This is so fucking unreal. But This is real. A fucking news anchor people listen to said this shit. Holy fuck.

Reposted from Dr Farbod

Fox News anchor, Jesse Watters finds it “personally offensive” that Canadians refuse to be annexed by the US: “That’s what everyone in the world wants—American citizenship.”

American Imperialism is on full show.

thatcdngingerguy.bsky.social•72 days ago

I am one Canadian that can say I do not.

warchiefpeebs.bsky.social•72 days ago

There are days I think I may be off my rocker when I fear war.

And then there are moments like this, the Overton window is so far right where this is acceptable to discuss and media is saying this to Canada's elected officials (even if it is Doug Ford)

mklamonsterland.bsky.social•67 days ago

Fox news has pretty much always been explicitly fascist propaganda as long as it's been around tbh, it's just nowadays more people are buying into it probably because of external things like youtube promoting it

x92.bsky.social•72 days ago

Reminder that Jesse Williams would leak tires out the car of the co-worker he was stalking as an excuse to drive her home.

Of course a predator would talk like this.

demipersephone.bsky.social•71 days ago

She was 26 when he let air out of her tires so she would have to ask him for a ride home. He was 40 🤮 His now ex wife divorced him when she found out. He ended up marrying that co worker in December 2019. 9 months after his wife divorced him in March 2019. He's a predator and an adulterer.

rianacollie.bsky.social•72 days ago

The fact that anyone thinks Fox is news is where all this hell started. Nothing is too low for them.

lyfe-is-bats.bsky.social•72 days ago

S E R I O U S L Y. They’ll spout whatever Trump wants them to.

donorak.bsky.social•72 days ago

Right now I question if I want to be associated with america right now. Something that is constantly on my mind is is this really who I want representing the American people? Constantly the answer is no.

oceanplume.bsky.social•72 days ago

This is nuts. "Everyone wants an American citizenship." I'm Canadian, hell no! My boyfriend who is American doesn't even want to be there anymore!

nauth.bsky.social•72 days ago

It hurts the brain so much!

atkelar.bsky.social•72 days ago

He is a propaganda speaker, nothing more. I kinda predicted this stuff when people made "alternate facts" acceptable 🤬 on that note: people who watch fox news only want confirmation anyhow. The "yeah, say it like it is" network in a nutshell.

zephyfoxy.art•72 days ago

Fox News needs to change their name to Trump news because they don't even hide the fact all they do anymore is push his bullshit agenda.

yukarihoshina.bsky.social•72 days ago

It’s a Fox News anchor for starters, but uhhh yeah. Were cooked til further notice at this point. 😩

And any nationals seeing this, please know that there is a massive amount of hate and disgust to our government/news for this shit. We don’t support this kind of talk to other nations.

usagi-zakura.bsky.social•72 days ago

If this guy and his Orange Overlord loves Canadians so much why don't they just let Canada Annex the US? If you say no that means you hate Canadians, you don't hate Canadians do you?

usagi-zakura.bsky.social•72 days ago

Then again this is from the same news channel that said my country of Norway isn't a democracy because our cops don't carry guns... Apparently you can't be a democracy without the fear of a cop just shooting you because he mistook your wallet for a firearm...

aero-owl.bsky.social•72 days ago

The Americans want to subjugate us and take our homes, land, and resources. I am heavily armed and will not go down without a fight. I will take you all to hell with me.

aslimb6gd.bsky.social•72 days ago

Yeah, I'll keep my tax-funded healthcare system, gun-control laws, and basic human rights.

samcephalopod.bsky.social•72 days ago

Everyone in the world hates us overall because of dumbasses like this. I'm not even mad about it.

demipersephone.bsky.social•71 days ago

Jesse Waters is a fucking groomer creep. Look up how he met his current wife. He's disgusting.

stasnova.bsky.social•71 days ago

> That’s what everyone in the world wants—American citizenship

I used to want one. But then Trump usurped America.

Honestly I deeply and sincerely hope that America survives that, because it's been my favorite country forever now.

fazgaming.bsky.social•70 days ago

As a Canadaian i fine everything that person said offencive (sorry cant spell right due to cracked phone) but Canada will never be the 51st state so Trump is gonna have to get over it.

If you don't kiss the fat lumpy ass you're not an American.

maymay47.bsky.social•71 days ago

"Everyone in the world wants an american citizenship." No dipshit people want to come here to escape the threat of literally being raped and murdered in the streets of their home country, which America is only slightly better at preventing from happening.

shesuscrusty.bsky.social•72 days ago

I screamed from the rooftops that Canada would be our Austria if not our Poland. They're disappearing american citizens and marching further on their path of genocide towards trans folks. I cannot bring myself to not act when I know that someone I'm close to could get violently gulaged.

brushofchaos.bsky.social•72 days ago

Seeing what's going on in the US, I'm pretty sure nobody in the world wants to be a US citizen.

huluandebayman.bsky.social•72 days ago

It's more of a greater shame to be a US citizen than it is to be any other citizen.

gregoriolopez.bsky.social•30 days ago

my Russian friend likes Russian culture but my Russian friend dislikes the government

thegreatlucario.bsky.social•72 days ago

The only way I’m dropping my Canadian citizenship is for someone to pry it out if my cold dead bloody hands. I’d rather be dead and Canadian, than alive and american cuz that’s no life worth living

jakobkennedyfrost.bsky.social•72 days ago

Same. I'd rather live and die as a Canadian rather than live and dies as an American. If the US tries to illegally invade Canada, I'm armed and always read and willing to help push them back to their own country. Canada will NEVER beocme a tyranny. Canada will NEVER allow Nazism. Canada isn't evil.

shreddtone.bsky.social•72 days ago

WHAT?!

codyyoshida.bsky.social•72 days ago

As someone who lives here in Canada... I find it offensive that the US REALLY thinks we want to be part of them. They need to take the hint and leave us alone already

codyyoshida.bsky.social•72 days ago

The fact that THIS reporter really thinks that any other country wants to be part of the US either is completely delusional

gregoriolopez.bsky.social•30 days ago

Jesse waters mom doesn’t like Jesse . American presidents knew this was going to happen in the future

seaofcaffeine.bsky.social•72 days ago

Why the fuck would we willingly give up a higher standard of living? Universal healthcare, better safety for kids at school, etc. The sheer arrogance of a lot of MAGA Americans is beyond infuriating to me. They really believe everyone wants to be like them. 😭😭

roland74.bsky.social•72 days ago

Talk about an ego! I wonder how he can even get that big head of his through doors!

paragon00.bsky.social•72 days ago

It deforms. It can do this because it’s filled entirely with hot air.

pirazel.bsky.social•72 days ago

The crazy thing is that he said this because he thinks that's what his audience wants to hear.
Tells you a lot how he sees his fellow Americans

Oh wow, a Fox News host and trump supporter not taking ‘no’ for an answer? It’s almost like that’s a normal thing for him 🤢🤮

thedreadpageant.bsky.social•72 days ago

You can't even parody this anymore. This is a real, functional human who is saying this. Just stop and think about it, this person believes it's offensive a sovereign nation does not want to be subject to an armed takeover. How do you even respond to this ?

bruceleblanc.bsky.social•72 days ago

amonbrouwer.bsky.social•72 days ago

No Canadian wants to be American, no offense to you or any others but we up in Canada dont want to spend thousands to millions on health care that we already get for free

thecin3phile.bsky.social•72 days ago

How about literally any good country invading the US?
How would they like that?

firebreath.bsky.social•72 days ago

As a French-Canadian, I find it offensive that this anchor would find it offensive that I don't want to be part of their nation.
And the fact that he thinks everyone wants to be American...

May he be treated by healthcare insurance companies the same way the non-rich US citizen is in the future.

tuathaniel.bsky.social•72 days ago

As a Norwegian, there are a LOT of countries I'd rather be a citizen of before the US. I wouldn't become American even if they tried to pay me to do so.

peacenik909.bsky.social•72 days ago

Calling Jessie Waters a "news anchor" feels too generous IMO. Waters makes Vox look like Walter Cronkite by comparison. At least Vox has conviction, Waters doesn't believe in anything.

Frankly, Trump is a globalist, and the Democrats are ultra-globalists. I mean, they seek to subjugate the world more actively than Trump, or rather, not the Democrats themselves, but their owners. About the same as Musk.
