Then you aren't my target audience. Canadians are very different from USA Republicans who have a long and loud history on this topic and then flipped in one day to say it's okay to have a little communism as a treat.
Well yeah sure, it's just a little histrionic to call all government owned businesses communism. They aren't enforcing a monopoly on chip fab or anything.
Trump tries to ban AMD then sure, it's communism and would be super weird.
I really feel like we are talking past each other. I'm talking about people who wanted to privatize the Social Security system and sell off the USPS because they believed any amount of government in any service was dangerous. I'm not being histrionic, I'm asking the people who have spent decades being histrionic to explain why they are suddenly very chill with something that was, until a week ago, a firmly held religious belief.
Don't mistake my position for that of the people I'm trying to reach.
Yeah I get it now, those kinds of folks don't know the difference
We could redo that one pawnstars meme
