allthecanadianpolitics:

A new survey of Indigenous Hamiltonians says 41 per cent have experienced discrimination by the city at least some of the time, and 63 per cent feel it in the broader community.

The survey is part of Hamilton’s new urban Indigenous strategy, which aims to improve services to Indigenous residents.

Twenty-nine per cent of the 133 Indigenous survey respondents say they are “sometimes” discriminated against when they use city services. Six per cent said they experience it often, and another 6 per cent always.

In the broader community, 43 per cent said they feel it sometimes, while 13 per cent said often and 7 per cent said always. Most said the frequency of discrimination hasn’t changed much in the last two years.

How Raleigh Becket Changed His Tune Once He Met Miss Mako Mori: A Short Story

“You don’t understand, I’m a complicated hero with angst and man pai- OMG SHE’S PERFECT EVERYONE GET IN THE JAEGER WE’RE GOING MONSTER HUNTING”

Oh god I never noticed how his shoulders drop in that last gif. It looks like he is literally sighing over how perfect she is.

He LITERALLY sighs at her when she walks by. NEVER have I seen a main character hero who is an extremely masculine male be SO ADORING of a woman. He has literal stars in his eyes. He’s tipsy on admiration. He looks at her like she brought Christmas and puppies and chocolate cake.

I STAN MANLY MEN WHO ARE RESPECTFUL AND EMOTIONALLY AVAILABLE AND TOTAL EQUALS WITH THEIR LADY FRIENDS

Raleigh treats Mako like the capable adult that she is but he just worships her. He treats her correctly but he walks on air behind her with hearts in his eyes. Dude is crushing hard and still gets what needs to be done done.

What I love so much is that he falls for her but doesn’t use it as an excuse to protect her. So many stories have the guy deciding to wrap the woman he cares for up in cotton and tuck her away where she’ll be safe. Raleigh cares for her enough to actively help her achieve her goals, even if that means putting herself in harm’s way.

Canadian museum of immigration celebrating a Nazi escaping imprisonment and being given safe harbor, and posting this on Hanukkah too…

“Vincenz (right) served in the Gendarmerie against the Communists in #Austria during #WWII”

Hmm so we’re talking about That “Gendarmerie" that was absorped into the Ordnungspolizei, a militarized police force organized by the Nazi central government…Like, u know, the gestapo? Hmmmmmmm 🤔🤔🤔

“Taken as a political prisoner”

hmm ah so…the Nuremberg trials? 🤔🤔

Giving asylum to human garbage like this while denying Jewish refugees…heartwarming

Canada is just as racist as America.

The Canadian Museum of Immigration has apologized (for what its worth):

Pier 21 apologizes for tweet that puts man on wrong side of Nazi conflict

“this is why we need a platform with 0 censorship!” no its not actually, because this platform was ridden with fucking child porn

this entire mess is because tumblr didnt have any fucking moderation, and they let it get worse and worse until eventually they had to resort to dumbass overreaching solutions that dont solve anything. the solution isnt “judgement free uwu” social media. the solution is actually moderating your site to keep that shit off of it
