Same here, I'd love to visit the United States, but you couldn't pay me to live there, unless I was being paid as much a top Premiership footballer.

Most things are made in China, but I do avoid any food coming from there.
I'm willing to pay extra for stuff coming from Canada.

How do I change this 'custom title' thing then?
So is your position based on a belief that the American state is worse than the Chinese State or is it that you would find it too hard (and I accept it would be hard) not to buy Chinese goods?

I hope you get to follow your dream.
We have done the drive from Canada to Florida a number of times.
Got refused a hotel room in North Carolina because we were Canadians.
We saw a restaurant advertising shrimp meals so we stopped. Everyone was Black, and they stared at us like we were some type of freaks. I explained we were Canadian, and we like shrimp. Then everyone was friendly with us. One guy came over to our table and did magic tricks for the kids.
It was the south that made me realize that some parts of the country look like a third world country.
If you can't get to the States, come to Canada. We have good authors, music and more open spaces that they do down there.
And, we hid our poverty better.

Actually it was JC3 who said that originally.
I thought it was good, so I remembered it.

Canada bit more aligned with welfare state of european countries
less likely to die from not be able to afford healthcare or simular provisions is my take from that statement

Actually, for once I wasn't.
You don't have to justify your beliefs to randoms off the internet like me. But I've travelled quite a in both the states and China, and am both well aware of the horrors both countries have perpetuated and the staggering contributions both have made to the world. I feel sadness about the lost potential of both. I just can't imagine a world view that would boycott America but not China. I can see the rationale in both, and I don't boycott either ,but for the life of me can't see how anyone could arrive at that position. Which probably is my failing.

Just enjoyin' my coffee.
One of my sons lives in Calgary, which is supposed to be one of the more conservative cities in Canada. That said, he tells me the free health care is excellent, better than the run down, robbed and part privatised NHS.

quite sure Fox news/NRA is desperately trying to find them and start the line
Communist schools are trying to take your guns away
they'll link it to the reason safe gun zones around schools are evil
if only more kids had their second amendment rights to open carrying a ar-15, this shit would not of happened

think your missing my sarcasm or cynical take on the state of the american media/ political landscape
if you want to see how bad parts of the american hive mind have gotten
go look up videos on youtube about the port albert massacre in tazmania
you have americans in the comments arguing that removing most guns from Aus was to heavy handed as gun deaths were already low in the country
before the event
trying to point out the idea to gun loving tooting fuck wits that whilst you can kill people with a knife quite easily
its a lot quicker with a gun is very hard

Basically, the USA impacts our economy more than China does.
It is not about their regime, it is about the impact on my country.

More than economy, it influences our politics, and big dark money from creepy US libertarian billionaires is shitting all over Europe, South America and elsewhere feeding culture wars and electing nationalist assholes. We’re powerless to stop it.

Just stop fucking postingwhat a prat he owns a tactical m1a a civilian copy of the M14 the world least successful 7.62 nato rifle know and for extra lols he's put a low power fixed power scope on it.
He basically has a terrible taste in weapons.
Set it up poorly
Decides intimidating potential neighbours is a good look
hopefully, a bunch of Vietnamese or Afghans move in and he can role-play running away

Not overly surprised, but the parents of the lad who shot up his school have run away.
Cowards!!!
Is this child abandonment?
Shouldn't they be there for their child?

When the world came apart, where were you?
I've often day-dreamed about riding a bike from the southern end of Chile to Vancouver (or maybe Prince Rupert) keeping as close to the Pacific as possible...
