I don’t think you understand. We’ve checked out.

You guys are kinda on your own. I think we all prefer it that way right now.

Also, not being American is another weird wrinkle in all of this. American politics is seeping into Canadian politics, but we don’t have as many of the same problems around race and inclusion as you do.

But there are still conservatives north of the border who aren’t really caught up in what’s happening in Florida or California.

There is a difference between conservative, or right wing and Republican. You seem to think they are the same thing. Well I’m not a Republican

You’re the one on your own buddy. You can plug your ears down to the third knuckle, doesn’t change your delusions. You cant defend your position beyond a simple “Nu uhhh!” and now you’re running with your tail between your legs, screaming “big meanies!”

Dude there is plenty of racism in Canada.

Have you heard people talk about drunk homeless natives? Call your black coworker “intimidating”? Complain about drivers of any ethnicity? Talk about immigrants and refugees?

Do you interact with humans at all?

There is a lot of native racism, absolutely.

We don’t have the same history as the US does with racism though. If you think the US and Canada’s history of race relations is at all similar, you’re just ignorant about the subject.

Racism exists everywhere, yes. Not that it’s right, but it’s also not the same country to country.

Is japan racist? Yup, same with Sweden and Africa and the Caribbean and the UK and Egypt.

I’ve been to all of these places and interacted with the humans who live there.

But it’s not all the same.
