Right after we finally got rid of Harper, too.

Despite all the cyberpunk dystopias, I'm pretty sure one cannot simply buy Canada.

It's buying out of course there's overestimation, you buy at gross worth +10%.

So essentially anybody with $10.56 trillion could feasibly buy Canada through individual deals. Good luck, Donald! Maybe start a GoFundMe or something.

Also it is unnecessary to wish Donald good luck. The Donald doesn't need luck. The Donald is a winner. The Donald will make America great again, a promise which was also made by Ronald Reagan. And Ronald Reagan did as he promised by destroying those dastardly communist labor unions, the equally dastardly communist American middle class, supporting the freedom-loving hero of the Afghan resistance Osama Bin Laden and his Mujahideen buddies and selling weapons to those defenders of democracy and civil rights we all know and love as the theocratic republic of Iran. It is a shame Reagan never lived to see the Apocalypse, despite all his hard work to make it happen.

We, as the formless hive entity that is TET, cannot allow a psychic to be a part of our body. You could be a mole for the moderator team, scanning the hive mind for sinful thoughts worthy of a report. We have no choice but to take action in order to eliminate this threat to TET.

If sinful thoughts were rulebreaking, I'd be DOS a long time ago.

It's not writing them down here what saves me from that fate :p

This may backfire horribly, of course. Constant snark can work as indoctrination, making them one of us. It happened before, it can happen again!
