Trudeau In Blackface

[93henfan]

LOL.

Of course, the liberal outlets are calling it brownface and will give him a pass because he's liberal.

The pain, the horror, OMG!

Seriously?

Yup, 2001 wasn't some sort of bygone era where this was acceptable in any way. If he was a teen or college kid and apologized, then it can be forgiven. However he was a 30 year old man at the time.

I think they have an election next month. The voters can speak.

Technically he is doing an over the topic stereotype of an Arabic person, which would seem to make "brown" the more appropriate term

I've never understood the way we chose to describe skin colors, as they don't really match anyone they are supposed too.

At any rate, this will be interesting. Trudeau has been the "anti-trump" for many super lefties on social media.

The best way to put an end to the crazy rules of wokescolds...force wokescolds to abide by their own rules.

Live by the woke mob, die by the woke mob.

That could be a valid point. We do need to find a way for folks to grow thicker skin.

Trudeau was already in a pretty tough election - he was already facing issues for trying to get the government to back off SNC-Lavalin, and he backed off a few electoral promises from the last time (they're behind in meeting their Paris-accord goals, he greenlit a controversial oil pipeline, and he's still selling weapons to the Saudis). His biggest draw was that he wasn't like the conservative government that he replaced and that he was woke. Considering his disapproval rating already (something like 60%), I can't see having brown face pictures from just 15 years ago or so is going to play well for him. He's a good campaigner, so who knows, he might pull out of this. But this isn't a good look for him right now.

Oh he's dead fucking serious, Myron.

If this were an episode of South Park, this would be the part where Stan stands up and tells everyone to calm the fvck down and that costumes are just for fun while Kenny dies again in a piece of comedy and everything temporarily becomes sane again.

I don't think there will be any luck for us.

He's a lib. It'll blow over. Just like the VA governor's did.

[Baldy]

He would make a wonderful Governor of Virginia.

What's ironical is that the Leftists are standing their ground and defending Trudeau using the same argument that got Megyn Kelly fired from NBC.

Wokeisme...

Apparently there are three separate instances of him wearing black/brown face. The yearbook photo, apparently he went black face in a talent show (he sang "Day-O" by Harry Bellafonte) and there's another random video where he's wearing it. The dude's really committed to it apparently.

For one bad decision? If that’s the bar then we all need to quit. All politicians need to resign.

Trips is the only pure wokie on CS. He just plays video games.

But, to the point, I think about the late great Donk guvnah of Loozianna, Edwin Edwards, who famously said that he’d be re-elected unless caught in bed with a dead girl or a live boy.

Got to love it. First it's one, then it's two, and now Trudeau says he has "no idea" how many times he may have worn brown/black face (translation, probably a lot more photos coming out). Do they not have other Halloween costumes or party ideas in Canada other than this? And this wasn't like it was back in middle school, the most recent one is when he was 29 years old (he's 47 now). For a guy that ran on a diversity platform, this is certainly an odd way to celebrate that diversity.

He's just trying to follow in John Howard Griffin's footsteps and understand what it means to be a minority.



This is an excellent book.

[CID1990]

if a leftist wears black/brown face that it is with the intention of being cute and funny

whereas if a classical liberal does it it means you’re calling for black/brown people to be thrown into ovens

I want to vote for Liberal leaning ideological platforms... but the subscriber base is too stupid

Don't know about "liberal outlets" in general but I spent the day on the road today listening to NPR and they were NOT giving him a pass.

My own thought is that this hypersensitivity about a White person dressing up as a Black (or Brown) person is ridiculous. It's an example of the kind of irrational hypersensitivity that helps put an atrocity like Trump in power. And, yes, I've heard all the history of Blackface stuff. I've heard it over and over again. I heard it a lot on NPR today.

But get over it. To me, if Blacks and other minorities want to be viewed as just like everybody else they need to let go of this "we want to take offense" thing.

Read an article today. Meghan Kelly was forced out after only talking about blackface. Trudeau has to go!
