On Canadians booing the US anthem at sports events.

The Globe & Mail couldn’t have put it any better.

No blame here

I’m totally down with booing our anthem, but could have put it better. Like everything after the first paragraph.

Millions of us would stop this lunacy if we could. We lack the means to do so. Millions of us do not view Canadians as dippy syrup drinkers. Far from it.

d0m1nat0r81.bsky.social•21 days ago

You can stop this lunacy, you just would rather someone else do it. And so would I.

manuelveth.bsky.social•21 days ago

But as the article says, we Canadians are beyond seeing that distinction

spartanvalor.bsky.social•21 days ago

Then that is a fault, not a quality

d0m1nat0r81.bsky.social•21 days ago

It's not Canadians' job to make that distinction. Our government represents us all.

spartanvalor.bsky.social•20 days ago

Exactly the point. Regardless of who you support, one governing body rules them all. Doesn’t mean you push away the helping hand amongst that cohort.

d0m1nat0r81.bsky.social•20 days ago

How are the anti-Trumpers helping Canadians?

manuelveth.bsky.social•21 days ago

We are being bullied. I am sorry we are hurting your feelings.

spartanvalor.bsky.social•21 days ago

You can attack the innocent bystander if you so choose, but that doesn’t make you any different than the people you despise.

manuelveth.bsky.social•21 days ago

I think you are looking for excuses for why you shouldn't feel guilty. I have news for you: You should. If that isn't enough to wake you up and make you do something, then the guilty feeling is justified. Now stop coming after me. I won't feel sorry for you and your perceived hurt feelings.

About half of the United States is being bullied too.

manuelveth.bsky.social•21 days ago

I am sorry. But that’s not our problem nor do we have the energy to make that distinction while we fight for economic survival because of actions caused by your country. So again sorry for the lack of sympathy

darcytisgreat.bsky.social•21 days ago

They need to do something then.

rorykazan.bsky.social•21 days ago

Yes. But you should be able to. I expect to suffer consequences for the madness of our current government. I don’t expect to be blamed for it.

manuelveth.bsky.social•21 days ago

Should yes. But maybe we are also at a point in which we the bullied are beyond sympathy

rorykazan.bsky.social•21 days ago

I don’t want sympathy, feelings aren’t hurt, I’m furious about what my govt is doing, I’m enraged every hour of every day at my fellow citizens who empowered this government. What I don’t want is to be assumed to be in cahoots with those people, and to be assumed so by people I am sure know better.

manuelveth.bsky.social•21 days ago

Sorry but Canadians don’t care about distinguishing at this point. We are to busy fighting for economic survival here because of actions caused by your country.
