But it’s perfectly fine if it’s that bitch Clinton and her emails 10 days before the election ...right?

Kim TallBear nails it. It’s colonialism in the same way wearing headdresses to festivals and buying shitty ‘Navajo’ print clothes from forever 21 is. It’s the same ideology that killed our children in Residential schools and is still killing them in care. It’s our missing and murdered women. It takes our narrative out…

I swear every morning since the election I’ve woken up and had the horrible realization that Trump is going to be president over and over. It’s like the movie Groundhog Day without the comedy.

One of the things that became clear to me as a Canadian politics researcher is that the idea of who represents an Indigenous community in any respect is almost never a remotely casual thing (despite the plethora of other differences between the various communities/nations). So I suspect this might have been have been…

Boyden admits that he wrongly identified himself as Métis in the past because he thought it was a general term for someone of mixed European and Indigenous heritage, he didn’t realize it is a distinct identity. The fact that he described himself as Métis for years without bothering to educate himself about what that…

I found this commentary useful.

Indigenous identity is not about DNA. This is what aggravates me so much about those fucking DNA-Ancestry commercials where people find out they’re “Native American” (just that, not what tribe, or clan, or anything else), and suddenly they’re pulling dreamcatchers out of their ass.

It sounds like even if he isn’t lying, there are still real issues the native community, especially the women, have with his conduct and attitude and he has a track record of ignoring these valid and politely-given concerns. He seems like a bit of an ass either way.

Yeah, I don’t think nepotism is an issue; I think CORRUPTION is an issue. Hillary Clinton working on universal health care in the 1990's was not about finding ways to make money for herself or her family.

“Don’t be bitchy,” “you should be smart enough...” “calm down,” willful obtuseness, and “ooooh why so serious??”

1 - As Adjra pointed out, she led many different healthcare initiatives and committees on a state level, which to me shows she has the qualifications to lead on a national level. I’ll turn the question around to you - what qualifications do *YOU* think someone should have to lead national health policy?

Dude, this is really sad. Let me help you.

You’re not very good at this. Your failure to even attempt to support your own position and trying to smear me is super obvious. Why should I give Kushner a break? Tell me. Come on.

You said “I don’t think it makes sense” in direct response to my comment that he was unqualified. Then you said “you don’t give Kushner a break because you don’t relate to him or like him.”. So, why do you give him “a break”? Stop trying to flip this. You choose to defend him. Go for it. Your silence speaks volumes.

P.S. The next time you are so shocked at receiving a “bitchy” response, you might want to check yourself first. You: “I think that you are giving Hillary Clinton a break because you relate to her and like her and you don’t give Kushner a break because you don’t relate to him or like him.” You don’t know shit about me…

Good try, but you need to come with something for Kushner. What’s wrong? Can’t find anything?

1) Donald Trump is a blatant, longtime racist and misogynist. I don’t think the idea that if you voted for him you are a racist and/or misogynist is far off. I wouldn’t phrase it that way myself - I would say that, at the least, anyone who voted for him is at least OKAY with racism and misogyny. And at this point,…

“I’m anti-PC” is a PC way of saying “I’m racist.”

But if I say that, I’m an SJW?

Whatever, just mute the annoying people on Twitter and get back to helping us ruin the capitalist class.

Anyone who says political correctness is the country’s number one problem (honestly, that its a problem at all) is a fucking idiot. The country’s biggest problem is NOT “I can’t say any dumb thing without recourse!”

I think a lot of these people think that now that Trump has been elected that they’ll never have to hear about anyone who isn’t a white guy again. Gay marriage is over and women in positions of power will just step down so white guys can take their places. They don’t understand that shit isn’t going to happen. They…
