I mean he called Trump transformational which I think anyone with a brain will understand but his supporters will see as a compliment.

There was some very carefully constructed language being used here which I think is a good first step.

It should also be noted that Carney said ‘Never’ five times when Trump said Never say Never but I don’t think Carney was visible on the American broadcast.

I’m happy with expelling Albertans for being secessionists but Canada is keeping the oil.

To put it simply, the prosperity of Europeans and their descendants was paid for through the bloodshed of colonial exploitation. This created an inherently inequal world order.

The world has become more equal post WW2 and the descendants of the greatest beneficiaries of that exploitation are now displeased that they don’t hold the same advantages their ancestors did. That’s why we have to go back. That’s why we have to make _____ great again.

Most PoC can hear these dogwhistles (if you can even call them that) from a mile away.

Doubt it would play out that way in the US. They’re much more likely to take military action when the world cuts them out since making weapons is what made them rich and you can’t keep making weapons without using or selling them.
