Canada's soy boy in chief displays his wokeness by correcting a woman in a town hall meeting for using the sexist word "mankind." Trudeau Lectures Woman For Using ‘Mankind’ Instead Of ‘People-Kind’ But wait a minute, I thought the politically correct version of mankind was humankind? Nah it's not because it contains man inside the word huMAN. That's sexist too, and it won't fly in this woke society we live in.
old news bud... he's a young guy...allowed to make a few gaffs....no one was hurt.......better than what you have down there by a long shot
I don't think he insists on changing the word, people. But by mentioning it like that in public he definitely bring it under everyone's attention. Some people (like OP) are just tired of it, they wanna provoke their way and feel entitled to it. But if someone like Trudeau does it they act more butthurt than any 'snowflake' would to OPs nonsense. Hey man, if you feel entitled to do it all the time (also with charged convictions you don't 100% mean but put in a certain way to garner attention) so can others. Even public people. You really don't understand you're both doing the same? Just with a diff POV
From the same article: "Trudeau also talked about his “rehabilitation” program for returning ISIS terrorists, saying they were just like the “Italian families [who] settled in Montreal in the postwar years.”" That's not a gaffe. That's the absence of brains.
I would say it depends on the details. Besides, it may be an unfavorable idea but he's not a dictator. If the majority is against it it will be abandoned or revised. And is it fair for people in Syria or Iraq to have to deal with them? If anyone is entitled to yell 'go the fuck back to your own country instead of being a terrorist here' it are citizens from such countries. If you think Canada has a terrorism problem... look further
No he's a moron. How do you compare ISIS foreign fighters to families from post-war Italy? Seriously?
I'm not sure on which facet he was concentrating when he said that. But he doesn't seem a moron to me. Maybe you already made your mind up about him because you suffer a bit from anti-pc tunnelvision like OP?
Oh, come on! You don't need any facets to understand that statements like these are idiotic. Trudeau wants to set up a rehabilitation program for ex-ISIS foreign fighters. Ok so far and I can even see a few reasons why it could be a positive thing. But then he gets the usual backlash and so he chooses to sell his idea by downplaying perceived danger. And in order to do that he tells people ex-ISIS foreign fighters are just like immigrants from Italy. That is the absence of brains. What's anti-pc tunnel vision?
please quote trudeau and not the article.....context is everything fact is we have a great country and its getting better...we have zero to be ashamed of with our PMO..only pride lets be honest here...there is no leader of a country that y'all love...you guys shitstorm everybody
You're right. The article actually overly simplified and misrepresented what Trudeau said and I failed to dig deeper. It's probably that I hear so much hogwash from politicians these days that I just took it at face value.
If saying something silly like peoplekind is the worst sin you can fault him for, I think Trudeau is doing ok
