Well said, and I wish our northern neighbors well. It can’t be easy sharing a border with a government actively ignoring and dismantling its systems of checks and balances, while its new leader is simultaneously make “jokes” about taking over neutral or allied countries.
What really annoys me is the self-righteousness, self-importance, and proselytizing of our low-information conservative members. Most of the world has either thrived or at least existed fine enough with socialism or politics designed to benefit its average citizen, and ever step of the way these chucklefucks are screaming “communism” and denigrating the very things that would have helped them live better lives. And then they try and force those views on other countries which have better standards of living than we do! It’s infuriating.
