The Canadian government has insisted that information on domestic goods is readily available to all trading partners, even including nations that recently elected a felony-convicted game show host to be their head of state. Instead, the United States has decided to employ a rarely-chosen trade tactic that international economists refer to as the “fuck around and find out” model.

Those who didn't vote don't matters. I don't know why we're supposed to acknowledge their existence in these discussions. In every way that actually matters, Americans chose this.

Soooo…. all of Germany chose Hitler? Of course they didn’t.

I’m an American. I did not chose trump. Let’s stop with the blanket statements.

The statement "Americans chose this" does not mean or imply that all Americans chose this but congrats on being trivially right in a pedantic and irrelevant way. Most voters chose this, and that is the only thing that matters .

I’m an American. I did not chose trump. Let’s stop with the blanket statements.

Yeah I'll definitely keep your delicate feelings at the forefront of my mind as your leaders madness starts destroying my country next week.

Right. And you be sure to keep blaming those that voted for the one person that had the chance to stop him while you’re at it because that’ll sure help a lot towards my keeping your delicate feelings in mind while he’s destroying your country next week.

I tried to stop this shit. I did the right thing. Don’t bring this shit to my doorstep.

With reading comprehension that poor no wonder Trump is loved there. No one's blaming you.

...You do, of course, know Hitler didn't actually win, right?

[-] Rhoeri@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago

You do of course, understand that’s not what I asked, right?

Funny, you don't have a problem using blanket statements about who elected Trump when discussing people who don't like the Democrats (regardless of how those people actually voted ), but you get upset at blanket statements that put the blame on all Americans. Isn't that interesting?

[-] Rhoeri@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago

Blanket statements that put the blame on Americans that voted against trump? Yeah… I have a huge problem with that.

We actually tried to stop this.
