      Nah, just carrying on and fucking on about being french canadian all the time and how she wanted to see more stuff written by french canadians, clearly the most oppressed minority. I said “Like being french isn’t bad enough, had to be canadian too, worst of both worlds” which broke the cracker. It was epic!

      The context was that she was carrying on and on about french canadian cyberpunk, and before I cracked the cracker I had said that the only use for setting a cyberpunk narrative in Klanada would be to examine colonialism, which she promptly ignored, hence what I said. Something about the mixture of canadian nationalist undertones and how liberal cyberpunk is just, touched a nerve in me. I was pretty restrained took-restraint though imo.

      My thesis is, anyone who is fragile and white enough to be offended when I say “french bad” or “canada bad” deserves to feel offended. Don’t identify with colonial projects, right? White people in shambles.

      ur welcome 4 this autism btw
