Hi, failed expat here. Tried to move to Guelph legally in 2023-24 because Nazification of the USA was incredibly obvious to anyone who reads. Canadians changed their laws to be racist to Indians and excluded me, even though I am a white masters degree holder who had professional connections in the region.
When I die fighting ICE outside of some middle school because I caught them trying to kidnap people at my work, know that I would have lived in peace. I literally just wanted to eat delicious cheesecake in Guelph with my hot wife (who doesn't have full rights in the fucking USA).
*edit: I want the people who are downvoting this to explain to me which part exactly they disagree with, because I think the implication is pretty disgusting generally.
What a weird comment.
Why don't you trip up some stairs.
Destiny is calling. Don't question the universe.
Thanks I am aware
Honestly, north america is not the place to be. Canada was all ready to elect trump north and the guy we got is still a right wing banker. The only thing you'll miss by not moving to Guelph is the awesome craft beer.
Hi friend, and I mean that sincerely, I'm truly sorry that you weren't able to get into Canada. And I hear you about the attitudes towards Indians... It's abhorrent and a product of the anti-immigrant rhetoric that the right wing has imported from the US.
One of my best friends immigrated from India a couple of decades ago. He married a childhood friend and they slowly built a life together, now own 60 acres and have two kids. Hearing his story made me proud of this country, and I believe we are hurting ourselves by letting partisan reactionaries set the message on immigration. My family on my mother's side immigrated from Eastern Europe after WW2. I'm first generation, so I understand what immigrant families go though, and especially the work ethic that the majority of them embody.
I hope you do not give up, and please, please stay safe. I react strongly to the increasing American threat, but it's easy to forget there are people like you who never wanted any of this. I hope you can join us soon.
Good for your friend and your parents. Lots of 1st generation people could have helped us and didn't.
Anyway, don't wish for my safety. Do not let these fascists have an inch in Canada. Not a bleeding inch.
How could first generation people have helped you?
I'm writing about specific people in a specific situation so I'd rather not go into a ton of detail but there were housing and work situations where any cooperation would have made all the difference for us.
Why do you guys blame your own right wing politicians on the US? You voted them in, right?
Because frankly the ideology of our current crop of right wing loons is a carbon copy of the US, and the US funds our right wing think tanks and NGOs.
In short they use the same tactics of dishonesty, fear and scapegoating to manipulate the public and create the same division and mistrust of government. We can see where it leads.
By the way we didn't vote the right wing into power, we dodged a bullet.
Elections in USA are fake dude, we don't have primaries or anything anymore.
I'm genuinely sorry you couldn't come up here.
If you do please live stream it.
You want me to live stream getting killed by ICE kidnappers. Thanks. 👍
In all seriousness, I hope you don’t proceed. I can totally understand the anger and hate, but you would literally waste your life: they will paint you as a leftist radical and just use your attack as an excuse to arrest whoever protests against ICE, claiming they’re the reason you did what you think about doing.
I'm not fucking attacking anyone, don't you read? I'm a teacher and they raid schools now. We have active shooter and kidnapper protocols at schools. I'm just preparing to go to work you fucking psycho!
That's probably the biggest misunderstanding I had on Internet, ever!😅
See? This is what I was talking about. They are attacking the kids and some of us actually do our jobs trying to defend them.
