You know, it’s funny, the only time I read someone referring to Americans as Yankees is when it’s a post-Soviet bloc troll. Such a red flag to me.
Edit: this is the second time on here I’ve experienced uniform bigotry for Americans without knowing my personal story. You are insulting someone who is an ally, whether or not you care. If you are going to win the war on authoritarianism and the future you should do a better job of parsing friend from foe. I am not you enemy and my experience with Yankee rings true in all my travels of the world.
That kind of irrational logic will no doubt serve you well. Enjoy your future!

20+ years behind
True... Though things have accelerated at an alarming pace over the past few years

The 5 eyes countries are not allowed to spy on their own citizens, but they can freely share data.
Isn't there an obvious loophole here.
It’s almost like it was by design.
They also just spy on their own citizens anyway, because who is going to stop them?

Is there a word for when the media is constantly like 3+ years behind with "warnings" like this? I mean Jesus Christ, turning into?
Better that they cover it than not. And the recent ramp up is worth reporting on, it's a new level of weaponization compared to previous administrations.

How the US is turning into a mass techno-surveillance state
President Trump and his former star advisor, Elon Musk, have accelerated the deployment of a vast technological infrastructure that monitors the lives of millions of people. The system is focusing on immigrants — for now

[David Attenborough voice] Here we see the Yankee attempt to protect their bubble by claiming that anything which contradicts their perceived reality is the result of some dangerous foreigner.
However, while the Yankee does their best to isolate themselves from the perceived dangers outside, they are completely unaware that this paranoia is just one of the symptoms of the parasite that has begun to lodge itself deep within their brain. Without immediate assistance the Yankee will likely develop increasingly fascist tendencies before perishing in a rather gruesome manner as the Yankee colony self destructs.

Definitely not a "all criticism of the US is literal soviet propaganda" coping mechanism

That sounds like the lazy thinking of a yank. With love from post-Soviet bloc, Canada. Cry us all a river about “bigotry against Americans”

When America sneezes, the world catches a cold. We can fight this together or troll each other into extinction. I find your tone horrendous for a Canadian, one without any proof. More likely a Russian troll.

You know nothing about me. You wouldn’t be saying this if you got to know me.

They’re coming for you after they ruin what’s left of the US. We either fight together and quit trolling me simply because I’m American or we die divided. The vitriol for me personally is unwarranted.

You joke, but they’re coming for you next. Just watch. Today you’ve lost an ally in fighting what’s going on.

I am fighting for your future and freedom as well whether you realize it or not.

Let me know when the "post-soviet bloc" builds a milary base on my continent like the Yankees do and then we'll talk.

Bet you $500 that the next democrat president won’t tear down the system and will in fact give even more contracts to Palantir & co.
Palantir have been with every president since it's inception. I once searched palintir, lotr 10+years ago, it was already well established by then

God I miss the pre-9/11 US, when the worst thing happening was bad jokes on SNL about Bill Clinton and cigars.
Now read some books and see how much Bill Clinton is directly to blame for most awful shit we're dealing with today, and while you shouldn't come to justify 9-11, you'll understand its motivation correctly.
Bill Clinton and neo-libs like him is why we go right instead of left as a society.
