The Nazification of the World

White supremacists showed up to disrupt Calgary’s Pride March, got instantly owned, and are now extremely mad online

Mockery works. Use whatever you can to humiliate and silence white supremacists - if we can stop them from gaining critical mass, we stop them from killing.

PostMedia, which controls 70% of Canadian newspapers, decided to go full nazi for some reason. When called on it, they tried to memory hole their actions - but not before printing it and circulating it.

What was the editorial about?

It was…

Mark Hecht: Ethnic diversity harms a country’s social trust, economic well-being, argues professor
OPINION: Canada should say goodbye to diversity, tolerance and inclusion to rebuild trust in one another and start accepting a new norm for immigration policy — compatibility, cohesion and social trust.

It’s now

Apology to our readers
The Vancouver Sun is committed to promoting and celebrating diversity, tolerance and inclusion.

Yes, I just saw the apology, but no mention if what they were apologizing for.

That editorial was some blatant intolerance.

If you exclude everyone you’re not compatible with, then everyone remaining is obviously perfectly compatible!1

1Your mileage may vary, depends on the definition of “compatible”, depends on the definition of “everyone”, depends on the definition of “remaining”…

The obvious1 problem2 being that there is always someone, somewhere, that some people will think of as “incompatible”…

1 obvious to anyone who thinks about it for more than a second
2 sadly, some people think of it more as a feature than a bug… until they find themselves on the wrong side of the equation.

What do you mean? They’re only going to come for the socialists and maybe the trade unionists.

How the fuck do they think that’s going to happen at this point? Everyone thinks it won’t affect them (unless they know it absolutely will affect them), and then they get to find out they were fighting for their own exclusion.

I saw yesterday the Con candidate in my riding is Nadirah Nazeer. First line of her bio from the official Con site: “Nadirah has been proud to call Canada home since immigrating from Mauritius 29 years ago.”

I scrolled through the list of Ontario candidates to find that, and while there are a lot of white people, there are a lot of not-white people, including at least one Sikh.

There’s also a lot of white people with non-WASP names – people who still get referred to as “ethnic” in certain Conservative circles (I know because it’s been lobbed at me).

I just want to ask them all, what is it like to belong to a party that hates you?

Depends on when + where they’re from - by the third gen or 40 years, most canucks are down with hating on Newer Canadians. Same phenomena as in the US: Cubanos joined the GOP to hate on Mexicanos and Colombianos.

I’ve seen this happen to my family in real time. My grandparents were pretty cool and involves in community cultural centers. Their kids - with one exception - grew up to be jerks. The grandkids are pretty racist.

Because dipshits keep pretending life is a zero sum game, there will always be dorks who try to make life harder for others. They need to break the cycle.

probably refers to a trading regimen, or a policy on monopolies, advocated by progressives in the 1920s. Or more cynically, one could point to a “progressive” eugenics policy, or a “progressive” immigration policy. That is, of course, if you still believe in nominative determinism in politics.

Lately I’ve been thinking a lot about the 1939 version of the Huchback of Notre Dame.

Gypsy — Why do you stop us?

Soldier at city wall — Because no gypsies can enter Paris any longer without a permit. It’s the new law.

Gypsy — If the others are permitted to, why can’t we?

Soldier at city wall —They’re Frenchmen. You’re gypsies. Foreigners.

Gypsy — Foreigners! You came yesterday. We come today.

An even better example of that would be the PPC slate for Brampton.

As bad as this is, the article is a little bit misleading. He was elected “Ortsvorsteher” and calling him a mayor is a bit of a stretch. He represents a dependent part of a small town and a major reason why they didn’t find anyone else is that it is a bullshit office without any tangible rights or responsibilities to speak of. His job is to make sure that his neighborhood is not forgotten by the actual town council not quite a mile away.
