    Well, yeah - he would. That’s just one more way anybody sane can tell it’s wrong.

    Coming soon to Canada and the rest of western civilization if you’re not careful. You have lots of fascist politicians and corporate leaders too. Just look at how you treat your indigenous people. People who live in glass houses shouldn’t throw stones.

    I mean, if the Americans are going to destroy themselves in a paroxysm of racist insanity, might as well make a little money selling them the tools they’re using to hit themselves in the nuts with?

      Arming and equipping fascists is bad, even if the minority out-group of the day isn’t us.

      “First they came for the Americans, but I was not an American so I sold them the weapons they would later use against me.”

        Yeah, as much as I celebrate a dead American it’s more important that we don’t support them.

          While I don’t celebrate any dead Americans, I would prefer we were arming the ones the fascists are oppressing.

            Why? They clearly aren’t fighting back.

            Americans have an “oppress me daddy” mindset.

                Given you don’t know me or my life, please explain my “privilege” as you understand it.

      Short term pleasure, long term own goal against ourselves too.

      We don’t want the US to go full Gilead. They’re halfway there and look how much damage to us they’re causing already.

      What we want is to nudge that sick nation to better days, if nothing else for our own sake.
