There are currently an uncomfortable number of them (including cops, I suspect) that haven't figured out that announcing your treasonous intentions all over Facebook and Twitter just makes it easier for everyone to know who the enemy is when conflict breaks out. And as the state is usually predisposed during conflict, traitors are typically dealt with by the mob...and the mob has a far less nuanced and humane view of justice. These MAGA Canadians think it's an edgy joke. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Alcoholicorn@mander.xyz 2 points 6 months ago (1 child) Americans and traitors An occupation of Canada would mostly be handled by your own law enforcement, just under new management, though I'm sure a bunch of confederate-flag-pickup Albertans would sign up too, once hiring standards are removed. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] RaskolnikovsAxe@lemmy.ca 3 points 6 months ago Yep, all targets permalink fedilink source parent [–] Tiger666@lemmy.ca 3 points 6 months ago (2 children) Yes we will, Asshole. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] Alcoholicorn@mander.xyz 2 points 6 months ago I hope I'm wrong.

Resistance becomes possible because it will be against whatever new collaborateur occupation force, and there could still be a government in exile out there directing and giving it legitimacy. Of course, we get to live in Afghanistan but with an even harder climate in this scenario. Yaaay. /s permalink fedilink source parent
