Seriously. I have too many American friends who are confused when I tell them I have and will have no interest in going down to America, even if it's just to visit them, for the foreseeable future and they wonder why.

Could it be because your country was having open public discourse on the merits of annexing us? Or maybe that I don't want to get thrown into an ICE concentration camp for no reason?

Interesting that they would be confused at all. I have an interest, because Canada is cool, but I won't be visiting anytime soon because I know we are the worst and nobody is going to want us there. I also don't want to deal with assholes at the border, even though I'm a US citizen they have carte blanche to do anything they are in the mood for.

Honestly, we're generally fine with individual Americans that are respectful. Not many of us, if any at all, will be rude towards you unless you're an openly hateful Trump supporter.

I'm finding all Americans distasteful these days. They have a taint these days.

I certainly don’t judge Americans who come here unless they’re acting MAGAish (wearing the hat, American flag clothes, etc).

My inlaws are dual and living in the US. Very surprised and confused why I was still upset about it.
