How come Canada still has no many anti-vax/lockdown nut jobs still?
Ours went away faster than the virus, what’s going on in Canadian society that they’re still falling for that shit? Kinda had more respect for youse than that.
Canadians are, more than ever before, influenced by American media and social media and that includes the dogmatic and polarizing rightwing anti-science narratives rooted in conspiracy theories and anti-intellectualism. We're being absorbed into the American weltanschauung since the advent of the Internet and our culture diluted. You can see it in our politics.
Is weltanschauung actually a word you Canadians use?
I want to say yes, but it's the first time I've heard of it, and my vocabulary's not bad :P. Kudos to @NathanielThomas for sharing it! I think the only German loanword I know is schadenfreude
