Yes... the skin colour means we are responsible for Liberal policy of residential schools. Because lumping all white people together based on the characteristic of their skin colour isn't racist... it's anti racist ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Provide a current example of systemic racism in Canada. The only examples I see are “racialized-only” job postings and EDI point systems that discredit white people on the basis of the colour of their skin. The problem is that if you try to go to the provincial human rights tribunal or even the courts, they are stacked with radical left ideologues who apply different standards of treatment to different people based on skin colour/race. It’s racist but white people deserve to be mistreated. It’s not about individual accountability anymore.

If you actually wanted the evidence you'd just type "Examples of Systemic Racism" in Canada. The first thing that will pop up is the residential school system. I had to check my calendar to be sure. It does seem we're in the year 2022. There are no residential schools in Canada. Care to try again? 18 hours ago, Moonbox said: This thread is just another place for you to rant about the "others" and about how downtrodden all us poor white people are. Since I explicitly wrote that I wasn't interested in reverse racism cases you're either too ignorant to comprehend plainly written words, or too filled with raging fanaticism to accept it.

RedDog Posted October 11, 2022 Report Share Posted October 11, 2022 Looking back a couple years stateside, we live in a modern western world where “All Lives Matter” was labelled as racist. I haven’t given a f*** since. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you speaking about me? This is a forum to discuss political issues. Yet it seems even asking for an example of something causes the hackles of certain people to rise to the point all they can do is fulminate and issue sanctimonious proclamations about the suspected motivation of whoever dares question them. It is like certain policy beliefs have reached the level of religious devotion among some people, and anyone daring to even question - not even disagree - but just question them or ask for evidence is committing blasphemy.

blackbird Posted October 11, 2022 Report Share Posted October 11, 2022 (edited) There is no evidence that Canada is systematically "racist" just as there is no evidence Canada committed genocide. These accusations are the leftist, NDP-liberal talking points. Edited October 11, 2022 by blackbird Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Projection is back folks! You're the one starting threads about this, not me. ? The fact that you started a thread to whine about the idea of "systemic racism" in Canada means that you obviously have a problem with it. If you're not interested in talking about "reverse racism", then what exactly is your problem with claims of the "systemic" version? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that's the one question they will not even attempt to answer. "RACISM" has been turned into a club. Like the accusation of "NAZI", these Libbies have nothing but accusations up their sleeves and apparently...even less in their heads. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s racist but white people deserve to be mistreated. It’s not about individual accountability anymore. I have long complained about race-based hiring in Canada, especially in public-facing positions with lots of interaction with citizens. The last 3 times I've called CRA, I couldn't understand a damn thing the person on the other end of the line was saying. I get that part. It's dumb to say there's no systemic racism in Canada though. I don't think you guys really understand what it means. You're looking for overt examples of racism or something. You could just go and look at how the average 3rd generation black Canadian makes ~35% less than non-visible minorities. Trying explaining that without saying something really dumb. https://www.ctvnews.ca/canada/five-charts-that-show-what-systemic-racism-looks-like-in-canada-1.4970352?cache=%3FclipId%3D86116%3FcontactForm%3Dtrue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm quite serious. People like you are directly responsible for keeping progress to a slow crawl. You're simply another barking sealion asking stupid questions that have been asked and answered a thousand times and ways. Unfortunately politicians and governments are easily distracted by sealions and often pause to listen which slows things down. Like I said it'll take generations.
