Oh, Canada!!! 🇨🇦 🇨🇦 🇨🇦 🇨🇦 25% of Canadians now believe the US is an "enemy of the state." Thanks, lardass. 😡😡😡😡 www.nationalobserver.com/2025/02/20/n...

More than a quarter of now Canadians view the United States as an 'enemy' country: poll
The poll comes as U.S. President Donald Trump threatens to impose economically devastating tariffs on Canada and has repeatedly pushed the idea that Canada should become a U.S. state.

I see three distinct phases. Pre-Fox, when opinion was diverse but actual facts were indisputable. Fox/Trump, where objective truth was subjected to the false equivalence of ‘alternative facts’ (ie lies). And now, where media & tech platform owners collude with him to drown out the truth altogether.
