Why would anyone travel to a nation that might arrest you and lock you up for what?? saying something bad about the government one time

[-] [email protected] 76 points 1 month ago

It isn't even lock you up in the US but possibly send you to a slave camp in El Salvador. Why would any Canadian risk that?

Time for what the US always suggests to other countries - time for Regime Change. Until Trump, his family, and his cronies are out of government, boycott the USA.

A slave camp or perhaps an execution camp. No one even knows for sure.

[-] [email protected] 6 points 1 month ago

Why not both? Work them until they die of exhaustion and then the slavers can avoid paying for both food and construction.

Governor Newsom should look to his own affairs first.

I wonder, if we were threatening their sovereignty, openly and repeatedly, would they come visit us? No, they'd be losing their minds. I see California as one of the less outrageous parts of the US, but that doesn't mean I'm going to suddenly give up my integrity and self-respect because they need my business.

If you want Canadians to travel to the US, get rid of trump first. It's not entirely a moral issue anyway, it's genuinely dangerous for foreigners now. Why the hell would I risk my freedom? Because I feel sorry for their economy? No thanks.

As a Californian - fuck Newsom. He's riding to the right far too much, especially lately.

My Canadian friends - the US needs you, probably significantly more than you need us right now. Don't back down against the fascism and tyranny; the fact that we're hurting for your money is how you know you're succeeding. Those of us trying to stand up inside the US can use all the external pressure we can get.

Newsom needs to be replaced by a real progressive. He's trying to shift to the middle at a time when the whole Democratic party just showed what an absolutely horrible tactic it is.

[-] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago

Agreed. Thankfully, he's term limited as governor.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

He went far right becuase all the trump supports popping out in california, this states been lesning right its frustrating to see

[-] [email protected] 34 points 1 month ago

Who wants a free final trip to El Salvador?

[-] [email protected] 25 points 1 month ago

Round trip, right?

[-] [email protected] 28 points 1 month ago

Why would you visit a state that recently voted to keep prison slavery?

[-] [email protected] 24 points 1 month ago

Pretty hilarious coming from the US governor that's been courting US right wingers on his podcast...

[-] [email protected] 21 points 1 month ago

I get why the gov wants us to come visit. But it's incredibly tone-deaf not to know why it's not happening.

Mr Newsom must know why that's not happening. He's not an idiot.

Maybe Hawaii will secede first, and I can take my mom to hanuama bay one last time while she can still travel. I hate that it's the most likely scenario that ends with my mom honouring my uncle - it was his favourite place on the planet - but it's more likely the USA will ditch the U than it will remember the S.

Fuck you murica! You don't need us!

[-] [email protected] 15 points 1 month ago

Oh, they do, it’s just the sane people haven’t figured out how to punch the assholes’ faces in.

[-] [email protected] 16 points 1 month ago

you gotta leave the us first california

[-] [email protected] 15 points 1 month ago

Fuck Trumps America!

[-] [email protected] 14 points 1 month ago

Newsom is a hell of a joker, or a complete idiot. Get fucked, America.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

He's nether, but we have two choices, try and don't try. What he needs us CA national guard promising no feds will put hands on travelers.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago

Except he can't cause you still cross the boarder such means TSA can do get you.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

Even if he could guarantee complete safety, there's no way in hell I'm stepping into the land of the Christo-fascists, or giving their economy my money.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

No, I agree with you there. Any pain you can cause to the US right now is deeply justified.

[-] [email protected] -4 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

but we have two choices

Didn't the Liberal party run and win on promising electoral reform?

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

Yep, I voted Liberal just for that, then Justin walked away from that promise without even trying and lost my vote in the subsequent elections.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

Man, The two choices wasn't about voting, it was about the current CA gov choosing to fight against Trump's gov or not fight.

No. California likes those Canadians spending their sweet sweet dollars in the US. When California leaves the US, then we’ll talk. My boycott of the US lasts a lifetime or longer.
