The subtext of the right-handed circle jerk above you is because years ago the Canadian government didn't let truckers obstruct the streets for months on end and because a licensing board thought Jordan Peterson was preaching out of his depth. Meanwhile, for the US these people cheer people being jailed for weeks for insulting the regime, journalists being deported for covering protests of the regime, the President and his appointed head of the FCC placing their own restrictions on the news, and and the government "restricting the right to protest" with unreasonable and unaccountable force.
They nurse the grievance of lost privilege and exposed mediocrity by becoming "racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic — Islamophobic — you name it". I suppose we can add Canuk-Francophobic to the list. It seeps out of their pores, and they like it when thinking people wrinkle theirs nose at the foulness because it reassures them they they are still the person they are afraid of growing out of.
Many of them realize that the malevolence and incompetence is crashing the economy, but when they look at the cabal of kiddy diddlers and enablers in this administration, they think "at least they are like me," and they're fulfilled.
