From what I read online and see in the news here, Canada seems to have a "ow yeah, bring it on, we'll kick your ass" mentality (might sound cooler than I intended but hey, maybe it really is like that!)

there is no force that could stop us
... yet! I have some hope in the EU becoming stronger together and try to do something against it. I don't know what, but something...
They just made my gender illegal to put on a passport
So TECHNICALLY they can't do you harm either... No passport no way of punishing you (I know they can, but I'm just trying to lighten the mood a little bit. Humor as coping mechanism and all that)
I really believe this hole situation is a big opportunity to strengthen our ties within the EU and create a strong bond. And I hope so as well... The German elections this Sunday will be important
Ooof I can imagine. Canada or Mexico?
You get used to it when you live here, trust me. Only once a week, as is tradition!
There's a society here, yes! Be my guest!
A large portion of Americans only have 2 brain cells and they’re both busy fighting for 3rd place
I'll steal this one. That's a marvelous quote
This is hell. This is hell. Never, ever, ever let it happen in Belgium. For the love of any god that gives enough of a fuck to listen, care about politics. Care about politics before they decide they don’t care about you.
I try! It's a hard battle, sometimes, because even here right-wing nutjobs are getting more and more normalised. We can only hope that they see the situation in the US and realise they don't want this kind of shitshow. On the other hand... even here some of those nutjobs are celebrating Donny and Elmo. That's very scary.
Has it all been futile? Have I wasted ten years fighting the same fascists my grandfather fought in WW2?
It's not! I really believe it hasn't been futile! Keep on fighting! I know it's very demanding, but never underestimate the power of the masses. I support you, even if I can only raise my voice online. And here in Belgium, I'm fighting for sure to evade the same situation.
Can I offer you our political system with 6 governments?
Move to Belgium! We have lots of quality beers and delicious fries!
This is the most positive take I've read on this topic so far. I hope it's true and it's all more circus than it seems, but it's scary tho
