The backlash begins

Mccoy since you have felt that I am obsessed with Trump, is it not fair to say that when ever we talk about Kriyananda you also are obsessed with your indignation towards him as well? I’ve heard nothing but good things he’s had to say about Paramahansa Yogananda.

No, maybe I was obsessed for a time, I am no longer.
I cannot give importance to such a lowly soul, I cannot even hate him. Can you hate an insect, even though revulsive? No, an awful insect has a role in biology and awful souls have after all their role in creation.

I only mention K when others post about it.

In your case, you are writing unsolicited posts about Mr. Trump all the time, you have been doing it for 8 years. You need it. You need Mr. Trump. It is some psychological mechanism that makes you feel well after you have written all sorts of things against Mr. Trump.

And, what am I, to take you away from this pleasure? I'm going to complain no longer. It is a good reason to be updated about what happens in America and the world.

It interests me as a trained psychologist not so much what you think but what is and actually has been happening. It would be much better to look in the mirror and see if there was any one I was obsessed with all this time it would be you and your views. But it’s always easy to look at things on the surface and not see what is below. No Lucca this is a karmic situation between you and I and we are both feeding it. The movie is unfolding showing us two opposite sides of the political spectrum, but I believe we’ve done alright. I mean all this time we both have attempted to treat one another with respect and after all it is a drama for us to be entertained by, no matter how much we are both polarized in our views and determined to stand by them.

Steve, I'll say that again, after all this karmic situation between us has prompted me to update seriously on American policy, making me aware of aspects I would have never suspected.

This is undoubtedly a good outcome.

Good to know. We are both learners. Learning humility in the presence of great souls in our midst. This is the latest;

After nearly 10 years of Liberal rule in Canada, a deepening cost of living crisis had soured public support for Justin Trudeau and pollsters predicted the Conservative party, led by Pierre Poilievre, would seize a convincing majority of seat. But since Donald Trump suggested the US might take over Canada – with threats ranging from “economic coercion” to outright annexation – the mood has shifted, and Canada has seen a groundswell of visceral patriotism. One poll, from Ipsos, found that the Conservatives had shed roughly 12 points of support within two weeks, and another found that 40% of Canadians felt Mark Carney – a Liberal and the former governor of the Bank of England – was best suited to face off against Trump, with only 26% saying Poilievre.

What are analysts saying now? “Now the election isn’t going to be about Trudeau,” said Éric Grenier, a political analyst at the Writ. “It will most likely be about the next four years – and who is best able to deal with Trump.”

Steve, to tell the truth, I've always seen Canada as a state of the US. Nothing changes crossing the border. the language is the same (expect in the French speaking areas), everything else is just about the same.

I’ve been in Canada many times. It is a cultural shock for Canadians coming into Cloneland from huge hundreds of miles of forests. Canada has much more regard for its citizens than the United Clones of Ameretards. To make Canada into a carbon copy of Cloneland would be a devastating cultural downturn.

Maybe I can grasp your point but, on the other side, I know that, after Mr. Trudeau became the premier, many Canadians wanted to cross the border to America and cease being Canadians.

I presume it's an issue of different viewpoints. Maybe a referendum would report the feelings of the majority of the Canadians.
