Just because a president is dumbo, and 30% of voters elected him along with his team, doesn't mean you should hate an entire country for it. This is the problem with people today—you don't realize that hatred starts from small things. Then one day, you wake up wondering, why do they hate us back? and suddenly, there's a war. Hate me or disagree with me all you want, but today it's this guy, tomorrow it will be another, and so on. This is how hatred toward an entire nation grows—because of a single person who comes to power. One leader's actions shouldn't define an entire people. (1)

There are a lot jokes… but in reality this post is sad.The orange frick, his administration and the policies they are enacting has made an average citizen in arguably our closest ally nation feel it necessary to give us the finger.Instead of "making America great again," these pieces of shit are destroying our standing on the world stage (which was already shaky to begin with).

OP

Canadian here. Not sure if this is PreperIntel worthy but just reporting something I've honestly never seen in my life. Canadians woke up today feeling super patriotic. And super pissed. Not that we aren't usually patriotic but we aren't a bunch of flag wavers. It's more a quiet patriotism we keep to ourselves. And we are generally a polite and reserved bunch in general.

Not today. Holy... the mood in Canada is ... PISSED.

Most of the anger is aimed at your current head of state but also at your country as a whole. Not so much individual Americans. You will be perfectly safe traveling through Canada or visiting. But there is outright anger directed at any product with a "Made in the USA" flag. Every store in Canada is going around with maple leaf stickers marking the "Made in Canada" products. Consumer boycotts are springing up organically across the country. The talk is really sort of ... ugly.

I get the sense there has been significant damage done to the US Brand in Canada. And I don't think it's confined to Canada. I have friends in the UK who say the same. They are also just frankly pissed beyond all reason. I expect it's the same across Europe.

Hopefully it dies down. It's absolutely non-productive and unCanadian. America and Canada have been ride or die BFF's for a century or more. I live in Arizona 1/2 time and I love LOVE it here. I have yet to personally meet an American I didn't genuinely like. You are good people. You do not deserve any of this.

Unless of course you voted for this. In which case... hope you get everything you voted for and then some.

also RIP to /r/prepperintel, it has turned into just another 'Drumf le bad' subreddit

Violent protesters who ended up fleeing to the UK. Also it's CPC the Communist Party of China, if we're going to talk about social studies and modern politics let's use proper terms.

Folx, let's remember to call the Democratic People's Republic of Korea by its proper name. Saying "North Korea" is a propaganda tactic to imply there are two Koreas, rather than one proud nation sadly suffering under partial occupation by imperialist forces.

It's only the more recognized one in the US where it's actively misused on purpose to link the CPC to the now defunct CCCP. The intent behind it is to continue red scare propaganda tactics.

It's not being pedantic it's about understanding why certain groups, like the US government, speak and act in certain ways. Critical thinking and understanding intent of the author are important lessons I teach during the first month of every school year and I repeat with every single one of my ELA and social studies classes. Those skills are far more important than them memorizing the dates of when each state ratified the Constitution.

Those protestors, from the videos I've seen, were actively attacking other civilians who were counter protesting them. They were attacking them with homemade bombs and bows and arrows, and other potentially lethal devices. And if you've ever been to China, you know that the Chinese police are waaaay more non-violent than any American or EU police forces. We also know that they only moved in when the protesters started harming other civilians.

Btw, the counter protests were far larger than the protests, but the US news never seemed to cover that salient fact here in the US. So I don't blame you if you didn't know that. I'm lucky in that I know folks who live(d) in HK and were there for all of that craziness. I also know that for some reason despite protesting a bill in the HK government (the inciting incident was that anti integration HK folks were upset that a male feminist wasn't allowed to escape prosecution for a r*pe he committed on the mainland by returning to HK) where everyone both on the mainland and in HK speak and read both of the two most common Chinese languages a nice amount of the protestors' signs were in English. Now why would that happen? Why would folks in HK on one side of a protest use English signs? Does English have some sort of history with HK in particular? The Century of Humiliation? The Opium Wars? The 99 Year "Lease." No dogs or Chinese Allowed Streets in HK? British and American Colonizers (particularly the Delano Drug Cartel, grandparents of Little Ole FDR)?

A good example to compare to might be the Charlottesville protests. There American liberals blamed the police for not acting soon enough or from keeping the two groups separate. Especially when the (Nazi and racist fascists) protestors became violent and started attacking the (liberals and leftists) counter protesters.

The protestors during the HK riots were not peaceful and attacked other civilians (businesses too, but things can be replaced) and that's when the police moved in to stop them from seriously injuring or killing other people. You're good with preventing murder and assault right? Even when that person disagrees with you politically right?

So suffuse with rage at Elon's Heated G*mer Moment is the British Government that even Starmer has 'hit out' at the Nazi c*nt in one of his latest 'uwu notice me elon' press releases

Starmer hits out by saying he would "not be happy" if somebody in his Government did it, and wouldn't confirm he was talking specifically about Musk, instead giving an evasive 'well if the cap fits...' response.

Here's one of his senior MPs unambiguously praising a man who killed sixty million people

Too scared to call out Trump's buddy in case Trump gets upset and hits us with tariffs. Truly spineless.

Frick, now even Starmer is part of Musk's gang of acolytes? How far up does this go?

'hit us with tarriffs' neighbor we don't even export anything, personally I hope he hits us with nuclear missiles

Musk-san please

Musk is a fricking nazi.

He does nazi shit, like the salute, he supports the AfD, he's seemingly paying for Tommy "But please call me Robinson as the poors won't like me with a double-barreled surname and I can't grift off 'em" Yaxley-Lennon, anti-Woke-but-not-satirically, disingenuous, lying, grifting, obsequious little narcissist.

Anyone defending Musk with "It was a heart gesture" or "He has Autism!" is talking unmitigated, willfully ignorant, racist apologist, bollocks and they fricking know it.

CRASH OUT ALERT

let me get this straight neighbor, Musk was secretly a devoted national socialist, kept this fact so well-hidden that nobody even had an inkling until he came out in support of the 1st amendment (a known nazi amendment), and in the years since then he expertly manouevered himself into a tenuous position of mediocre state power, just to throw it all away at the end by getting up on stage and throwing his best Roman?

Anyone denying it was a nazi salute is blind or wilfully ignorant

report this man for antisemitism

This is so stupid. It wasn't a salute. Why are we even wasting time on this when the economy is in tatters?

It absolutely was though

do you think we could maybe have some quality of life or-

no we HAVE to obsess over the literal hand gestures of a foreign billionaire for some reason

ARMED POLICE THERE'S AN UNLICENSED THOUGHT ON THIS PROPERTY

Is there any reason to use the word uchu? It seems like almost everything (colour schemes, AI models, startups, cowtools, apps, ...) is named using a single randomly-selected Japanese word these days. But... why?

you know why

I'm confused by the usage of the word color scheme.

To me a color scheme is something like monokai. A small number of colors that go well together. The application (eg syntax highlighting in a code editor) is obvious and easy. This is just...lots of monochrome colors? How would I use this? Not trying to be dismissive, I'm just confused.

Yeah imo they should've used "color palette".

Frick Joe Biden and frick the Democrats in general. I have voted for them consistently and consistently I've been left wanting. The democrats have no backbone. They have no will to fight. They've coasted for decades by being "the rational adult" in the room while the Republicans go further and further into the most insane levels of theocratic fascism seen since the 19fricking30s.Frick the Democrats, frick their decorum, and frick Joe Biden for being a worthless sack of bones in general. My lifespan just got statistically shortened by four fricking years because of this flaccid do-nothing excuse for a party. (0)

Angriness: 😡😡😡😡😡

For what? (582)

He really let us down. Yes, I do think Biden's presidency overall was beneficial for the middle class, but he failed us where it mattered most—holding the previous administration accountable. The appointment of Merick Garland alone was a failure. Throw in his 180 in being a one term President, his administration hiding his mental decline, his disastrous Afghanistan withdrawal (I'm a veteran of that war, that one hurt), and his failure to exit the race in a timely manner all allowed Trump to win and put us in a position to collapse as a nation.Biden did a lot of good, but his failures far outweigh his successes in my opinion. I'm a democrat for what it's worth. (281)

tl;dr: Blake Lively () claimed that that Justin Baldoni sexually harassed her while filming a dance scene by dragging his lips down her neck and telling her 'it smells so good'. In her complaint filed last month she insisted nobody overheard the comment because the romantic montage was silent and the microphones were switched off. In fact, the microphones were on and the tapes makes clear the comment about her smelling so good was in response to Lively talking about her spray tan.

It's "their job" to be intimate when it's what they signed up for, but at the same time, it's "the job" of the director (and others) to facilitate that by creating a comfortable and safe environment. The little bit of script that was included at the beginning of the video didn't mention kissing at all. Actors are human beings, acting is an emotional process, actors on a studio film set are also workers with rights that deserve basic respect (like not being intimately touched by their boss in a way that they didn't agree to and makes them feel unsafe).

It's a kiss in a romance movie. She didn't sign up for a Disney movie and get asked to spread her holes for the camera.

The thing that gets me is that he asked consent about putting mouths near each other, but didn't get consent to nuzzle her neck. Isn't she allowed to be uncomfortable about that?

He didn't get consent to look in her general direction! Hang that man!

Is it normal for "evidence" to be released like this? I mean, shouldn't this wait for court?

It's the Depp playbook and you can tell he has the same PR smear team.

Noooooo you can't just disprove the accusations we made in public by making the evidence public NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
