Yo isn’t it a bit ironic that the side who have repeatedly claimed comedy is banned, illegal, impossible, etc, are the ones responsible for, fuck my life, you know, cancelling fucking comedy?

(Every accusation is an admission)

Everything they've ever complained about, they commit 10x harder... and they only ever complain about anything when their opponent does it. Their own team is off limits, and infinitely infallible.

Conservatism isn't politics. It's the mental illness of religion in a political trench coat.

I definitely read "N.B" as "nonbinary" initially, and was getting annoyed with the author of the article for repeatedly using "he" to refer to the comedian, and then I realized: "Oh. New Brunswick. I'm dumb as hell."

And yet, consider that some dumbass US border agent thinking the same thing and disappearing Mullinger into a gulag because of it isn't the absurdity it should be.

Neo Barcelonan.

Rightfully so.

I don't blame him at all. ICE is out of control.

Every single bad thing that was predicted was going to happen when DHS was created, has happened or is happening.

The podcast Well There's Your Problem is planning live shows, which means November Kelly has to travel to the USA. Not only is she trans, she is very anti-conservative. I'm worried about what kind of reception she'll get when she lands.

As long as she isn’t imprisoned in El Salvador it’s a success I guess

She is an idiot if she travels to the US, and I say that with love. I don't care why, there is no reason to put oneself in danger heading to the states especially with a target that big on ones back.

Same for some Aussies

Alice Fraser is an Australian comedian who was meant to travel to the US to promote her new book but has cancelled her plans following advice from her lawyer

I would love to say they are being over dramatic, but it's an honest and serious concern and that should have everyone on high alert.

Don't forget our own right wing government was teamed up and delivered the same messages as the Americans until Trump attacked us.

Not all right wingers are seperatists but all seperatists are certainly right wing, so don't even give them an inch until they decide to remove the extreme elements from their party. PPC is a good thing, and those with extreme believes need to get behind them, otherwise there is just too many crazy ideas to even consider supporting Conservatives

Every single Canadian needs to not step foot in the US for any reason. It is not safe for any of us and there is a good chance they will find a way to imprison you or execute you for political gain in the economic war we have found ourselves in.

Don't be a dumb dumb and stay out of the US friends.
