bush_cheney2004 Posted February 7, 2018 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2018 (edited) Trudeau finally admits he made a mistake with bad attempt at "peoplekind" (dumb) joke...but it was good for international laughs. Quote "I made a dumb joke a few days ago that seems to have gone a little viral in the room, on the peoplekind comment," he said. ...British TV broadcaster Piers Morgan called Trudeau a "Chief PC Plonker," accusing him of killing off mankind. Australian columnist Rita Panahi called him the "Kim Kardashian of political leaders; an all-style, no-substance himbo with all the depth of a puddle." Jokes included pictures posted of comic superhero Batman changing his name to "Batperson" and suggestions that Manitoba become "Peopletoba." During a testy question period exchange Tuesday, the Conservatives' deputy leader, Lisa Raitt, urged the prime minister to "person up." http://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/trudeau-peoplekind-bad-joke-1.4524233 https://www.sudbury.com/local-news/top-10-peoplekind-memes-poke-fun-at-trudeaus-bad-attempt-at-humour-833495 Edited February 7, 2018 by bush_cheney2004 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CITIZEN_2015 Posted February 7, 2018 Report Share Posted February 7, 2018 (edited) It is very sad and disappointing that supposedly feminist Trudeau stays silent on the bravery of Iranian women who as we speak risking their lives asking for basic human rights (freedom not to wear idiotic compulsory hijab) and correct terminology mankind to peoplekind while ignoring real actions. http://ottawacitizen.com/opinion/columnists/glavin-demonstrations-for-equality-in-iran-peoplekind-jokes-in-canada Well said Ottawa Citizen above. and below: It is also a fact that even if it were something as effortless as a strong and stern public statement warning the ayatollahs that we are all watching them, or some small gesture of affection and encouragement the House of Commons might make towards the Girls of Revolution Street, we are instead reduced to this.

Guest Posted February 7, 2018 Report Share Posted February 7, 2018 I'm put in mind of the soccer player who dives in the box in the hope of getting a penalty kick. When he is genuinely tripped the Ref looks the other way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trudeau hasn't done anything to undo Harper's shit and it's Trudeau's government that's facilitating the sale of the military helicopters to the Philippines. His inaction regarding Saudi Arabia merely underscores his action regarding the Philippines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His inaction regarding Saudi Arabia merely underscores his action regarding the Philippines. I guess it's a fair argument to try and apportion blame. Harper signed the deal, Trudeau claimed he needed to honor it else we lose trust. Maybe we should just have left off and had Trump tack that on to his deal with the Saudis. Apparently it did provide a good number of jobs here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't forget Obama ramped up extra-judicial killings of Muslims, kept Guantanamo open and increased the states ability to spy on everyone. Why he gets such a bad rap from right-wingers is actually surprising. Didn't kill, imprison, torture or spy enough I suppose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now I thought your hero had something against Muslim's at one point didn't he? Threatened to kick 'em all out and ban them from coming to the US.

We should refuse to sell anything to such regimes because we disapprove of them! Which accomplishes exactly what? They shrug and buy their helicopters or tanks or aircraft from the Russians or Chinese, both of whom will be delighted to make the money and gain influence. Ah, but we'll be left with our nobility! Having fully expressed our disdain for them! Of course, we'll continue to let China sell tens or hundreds of billions worth of stuff here because, well, you know, it's cheap.
