There is no denying that horrible shit happened at the residential schools, but the propaganda surrounding this detracts from the actual issue.

Now, activists want it to be against the law to question anything.

If they get their way.

This video would be illegal to post.

The issue with virtual signaling and woke rage is that those who use it, for the most part have never had power of any kind and as a result wield it poorly.

An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind.

Big picture-wise, Murray isn’t just asking for more money and state benefits. Her arguments point to the withdrawal of the Canadian state from Indigenous bubbles of sovereignty, which currently exist only in the minds of decolonial scholar-activists — or permanent compensation for occupying these (again, fictional) bubbles of sovereignty.

If you read her words carefully, you’ll find there is no end-point to the genocide she claims is ongoing. Genocide is a product of the interaction between the colonial state and its Indigenous subjects, which means the demand for concessions will never end. What’s demanded is an endless stream of tribute payments.

She probably won’t get it right away. But don’t be surprised when the special interlocutor’s final report becomes a much-cited footnote used to support future “evidence-based” acts of decolonization.
(Oh, and if this re-education campaign makes anyone feel bad, even their emotions need adjustment)

She wants to bring in the International Criminal Court to investigate Canada and possibly prosecute government officials for “enforced disappearances.”

She also wants “long-term, sustainable, flexible” funding to repatriate bodies in graves which have yet to be found — more of it, that is.

“In alignment with Indigenous self-determination and sovereignty, the federal government must support the Survivors, Indigenous families, and communities who are leading or wish to lead, these investigations, without interference or intimidation,” she writes. As of March, $217 million has gone towards the grave search; no bodies have been recovered, etc…

Say that out loud in today's climate, and people will call you racist.

She doesn't actually want to exhume any bodies, or indeed even let archaeologists explore the claimed graves. What she wants is a combined make work projects where real jobs are scarce, and to keep white guilt alive for future funding demands.
