inception" thewalrus.ca/far-right-ex...

Media 🧵 Please stop asking this question. It's not friendly conversation making. Whether you're aware or not, whether you accept it or not, it's othering and therefore it's dangerous. Fin.

White nationalism is the unifying force behind all these traitorous, seditious movements across Canada.

And toxic masculinity. And it has been a revelation to me to see just how many people (across different demographics) revere all of this.

Can we forbid entry to Americans with pro-MAGA views, then? Because every time I meet an US tourist now, I'm worried that I'm talking to a Nazi.

🚨Graphic ICE Content Warning 👹Lucifer, Beelzebub, Satan & Mephistopheles all converged for this kind of evil intentional shit to happen! 🤬This is a one way ticket straight to hell! Don’t pass go, don’t collect $200 & no 🤬 hand basket!

Yes, it is. We're definitely feeling the effects in Canada & the EU. It's impossible for me to comment on a public Facebook page these days without getting racist slurs from fellow Canadians radicalized by the US. Some may be bots from foreign countries. Not all. They've damaged our social fabric.

It's laughably ironic that MAGA Americans are pontificating to Europe on what Western civilization is. I recently became a French citizen and not a single MAGA would've been able to field the interview questions about Liberté, Égalité, Fraternité & most of all Laïcité. They can't even pretend to.

It's an integral aspect of white nationalist rhetoric, Ground Zero for which is the US (but there are strong WN movements in Canada, Australia and the UK too, all with identical rhetoric). Contradictory arguments make up the core of the hateful rhetoric they spread. Here are three. 1/2

Another Covid study indicating that vaccination-only immunity > "hybrid" immunity > infection immunity. It doesn't come as any surprise; infection isn't as immunogenic as vaccination. Don't seek Covid for updating antibodies. Vaccinate instead. journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/...
