My wife comes from the west. I am from the East. We live in Nova Scotia now but we spent most of our lives in the west. We made some money in the oil and gas industry though it was in environmental reclamation not extraction. Lots of her family people are in extraction.
Some of her family are showing their true colors right now, loudly and proudly on Facebook and she is reading it all. People that tell her they love her are saying how we are all just in it for the transfer payments. It's all for the gravy train to keep rolling. She's watching her family disintegrate in real time on Facebook and tell her that she's a piece of shit as are her friends and relatives from my family, for voting against fascism. Not one of them has considered that they are speaking about her.
We're as fucked as our neighbors to the south.
We really should be turning an eye towards American owned media in Canada, especially since it's almost entirely owned by hard Republican interests (and that would be bad if I had said Democrat as well).
It's insane we can almost all collectively identify Trump as a threat and an enemy, but his disinformation arm isn't.
This is our existential threat.
Can't disagree with you there. That shit can fuck right off and should be torn to a million pieces never to exist again. I'm not an authoritarian however and people are free to do as they choose. They choose badly a lot. Even those I love the most.
Propaganda is a hell of a drug. I've read about similar experiences from Ukrainians with family in Russia.
I got banned from Facebook for fighting literal terrorists. Who used the service to attack literal at risk children. If anything. mark Zuckerberg should be tried for crimes against humanity and he and his wife hung like the traitors to man kind they are.
Okay. I see it now. #thereAreOtherAdjectives
Wrong. You're thinking MID-west. Get over the Rockies and we'll talk.
BC is Pacific, not the west. Alberta is the west.
I also studied and worked in northern BC in forestry and lived on the coastal islands as a hippie. Please don't presume to know me. Did you move to BC? That's a very un-BC thing to say in my experience of living there and being from somewhere else.
I have also in my fifty years of life, thirty five of which I spent travelling and living in many different places and provinces, most west of Manitoba and east of Quebec, never ever once have I heard Alberta and Sask called the mid west. Never.
