🏳️🌈🖖🏽This message hits hard.
Joel Klebanoff 🇨🇦@georgetakei Like it says in our (I’m Canadian) national anthem, O Canada, “the True North, strong and free.”
🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
Bill Zaumen@JoelKlebanoff @georgetakei A lot of us got to see that broadcast in the U.S.: so far our dictatorship is an incompetent one, although it is doing a lot of damage. The best outcome would be for Trump to have to fly the coop on his Battleship Potrumpkin, without ever setting foot on land again due to the risk of being arrested. Sort of like The Flying Dutchman (with no Senta to redeem him).
The Flying Dutchman • (Der Fliegende Holländer) • Livermore Valley Opera
tend2wobble@tend2wobble @JoelKlebanoff @georgetakei Funny! BTW, there was a garbage scow from New York City that tried to unload its "payload" in Belize and points in between, and everyone refused to take it. A wise guy I knew referred to it as The Flying Dutchman Garbage Scow as it could not find a port that would take it in.
If only Trump suffers a similar fate.
LukefromDC@bzdev @JoelKlebanoff @georgetakei We may be able to win this conflict by doing exactly what we are doing now.
ICE is losing almost every battle they have to fight, while the pill networks have effectively castrated the anti-abortion laws.
ChookMother 🇦🇺🦘@JoelKlebanoff @georgetakei You're lucky to have an inspiring anthem. Ours says "Our land is girt by sea" or as some prefer, "Our land is dirt by sea".
Albert Kinng@anne_twain @JoelKlebanoff @georgetakei I always thought that it was a letter to a guy named Jose. “Jose can’t you see...”
LOL! I think that's called a 'mondegreen' ( not sure of spelling ).
Bill Witte@georgetakei Unfortunately true. Thank you Canada 🇨🇦
xs4me2Good clarification of things happening (…).

icastico@georgetakei It’s also not accurate as to what happened with 60 minutes.

@georgetakei the most "free" country in the world... The whole world should envy them their "freedom".
Yet somehow, even the most oppressive European countries still have more freedom than the US...
Zoidberg For President@georgetakei Canada is one tick away from "dictatorship", and that's called "modern democracy".
Starraven@ZoidbergForPresident @georgetakei
Not even remotely. For one thing, we do not directly elect our Prime Minister. We also do not have a compromised Supreme Court, and generally find our Conservative party lacking in policy substance (in addition to being horrible bigots).
BuckRogers1965It was just smuggled back into the good 'ole USA.

pdiff1@georgetakei Love our Canadian and European friends, but no need to get complacent or cocky. You both have your own homegrown nazis and need to watch your backs. Never think it won’t happen to you and yours. This is a global problem, not just American.
@pdiff1 @georgetakei This in fact is the problem with fleeing the US to escape Nazism. Canada has some vicious racists who especially have First Nations folks but probably hate everybody but themselves. Britain has the Patriotic Alternative, Homeland Party and similar fascist septic tanks. Germany has AfD in spite of some of the world's strictest anti-Nazi laws. France has Le Pen etc.
You can flee from the front, but the front may follow you wherever you run. Better to stand and fight if at all possible
@georgetakei you think it has been hard… 3 more years of this are coming. Buckle up.
Anita Bischoff@georgetakei I don't know where this post originated. I can't find it on Mastodon. There is an identical account on Bluesky, but this particular post is not from Bluesky. I also checked X and couldn't find the account. When posting something like this, why not credit the forum it was originally posted on?
myles@NickBarkleyForever looks like threads
@feedtheplants Thanks....and yes....I found the account on Threads but the post has since been deleted because the it riled up a bunch of crazies who responded with threats.😞
ottawasteph 🕊️@georgetakei And our king doesn't meddle in our shit either.

It should (hit hard). US is well on the way to follow in Russia's footsteps with censorship. Trump had long talks with Putin on how to become the 2nd richest man in the world (Putin is #1) all under the guise of talking peace in Ukraine.

Jack Yan (甄爵恩)@georgetakei At least yʼall still have current affairsʼ programmes! Ours have all been cancelled under our government.
Nömenlōony@georgetakei see also UK and BBC. Hands off, Trump, you prick.
Craig@georgetakei A bunch of CBS staff knew which version Global was going to air in Canada. Curious that none of them, apparently, mentioned that to Weiss after the decision to censor it in the USA?
A Cidade BrancaEles sempre viveram numa ditadura com cumplicidade das cadeias noticiosas. O problema é que, agora, as cadeias noticiosas foram afastadas no novo regime ditatorial.
