People check to see if they’re American and then turn them upside down so the next person doesn’t have to look it up. Not so much a protest as a warning to others who care.
But you’re right, I’m not to be taken seriously because this the comment section of a social media platform… I’m sitting the toilet rn, not writing some paper for a study
Canadian here, more than happy to be your friend and also say yes, we’re pissed off. It really doesn’t take much for Canadians to like you: just don’t be a jerk, bonus points if you like hockey, that’s….basically it.
It takes a lot to get us genuinely mad. But if there’s one thing that gets us outta the cabin, it’s the opportunity to dust off our ol’ Nazi-stomping steel toes.
Clearly you aren’t from around here then. Everyone I’ve talked to is avoiding American products and I’ve personally seen upside-down items. Maaaaaaybe you shouldn’t make statements about the average Canadian if you’re not informed.
A single random picture isn’t actual evidence of this happening at all.
I saw this in a Canadian article as well.

I don’t believe this. The average Canadian/Eurooean is not aware of associated situation.
Edit: ok so the Canadians seem to have a proper movement going.
With the average European however I stand my ground, most are not aware or gaf
You’ve already shown your ass I don’t know why you think anybody’s going to take anything else you say seriously

How have I shown my ass? To do you mean?
I have friends in Canada that tell me the hatred is so fucking strong there you have no fucking idea.

You’re right! Gonna consider that in the future
Much appreciated!
Canadian here, everyone is talking about it and going out of their way to buy Canadian. Fuck the US and all their idiots.
The average European is following this more closely than their own countries politics.
That’s just our lemmy bubble I think. The human tends to overestimate society’s opinion on the topics they are invested in, imo
No bro, I talked to real people who actually live in Canada. This is a real thing get out of your bubble.
As CC a Canadian, it is absolutely happening. Elbows Up Hosers!!!
No. Thats based off people I know and talk to irl.
America: declares economic war vs the entire world.
Americans: “Good thing people don’t pay attention to things that directly effect them”
It’s like they expect everyone else to be as ignorant as they are.
Its far more entertaining than whats happening here anyway.
is this a court case?
Yes.
its still fun thing to see :)
