I am absolutely convinced he will walk away from this fine because that guy fucks. The sheer confidence with which he said "I like customes" or whatever was big-time "this guy fucks" energy.

Man I hate Canadian politics so much because it makes me react, "sigh, it could be worse I guess."



Oh and I decided that if somehow the NDP asks me to run in my local riding I'll accept on the following conditions:

1 - I say whatever I want, including a promise to break with the party if I feel the party line is not far enough left on heathcare, education, labour law, income inequality, white supremecy, or environmental votes, especially if it gets me booted out of the caucus.

2 - I'm going to immediately acknowledge being a recovered alcoholic who was really lovely in his 20s but didn't sexually assault anyone or do anything like wear blackface but I was a piece of poo poo anyway.

3 - That I'm allowed to publicly challenge other candidates in my or any riding to actual fights if I feel like it, and if they accept it's not going to be any namby pamby grabass Trudeau boxing match; that if I get my hands on a particularly vile right wing candidate that they're going to the hospital.

4 - That I'm going to put literally no effort or money into campaigning other than showing up for some debates specifically to antagonize everyone.


Those are my terms, NDP. Or gently caress it, even Liberals. Ball's in your court now.

The only reason the conservatives have never had a blackface scandal is that they're too racist to even consider pretending to be a minority.

Justin Trudeau arrives at the Swiss Ambassador's reception, only to trip over the rug and fall face first into the chocolate fountain. Still, he persisted.

some of my friends are trying the “Who are we to tell another culture that what they were doing 20 years ago is racist? we should try and understand where they were coming from!” dance. like who among us can understand the strange mysterious culture of Canada in 2001?

Unlike the much more enlightened 2006, when Trudeau knew to hide this from his vetting team.

It's a loving travesty that Canadians don't know that yes, we had slavery too. We only ended it because the British banned it everywhere in the empire. It's not even as though brave Canadians took a stand to abolish it or anything.

justin trudeau stands alone in the dimly lit hotel bathroom. the steam still hanging in the air from his shower. trembling he uses the low-thread count hotel towel to wipe the mirror

“just one more time justy, one more time and ill stop”

justins hand rubs slowly down the side of his face leaving a thick brown smudge behind

Humour (or more specifically: trolling) is a tool frequently used by fascists.

Robert Evans (of "It Could Happen Here" podcast fame) put out an "audiobook" called The War on Everyone. In the first episode he goes over Umberto Eco's definition of fascism, and notably adds the humour/trolling part as his own addendum for modern fascism. Ofcourse most examples of this are modern, but he also brings up hints of it from history.

Seconding - Robert Evans' It could Happen Here and Behind The Bastards podcasts are both great - if you haven't listened give 'em a shot.
