How can anyone look at the complete and utter shitshow down south and think “yeah, I wanna be part of that”? The US is in declime by just about any accepted metric, assuming you can ignore all the blatant human rights abuses being conducted out in public long enough to even look at metrics right now.
There should be no reasonable argument for a Canadian to want to get annexed other than sheer, unadulterated, racism, transphobia, or fascism.
And if you support any of those things, I think you’re the one who should get annexed personally by being relocated to the down south trash heap.
A world leading housing bubble, and wages lower than the poorest US state, I assume. As bad as the US is they didn’t have the second worst per capita GDP growth in the OECD while they imported a massive number of UN wage slaves to depress salaries and hide falling GDP during a housing crisis.
These selfish quislings are far too comfortable with the idea of taking away the rights of others.
“South of the border, Americans have maintained their right to bear arms, have found recourse in the courts for the COVID violations against business and churches, and are much more encouraging of the free market. Meanwhile, our homeland is being flooded with immigrants.”
Does this man only speak in dog whistles?
His dog whistles are as subtle as a foghorn
“Before labelling me a traitor,” he writes in his “Pastor’s Blog,” be assured that “I am a patriotic Canadian, loyal to Canada’s historic constitutional order, but I am also awake to the fact that that order has been largely destroyed.”
So in other words you hate change and would much prefer if we all reverted back to the good ol’ days when men were men and women obeyed, right? Right?
It is textbook fascist rhetoric. “Our country has been destroyed. We must retvrn to our time of glory.”
These fuckers can fucking leave if the wanna be part of hazing America so bad.
Reaume, whose divinity degree comes from the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Louisville, Kentucky, offers his flock an autocratic hero to match his politics. “If we appealed to Donald Trump to restore our social and constitutional order by annexing Canada, we would not be too far out of line with our own constitutional heritage.”
But what about the problem that Canada is further “left” than the United States? “Only those former Canadians and their offspring who clearly demonstrate loyalty to American ideals would be permitted to vote,” writes Reaume. As for the others? No mention. Perhaps they could be deported to Salvadoran prisons?
Damn! We only have our Prime Minister. They have the father, the son and the holy ghost. Not fair Jesus! Sorry it’s not Jesus’ fault. I got carried away. It’s all those fake Christians who think that Jesus somehow transitioned into a golden calf.
It’s worse than a simple joke to make fun of though, unfortunately. Their leaders just go ahead and announce themselves as literal “apostles.” And they mean it, that’s not in a figurative sense. They’re like the answer to a question no one asked about what it would be like if instead of one charismatic cult leader, you had a collection of megalomaniacs who want to take over the world. It should be a designated terrorist group.
It really begs the issue as to whether China has the right idea about religious faith groups. All religions are welcome in China, as long as they do not infringe on the right of the people to preserve the dominant Chinese cultural values, nor threaten the ability of the people themselves to determine their governance. The Catholic church (not the Roman Catholic Empire-Church) is welcome in China, as long as all of the church ‘leaders’ (bishops and such) are loyal to China and the Chinese people, not a foreign ‘pope’ that has no connection to the thousands of years old cultural traditions of China.
This group clearly wants authoritarian fascist control over all people, disguised as some authority given by a ‘supreme beyond-human power’ or ‘supreme divinity’. The Divine Right of Kings. There is absolutely no difference between what this group wants and the government in Iran. Only the name of the ‘religion’ is changed. The goal is the same.
