  • I should probably point out that many people here in Canada fucking *hate* the very idea of this kind of equitable multiculturalism. The idea that arepas and poutine are both fully and equally Canadian sounds like hell to them. This is not unusual anywhere, I don't think.

  • @Sigmundkapje @surethingwhitey of course, it'd be foolish to ignore the fact that Trump and Republicans expanded ICE and DHS (the most overtly fascist paramilitary institutions in the US from the beginning) funding to be larger than pretty much every military on earth other than our own. He wanted an army of loyalists to make sure he never has to face consequences for anything he does, and the real military has previously balked at illegal actions like what ICE is currently doing.

  • 🔴 L’Europa non è in pericolo perché si muove, ma perché resta ferma.
    Si difende invece di adattarsi, sacralizza l’identità mentre il mondo accelera. Le riforme tecniche falliscono senza una svolta psicologica e culturale. Così lo strappo non sarà evitato: sarà solo più violento.

  • @Sigmundkapje @surethingwhitey it's unlikely without an open civil war. States run elections, not the federal government. So, he could interfere with elections in very red states with complicit legislatures, but it's the swing states and blue states he needs to interfere with, and those seem unlikely to go along quietly. Which is why he's trying to interfere and manipulate in other ways. They're currently trying to extort access to voter data in Minnesota under threat of continued occupation.

    It’s a fortunate coincidence that the whole topic started considering the role of Italian culture in Canadian history
    That is because even now, what might look from the outside as a cohesive nation and culture, is still the patchwork of Italic cultures and languages often completely different from each other that existed before the unification, in such a way we still experience actual culture shocks when travelling from a region to another. I guess this kind of cultural framework is similar to many other nations, still I’d say the Italian one is quite prominent in its internal differences
    And as other nations, it happened that cultural differences created tensions motivated by classism and internal racism, especially towards southern Italians, leading to the spread of the word “terrone” as an insult to describe them.
    And lots of the prejudices that existed more than a century ago are still alive in the mind of a lot of Italians.
    Now try to imagine the kind of tensions that exist now between Italians and immigrants’ cultures, in a country that sometimes doesn’t even feel like an actual country

  • So, I am trying to hold an idea of Canada in my mind where the story of Italian Canadians (and West Indians and Maghrebi and Ukrainian and, and, and) is as foundational and collectively held as the story of the Great Peace and the Acadian expulsion or the national railroad. If there is a "we" here, as a Canadian, it's as much my story as theirs. It feels strange and uncomfortable, which is why I started this poll. And, why, I think, it has so few responses. Anyway, I am Yes, but it's hard.
