Racism and the CPC

What the actual fuck? I didnt know he'd said that. Isnt this the quiet part out loud.

This dude doesn't look like he's worked a day in his life. Kind of good to know the conservative wormy look doesn't know borders though.

I’m usually reluctant to judge a person I’ve never heard of before based on one quote with no context. Regardless, I’m pretty comfortable saying that this guy can go fuck himself.

LoL "hard work". He doesn't even know what "hard work" is, that little bitch.

"Yesterday on a day when the House and all Canadians were celebrating a new beginning, I made remarks that were hurtful and wrong," Poilievre said.

Buddy, it was more than just that day... lol

You don't need a PhD in political science to see Poilievre has been riding the Trump wave north of the border for the last 5-6 years.

Fuck that work ethic bullshit. Let's live like cats.

If the right does what it always does here and votes C no matter what, the Cons won't form another government for a generation. If they seriously elect a racist populist like this guy, from a party that voted to not admit climate change exists, Millennials and Gen Z will become ABC voters for life.

So if you need some kind of (very long term) silver lining, there's that.

The problem is they'll make housing worse, peoples rights worse, and 2SLGBTQ+ lives much worse, and cause even more climate crises than we have now. Not to mention absolutely gutting our healthcare.

But again, they'll only do it once.

This man says hard work while looking like he wouldn’t last 3 days without all the technology that the natives used to survive without. Bruh, we know what hard work is & how to do it, we just don’t give much of a fuck about doing it on your behalf.

So long as you’re still calling them “aboriginals” instead of I dunno like “The First Canadians,” then you’re making it crystal clear that you don’t care about them & you’re just mad that they aren’t letting you use, abuse, or manipulate them.

Canada has always watched everything their southern neighbor did to the native people and said "that's a great start, now hold my beer"

Serious question: what actually is the value of hard work?

June, 2008? Wtf man he’s had lots of time to grow up and change his views. Look at him. He’s a baby.

But anyway, I hope he doesn’t become PM regardless. He still seems like a shit.

DeSantis of the north. Good to see you in the Lemmys, Ulrich 🖖

It's also ridiculous that there is an idea among the white ruling class that Indigenous peoples merely need financial compensation for genocide. How do you compensate for that? They need decolonisation, namely ending of discrimination, recognition of their rights and sovereignty as Indigenous peoples, and work to repair the long-lasting damage that was done, such as the massive issues with mental health, addiction, crime and abuse within Indigenous communities that arose as a direct result of residential schools. Things that require deep rooted changes to society and will take generations, not just an apology and some hush money before never bringing it up again.

If you've paid any attention to Canadian politics at all, it's pretty obvious.

He looks like he has a skull good looking enough to curb stomp.

Something, something, work makes you free....

Dang! He sounds like one of ours.

Even if you accept their conceit aren't the First Nation's people entitled to compensation for all the other forms of genocide the Canadian government engaged in?

Haha what the fuck? I had no idea Canada had politicians like that.

Zamn, Canada broke my heart now 😭

That's not Pierre, Pierre does not have glasses.

Let's get Prime Minister black face to investigate this racism

2008 ... wasn't Trudeau still in blackface back then?

Could not agree more. So easy to say "give me things because Im " insert social points here"

I hope this community does not become a place for memes without any source to back them up.
