One thing i can and do respect about indians is that they will never be pushy with their religions. Sure you'll find some "bad apples" but rare.
Then there are other countries, that are much more pushy with their religions. I have no respect for that.
So there might be a lot of them, but they don't ruin it as per say. As long as they don't shit on the beach and use garbage cans and not sidewalks.
I won't go to india an impose my belief or way of living. And i don't think they do that in canada either. But others do it.
Sadly, by association of the religion, some will see them as the same people.
Anyways we're in 2026, religions are stone age laws to scare people. Now we have actual laws that are based on being a decent person, not the winner or the best, or the only right way. No need for some boogeyman in the sky to scare you, 10 years in prison should be enough to make you behave like a decent human. Even 1 month is enough for me to not be some idiot.
We had horses, now we have cars.
We had gods, now we have laws.
Simple evolution and progress. Well some countries didn't get that update apparently.
And noooo, if i say one bad word about an ideology, not a race (yaaawn, human race, all the same) i will be hunted down.
That should tell you everything about the situation.
You don't like my ideas? Ok, you do you.
I don't like your ideas? Throw me off a roof? I'm sorry what?
Should all be banned worldwide. Believe what you want, don't impose your ignorance on others. Especially not with force or threats.
Extended philosophical argument about religious tolerance, cultural respect, and behavioral standards framed through ethical principles rather than policy critique.

At least immigrants these dayscome without killing locals like before. If something bad happens then we have to first look what did we do to ourselves to come to this point.

I find it hilarious that the USA has a massive Fentanyl problem. Not Mexico, Canada, or Europe. USA only problem. Yet the solution needs to come from everybody else, except the USA

I still can’t for the life of me understand why we went through a version of this once already and somebody here still keeps wanting more. Why? Why keep aligning with a “President” who seems hellbent on revenge and throwing us all overboard unless you’re at least a millionaire? The kinds of people placed in control right now are the very ones we all have been and should be fighting against still! Rich people have no interest in the issues and problems facing anybody with a net value of less than $1,000,000. We are just pawns for them to use in their pursuit of further wealth!
Appeals to justice and fairness while expressing concern about wealthy elites exploiting ordinary citizens for personal gain.

Trump is a bully and thinks like a child without thinking of the consequences. He’s been getting his way for years and running around bullying others. I really hope Canada Mexico whoever trump wants to bully stand on business and does the same. Unfortunately we Americans will be caught in the crossfire but it has to be done.
Characterizes Trump as morally wrong (bully, childish) and appeals to others to stand firm on principle despite personal costs.

In a sense, this tariff war is a sign of humility. We as society consume too much, with things we don't need, but waste. Feed the hungry and house the homeless

Trudeau lies! Trump is by no means 'smart' in any way whatsoever. I'd say he's as dumb as a rock, but I'd be insulting some of my igneous friends.

I'm an American and I'm beyond disgusted that the convicted felon adjudicated rapist Dictator worshipper Dictator wannabe was allowed to run for any political office especially President. I believe Musk's vote counting system corrupted the election. I have never and never will vote for Trump and his evil co conspirators. Now some of the MAGA voters are regretting their votes, well they chose to believe the cons lies over the easily verifiable facts especially Project 2025 that again lied on national TV that he knew nothing about Project 2025 yet his name is on hundreds of pages in project 2025 documents. Trump and his goons belong in prison.\nI support and love Canada and Ukraine. Devastating that the real elected President Kamala Harris was robbed of that because of manipulation and foreign interference. Americans are suffering and the suffering will get worse except for the top wealthiest.\nThank you Prime Minister for standing up to the biggest deranged bully on Earth and all the countries that are supporting Canada.\nIt disturbs me beyond words, I have generations in my family that have served in our military, ,my father served in WWII and Korea he fought at the Battle of the Bulge and liberated Buchenvald concentration camp the atrocities he witnessed affected him for the rest of his life, and here we have a 5 time draft dodger whose rich daddy paid a Dr to falsify deferment paperwork for phoney bone spurs, he's a coward and a bully
Extended personal narrative combined with strong moral arguments about Trump's unfitness, corruption, and cowardice, with explicit support for Canada and Ukraine.

USA is no longer aligned with democratic nations, it is with the autocrats. It's the dawn of a new world order. Glad Trudeau spoke to Donald in the way he did. To be clear. This is how a narcissist acts. He does not respect those who are closest to him - he does not care about allies and connection, he sees these folks (and nations) as weak - he is about control and domination. Narcs do this in their personal lives. And if you are not weak and don't bend to his will, they will unleash their actions to control - and if they have the power (and the prez is the most powerful person in the world) they will have all the power at this disposal and will not stop until they achieve their aim, destruction be damned. And that is why it was so dangerous to let Dump go without accountability. His deluded self thinks he's an unmitigated genius and he's the top of the food chain. For him it's blaring green lights all the way in his polluted mind. Dump 2.0 is unchecked now, so he is unleashing the narcissism disease upon the world.
Extended critique framing Trump as a narcissist threatening democratic values and global stability, with moral concerns about accountability and power.
