A lot of MTL fans were completely surprised when people said that was racist.
It is pretty wild how many politicians in general are being found to have blackface photos. I've made it to 37 years old and it's never once occurred to me that 'Hey, maybe I should cover my face in shoe polish, that would be hilarious'. Like it isn't hard not to do this, lol
If we're using the left's standards where it doesn't matter how long ago it was, which we totally should because fuck the left and Trudeau, then that doesn't matter and Trudeau is a Nazi for life.Quote:
