OTTAWA - Foreign Affairs Minister Mélanie Joly says Canada has been considering a “game plan” for how it would respond if the United States takes a far-right, authoritarian shift after next year’s presidential elections.
I’ve lived in China and I can assure you that by comparison our domestic spying and propaganda are as laughable as our attempts at manufacturing consumer electronics. (and indeed the reasons for our failures at both of those things are somewhat related)
I’ve been to China, their spying is different and more blatant. But, if you think it isn’t happening here, and we’re all a bunch of lazy idiots, then you’ve been duped hard core.
You can paint everyone broad strokes all you want, doesn’t make it true. Sure, a sizeable portion of our country has a cult of moron dickheads following trumps every word. That doesn’t make the entire country lazy.

I’m honestly kind of shocked that you could visit China and come back with the conclusion that we aren’t a bunch of lazy idiots.
