No surprises here. A very predictable response. Like father, like son. Default regressive thinking seems to be a common trait in many of the well educated indigenous activists which is neither beneficial to them or their people. There is a limit to the amount of mileage that playing the victim card can garner and I have to think most Canadians have reached ground zero. We had one indigenous family in our small community in the 1950s that integrated completely and was accepted without question or prejudice. The two boys made friends immediately and the younger daughter married the son of a long term residence. It speaks very well of the importance of assimilation.
That was an excellent article which I enjoyed reading very much. Thanks for sharing !!!
One cannot expect to get anything but a propaganda line from Woke apparatchiks in the same way & for the same reasons as one won't from Putin's men.
The Woke are in the business of maintaing & reinforcing their regime in the same way that Nazi spokesmen used/ imagined Jewish perfidy & conspiracies to justify their own behavior.
And they need to keep bolstering their narrative because their regime & their cultural policies have not been traveling well, are not stable & not enjoying the legitimacy they once had.
The Woke attack on the civilizational & reproductive heartlands of the society this humanities trained ascendancy is supposed to be serving is a result of its own unsustainable incompetence & malfeasance, which now threatens its authority as a social administrative class.
This ascendancy has been responsible for a protracted deregulation of the social system & the privatization of social accountability in the name of liberty & rights stripped of responsible agency, which has systematically wrecked this essential infrastructure it is supposed to be stewarding.
The bizarre behavior that is starting to irrupt out of the ruins of a once viable social culture has to be blame shifted & diverted to stop it coming back to its regime authors.
Any excuse, no matter how lame & transparently self serving will do in a storm, especially if it is made possible by control of most of the means of social information & administration, & repeated often enough.
All totalitarians over the last 100 years have done the same. And the authoritarian shrillness, irrational mantras & violence towards opposition that accompanies it are par for the course.
Intergenerational trauma exists, I know first hand. But when you keep looking backwards rather than forwards, you remain in the trauma. I'm so sorry for the way that Indigenous people were treated but what I wish for them is clean drinking water, excellent internet, learning opportunities, and the ability to reclaim pride in their culture. Virtue signalling by clueless judges just encourages everyone to stay stuck.
Fair enough. According to news reports, as an Indigenous offender, Sanderson participated in a counselling program intended to help him reconnect with Indigenous culture and traditional values as well as a “high intensity program” that included dozens of sessions and ceremonies intended to help offenders control their emotions, improve their social skills and develop goals and healing plans.
If we're discussing trauma, the result of Myles Sanderson's release on parole was trauma. The surviving victims and their families are scarred for life. Blaming any other hypothesized causes for the mass murder is pure conjecture. If there was any more than a slight correlation re: intergenerational trauma, Japan and China would be one of the most traumatized countries on earth, after the firebombing of Tokyo and the two atomic bombs, and in China, the Japanese invasion followed by the depredations of Mao Zedong.
Lets not forget the Jewish victims of the real Holocaust. They made the saying, "what doesn't kill you, makes you stronger" a reality. Never heard much comparative whining from this group.
Even closer and more comparable, the "boat people" who came to Canada after unspeakable horrors in the 70s-80s have done very well. I would bet highly their kids have greater incomes than the average white.
I don't believe in the "Look what they made me do!!!" excuse whenever anyone who isn't a rich white man commits a crime. They chose to do what they did, they weren't forced.
They weren't zombies possessed by demons... that's a medieval mindset, however, that seems to be the point of view of the identity politics people. On another point, I don't think it's been confirmed that the Sanderson Brothers specifically had direct relatives who attended residential schools.
There are few papers today willing to print anything but indigenous propaganda. Our own local weekly has allowed local indigenous activists to spew their lies in op eds but anyone on the other side of the fence is immediately censored.
