Aristides Posted May 3, 2023 Report Share Posted May 3, 2023 I sometimes think we will be much better off when everyone is brown but no doubt we all find a way to f**k that up as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christians aren't white - did you know that first nations make up the highest per capita percent of catholics for example? Catholics and christian are everywhere. Thats just a racist comment. Rome isn't really white, and the church of england doesn't represent Europeans that aren't' Christians. I'm not christian, but i am white so it doesn't have crap all to do with me. Did you think there were no jews in europe for example? Your comments are just ridiculous and bigoted. None of it represents being white. And you obviously are afraid to answer the questions posed to you so it's pretty obvoius you're know you're wrong and are simply hiding behind racism and bigotry.

The Christian Churches that were part of the colonization of North America sure were. Who ran the residential schools. Catholicism, Protestantism and Orthodoxy are all products of white European cultures. Christianity throughout the world is largely a result of missionaries from those churches. The Catholicism that dominates South, Central America, Mexico and Philippines were a result of Spanish and Portuguese colonization.

So - none of that is about being 'white'. ALL of that is about something else, even if white people participated. Got any more or was that it?

After all, were we not here first(sans Native Indians)and settled and built up this once great British European country. Do we not need to be also seen as the other people of color as just as important as those mentioned above? You can pick a day and celebrate it as a Day of Shame for the white Canadians.

Historically that may be true to a degree, slavery, human trafficking, certainly genocide on the west coast, but i don't see why dwelling on it would be helpful. They don't do that stuff anymore.

"they" are dead. There's no 'taking responsibility'. That's the kind of thing the libs tell first nations to make them feel like they care when they don't. (thanks for the donations!) The people who are alive today can look at how they can make things better. Or they can choose not to. Thats true regardless of skin colour. 38 minutes ago, cougar said: - the structure and general disintegration of our society Largely due to pandering to special interests and 'intersectionality'. the strucuture itself works well but it does require the people to be responsible and do their job to hold govt accountable, and that hasn't been happening. 38 minutes ago, cougar said: - the lack of culture There is a massive amount of culture - go out once in a while. 38 minutes ago, cougar said: - genocides in the past and even now No genocides have happened. Again - thats the kind of thing liberals tell first nations they believe in to make them feel better. And the first nations actually did commit genocides. Entire nations were wiped out cpmpletely and their language and heritage gone entirely along with most of their people, except for the slaves. And women of course - who were treated as tradable chattel like a horse. 38 minutes ago, cougar said: - destruction of the North American environment How is that a 'white' thing? The first nations are every bit as guilty, and frankly so is every other skin colour living in canada. Swing and misses on all counts. Sounds just a tad racist to be honest.

Stop the phony white shaming and bull. If you want to play the victim, or want to blame white people for things that happened back in history, you need mental health and spiritual counseling. Try your local Protestant church for help. The Romanist church can't help; they need help themselves. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And all your attitude does is give rise and power to the white supremacist orgs out there. With the possible exception of the chinese in some areas, white people have done more, achieved more, explored more, built more, invented more, conquored more, freed more and lifted more out of poverty than any other race by light years. It's a proud heratige that we should be doubling down on and seeing what we can do even greater and better in the future. We can learn from the past and do even greater things.

And it completely ruins their narrative if white people are given equal footing as black people or Asian people or Hispanics etc. Here's a hint kiddo - if it's childish and !diotic for whites, then its' just as childish and !diotic for the rest of the races. 2 hours ago, BeaverFever said: Go start a thread complaining about why there are no battered husband shelters Funny story there. there's actually a big need for that. Men are abused even more than women by all studies, and many don't know how to deal with it and want to get away from it without fighting back but have no where to go. A guy opened a men's shelter like that in Canda and there was a lot of need for it. However - women's groups hounded him and harassed him night and day because they were worried federal funds for women's shelters might start going to men's shelters. In the end it got so bad he killed himself for that reason. OF course - he was just a disposable white male that we're all supposed to hate according to your type so no biggie right?

Yeah -sorry that wiki entry is both wrong and pretty bloody bias if you read it. It's got some other glaring inaccuracies and 'creative interpretations' as well. I guess that's why you didn't link to it. In fact it wasn't till much later that it became actually compulsory. 1920 - Duncan Campbell Scott, Deputy Superintendent of Indian Affairs, makes residential school attendance compulsory for children between the ages of 7 and 15. https://nctr.ca/exhibits/residential-school-timeline/ That's when it became mandatory. Before then it was optional. And originally it was not even particularly desired. Macdonald wasn't keen on spending the money. Which is why he got the church to do it.
