More than 250 Canadian citizens and residents have signed a petition calling for Elon Musk to be stripped of his Canadian citizenship. Musk's ties to US President Donald Trump, who plans to impose a 25 per cent tariff on all Canadian imports next month and has spoken of Canada as a "terrorist" country, have been strained.

    Being oppressed isn’t a contest.

    What a stupid thing to say. It doesn’t need to be a contest. Some groups are targeted more, that’s just statement of fact. I doubt the ones that are targeted less feel like they’ve won anything.

    if you think Mexicans have been oppressed more by the US than the natives living further north, you should probably study your history better

    I’m not talking about history. I’m talking about the modern day. If you believe the trail of tears was within the last hundred years, you should probably study your history better.

      Fine, if that’s how you want this conversation to go:

      If you believe the US is currently oppressing Mexicans more than it’s oppressing Native Americans, right now in the modern day, you’re just fucking ignorant of everything, let alone history.
