Thus raising the average IQ of both countries.

Whole USA need a burn ward right now, too bad no one there can afford one

(I'm in the USA, born and raised.)

The seldom seen "suicide by self immolation".....is what I'd say if there hadn't been so many people literally setting themselves ablaze this past year.

Hope you're ok down there, be safe.

I’m old, straight, white, cis, and have money. Other than my great shame at what my country has become, I’ll be just fine.

Dammit. That’s mean! I can’t argue with it, but I’m sad.

OK, one immigrant is a drug addict who doesn't work

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 20 points 4 days ago (3 children)

Yeah but I'm sure there are some ways he's not integrating into Florida culture

[–] psmgx@lemmy.world 12 points 4 days ago

He's already been to rehab a bunch and loves to spew Christian MAGA nonsense -- he'll fit in with all of the other NY snowbirds

I haven’t read the article yet but before I do, my guess is:

He is going to blame censorship or something like that.

He is actually doing it cause he is rich now and wants to be in a tax haven country.

Edit:

Yep, I was right:

β€œThe issue with the College of Psychologists is very annoying, to say the least, and the new legislation that the Liberals are attempting to push through,Β Bill C-63, we’d all be living in a totalitarian hellhole if it passes,” he told his daughter.

β€œThe tax situation is out of hand. The government in Canada at the federal level is incompetent beyond belief, and it’s become uncomfortable for me in my neighbourhood in Toronto,” he added.

Says the man who has been freely expressing his ideas for 6 years and making lots of money doing so, he just now wants to keep as much of it.

> Wants to avoid 'totalitarian hellhole'

> Moves to Florida

[–] ipkpjersi@lemmy.ml 6 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

The funny thing is, he's gonna claim censorship, but Poilievre wants to ban porn and implement digital IDs. North America is fucked for at least the next 4 years.

[–] tywarth@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago

He blasted Canada's immigration policy, then became an immigrant.

[–] andrew_bidlaw@sh.itjust.works 38 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Is that an ad for Canada or what?

[–] lemmy_outta_here@lemmy.world 30 points 4 days ago

Why he doing us Americans dirty like that?😭

[–] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 9 points 4 days ago

It's your turn!

Dropping this article (The Intellectual we Deserve) here as I do whenever I come across a Jordan Peterson post. The article is long but it is an incredibly thoughtful and well researched breakdown of Jordan Peterson, his tactics, and his following. I found it very insightful.

[–] modeler@lemmy.world 7 points 4 days ago

That is indeed a really well written article

It must've been hard escaping the Saskatchewinian gulag that the CCP (Canadian Communist Party) locked him up in for questioning the woke, trans agenda.

Looking forward to his Yeonmi Park arc

[–] phoenixz@lemmy.ca 11 points 3 days ago

Aaahh, nooo.... So anyways..

Don't let the door hit you on your way out.

[–] dom@lemmy.ca 22 points 4 days ago (2 children)

Til this doofus is canadian.

[–] lemmy_outta_here@lemmy.world 14 points 4 days ago (1 children)

You may keep him. Please, I insist.

[–] Zorsith@lemmy.blahaj.zone 15 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago) (2 children)

May the gators and meth consume him

I thought he hated immigrants?

[–] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 12 points 3 days ago

When he talks about immigrants he means people who aren't white.

Good riddance to bad brain damage.

Try not to cry when the door hits your bony ass on the way out

Thank Christ for that!

He's a Floridaman now. He'll feel right at home in the land of self righteous douchebags.

[–] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago

I can't hear you over the sound of my free health care.

[–] Grant_M@lemmy.ca 15 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I've never heard a more resounding commendation for the woke ideology

[–] eronth@lemmy.world 12 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Is the U.S. just Canada's dumping ground?

[–] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 9 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Actually yes. And we're not sorry.

His drug connections just got better, not great for a recovering addict.

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 8 points 4 days ago (1 children)
[–] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 8 points 4 days ago

Sorry I can't hear you.

[–] Wahots@pawb.social 7 points 4 days ago

Why would he move to Florida? It's constantly getting fucked by hurricanes. And once Trump defunds NOAA, nobody will be able to see them coming accurately.

...Perhaps Trump will run everything out of mar a lago until a big storm wrecks it all.
