Over the past days and weeks some people here have openly expressed anti-Canadian views. Essentially, they would prefer Canadians were less funny, less popular, and less existing in this place.

Some of those accounts specifically targeted me and my friends in a not so subtle manner.

Many people have seen the comments and have countered them or put themselves in the line of fire.

Dani, Kace, Liz, Myles, Myra, Karen, Bella, Aaron, Retired Librarian, Woke…and so many more have been mentioning and countering this xenophobia. I thank each of you who have supported me/us.

One of the accounts believes a Canadian who makes jokes about raisins will cause the downfall of democracy in America.

Another account is angry they were called out by a Canadian person who has a disability regarding their use of ableist language. They were even madder when others refused to support their outrage.

Yet another account is just mad because their lack of restraint in their spout behaviour was something I wasn’t interested in being part of. It wasn’t a comment on them. It just wasn’t my thing.

The thing they all have in common is a willingness to hurt anyone for their own need for attention.

Followed by a quick gaslighting session for their followers.

They can be very convincing.

haven’t said anything, because I don’t believe they deserve any air time.

That doesn’t make it less hurtful.

It is hurtful.

If having fun and creating a safe community for myself and the people I communicate with here is too much for you, that’s a you problem. (That’s a Kace quote)

I don’t have any energy for that bullshit. (A Myra quote)

I have raisins to promote. (This quote is all April) 😉
