Things that made you laugh today (Political Version)

Yeah but in Trudeua's case it was in 2001, everyone knew better at the time, even though he's claiming that "now" society knows better.

Well, in the US maybe. Canada is a different place. It was also before 9/11 and when most people even thought about Muslims outside of the intelligence community.

Canada isn't that far away.

Quebec is pretty behind on race relations. It wasn't that long ago (within the past 5-6 years maybe) that some Montreal Canadiens fans wore blackface and afro wigs in what they appeared to think was support of PK Subban, who played there at the time. 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.

Slavery and African-American relations and Islamic relations are worlds different there.

The '80's didn't happen in Canada until the middle '90's.

It's still (and will always be) the 70's in the UK
