Fine in your first post you said Many ways worse. Then in your second post you say vastly superior, then in your third post you say some ways worse.
You start off all authoritative and then slowly soften and walk back your claims. No one would have called you out if you said Vastly superior but some ways worse.
There was no need for Hyperbole.
Before I click any of the above links do they discuss Alien Autopsy results? Last time I followed links you posted the credibility of them left much to be desired. (This one is an attack on your credibility as a poster)

Love Canada, but I don't think there are any circumstances under which we would return. The anarchy/Gilead type topics are classroom discussions at this point, and I don't expect will become a realized threat. In the mean time moving back would cost 50% in lost income (without converting dollars), and then in retirement is just too damn cold. We're here, eligible for citizenship soon, and will be happy to be dual.

Your guys ability to make it through every day in near anarchy is incredibly admirable. Thank you for your bravery, may God continue to watch over you.

In reading the last page or so of posts, I find it hard to know who is actually being serious and who isn't.
Damn post-truth era!

I’ve defeated your arguments so many times, so effectively, that you’ve sent me DMs telling me to go #### myself out of total frustration for not being able to keep up the charade of intellectual authority.
You’ve also gone as far as to disparage the use of facts and links, calling it “google fu” and trying to make fun of people for it. So, idk man maybe pick what you want and everyone can put on the kid gloves you think are soft enough. If you want to actually be taken seriously, maybe don’t make three separate points on the status of a country that each contradict each other and actually provide links that support what your actual point is instead of just show where you erroneously drew your overall conclusion from.
I get it, it’s important to you to always be the expert, from pretending to be a psychologist to pretending to do top level business deals. But maybe try not to lose your #### when someone says “lol dumb watch” like you’re about to single handedly brow beat them into also being mr super duper serious who can’t keep more than one thought in their head!

Thank you for proving my point, yet again. Attack the poster, not the content or issue. Marginalize the individual instead of discussing the idea. Twist information from other unrelated topics and change context to try and make the other poster seem wrong. Always the same tactics.

As someone who was a big fan of Chuck, this was a little disheartening to read

I had to google who that was. Just another Kevin Sorbo level endorsement.

Yea, I had no idea who he was either. Clearly a nothing endorsement.

I hope you're moving from Chicago in retirement then, the lake effect winters there give me the shivers, there are far more warmer climates in Canada then friken Chicago.

I thought you were down here way before I was. We crossed the border exactly one year ago today. Doesn't seem like it was that long ago.
I can apply for citizenship on July 1, 2025. I would like to say that I planned it that way, but I am not that clever.
We aren't sure where we are going to retire, we have assets in both countries and will probably keep it that way unless tax rules change significantly.

It never happened, and I believe he just blames Dems for not letting all his fans in, that there were 30 or 40000 people that were forced to wait outside.
The crowd size thing really bugs his orangeness.

I forgot there's a VP debate tomorrow. Sounds like Walz is pretty nervous about the debate against Vance, according to CNN.
