I think it's super obvious that nobody will ever agree on anything and we're doomed as fuck. The only thing you can do is live your life day to day and try to be as happy as possible in whatever situation you're in. In all honesty, the USA and Canada need their borders redrawn into several new countries. It's not some strange, crazy idea to do this in an effort to please everybody. Look at Czechoslovakia, Yugoslavia, Ireland, and The United Provinces. They're all developed nations that simply decided "nope" and did their own things peacefully (well, Yugoslavia took a bit of work). Even Switzerland, despite being a single nation, is technically a confederation of independent states with a direct democracy, and each state basically makes its own rules based on what is popular locally. Not just little things, but the federal-level stuff. I think that living in the US has skewed our views on everything. It's like a failed experiment of "what if we combined a bunch of cultures and see how that goes?" Because we fucked it up with racism and genocide and slavery. Idk. I'm pretty sad about how divided things are. People are literally defending nazis. It's like equality for all is a joke. I agree, but Canada is hardly able to look down upon you guys (as people here love to do out of some inferiority complex). North America needs a mulligan. Not everyone wants to agree on policy or have the same system, in some cases they hold directly competing ideals. There's no compromise possible beyond "everyone is miserable" or "separate." The melting pot and multiculturalism don't work well unless everyone essentially renounces their heritage to create a new one together. It's the cultural equivalent of tying two people who hate each other together until they get along. Usually, you're just told what you want to hear and it's back to square one... For Canada, you have the north, the Atlantic provinces, BC, the prairies, Ontario, and Quebec that should all be independent from one-another. Many border areas share common values, like WA and OR with BC or the prairies with the northern Midwest states, etc. Everyone would be much happier. Let the South do its thing, the NE states, etc. --- "message parlor" ? do you mean the post office ? - SlayerX888 <cite>TheCyborgNinja posted [p:884979425] in Is it just...
