Not just the threats, but the deafening silence from Americans in general about it (outside Lemmy) is something we will not forget for a generation.

Seriously. I have too many American friends who are confused when I tell them I have and will have no interest in going down to America, even if it's just to visit them, for the foreseeable future and they wonder why.

Could it be because your country was having open public discourse on the merits of annexing us? Or maybe that I don't want to get thrown into an ICE concentration camp for no reason?

Interesting that they would be confused at all. I have an interest, because Canada is cool, but I won't be visiting anytime soon because I know we are the worst and nobody is going to want us there. I also don't want to deal with assholes at the border, even though I'm a US citizen they have carte blanche to do anything they are in the mood for.

This is not the way things work. I don't think there is a dislike of the population in general, and in real life, if you're spending your money, no business is going to refuse or mistreat you.
