  • Canada is already subordinate to the US empire, this is not a new thing. Your social programs have already been eroded by decades of neoliberal policy which originated from the Heritage Foundation, the authors of Project 2025. For the love of god, you people have to become anticapitalist and decolonial at home to challenge US imperialism. When they extract more from here, it won’t be facilitated through military expansion, but political and economic pressure. You have to pressure your family and friends who vote liberal or conservative, you have to be active and critical of local representatives in person as a bare minimum of political involvement, you have to be comfortable fighting the Canadian state that has always and will always operate in the interest of capital. You people take Trump as a convenient explanation for systemic failure that no individual could cause or exacerbate.

    I’m sorry that you’ve just now realized you exist in a system that connects you to a social order you have little power over, next few months are going to be rough on you I tell’ya.

    Although, I wonder if there’s a word for the conditions that someone would have to exist under to make it possible to come this far in life without ever being forced to learn about this because of their advantageous position in that system. 🧐

    Oh yeah, you think everyone born in the late 1940s had similar enough lived experiences to universalise them? That’s incredible that there’s so little variation despite drastically different socioeconomic positionalities, almost like you’d have to dismiss certain experiences that inevitably deviate from that imagined norm to allow it to exist. Of course, there’s only so many ways to account for everyone, so we will have to accept these dominant constructions of human experience as something inevitable as well.

    I wonder if there’s a word for that.
