The second most interested demographic is Canada's conservative wannabes that wish we could be more conservative too - has anyone ever seen a Canadian lefty wonder why we can't be more like Democrats? The rest is spread around various wonks usually economic or diplomatic and whose job it is to keep an eye on the implications of living next door to the most powerful country on the planet - especially when its ruler is as unstable as North Korea's. Comparing Trump to Kim Jong Un is obvious Trump Derangement Syndrome. Comparing politicians you don't like and who clearly aren't dictators, to dictators, is what those who have no argument do.

godzilla Posted February 7, 2020 Report Posted February 7, 2020 here is brainwashed... when you call yourself a "conservative" but aren't able to explain what that means exactly. when you hate "liberals" but aren't able to describe what those values are while in fact extolling the "liberal democracy" that you live in. calling people socialists and complaining that the government doesn't keep up roads or offer good enough public education. even worse, when any criticism at all of the political personality cult that you are a member of means that those who are thinking critically must be labeled one of the dog whistle names whose meaning you're not sure about.

It's not just Conservatives...it is lefty progressives too, volunteering in U.S. election campaigns and carrying water for American candidates. Something is off about that....Mexico does not have such an invested neurosis. In 2008, 15% of polled Canadians would give up their vote in Canada just to be able to vote for Obama. Spectacle ? Oh, you mean that the Americans fill a gaping void back home ? OK.... Edited February 7, 2020 by bush_cheney2004 1 Quote Economics trumps Virtue.

If you think America is going to shit because Trump got elected, you either weren't paying attention before, and/or you are just easily triggered by who the president is if you don't like them.

You confuse average Americans for these people all the time. Everyone to the right of Fidel Castro is a neo-nazi to you. Any American who disagrees with you is written off as a brainwashed racist, sexist, homophobe, etc. Edited February 7, 2020 by Yzermandius19 Quote

You lump everyone who disagrees with you into a basket of deplorables, it's your go to argument tactic when you can't win an argument on the merits but want to convince yourself that you are right anyway.

Guest ProudConservative Posted February 7, 2020 Report Posted February 7, 2020 (edited) It's funny how I started this threat by taking a swipe at the democrats, but still end up having to defend myself againd Trump Derangement Syndrome.
