Semi-related, here's an artical written about a James Baldwin essay, written over 50 years ago. It outlines how social enlightenment, as a whole, from both sides, is needed to move forward, harmoniously.

TBH, I don't wear a poppy... poking yourself with the pin all the time... I just put a 5 or 10 in the box and leave the poppies. Just going to lose it anyways.

putting aside his controversial history, i'm probably one of the few but i didn't find anything offensive about what he said recently, people are so freaking sensitive these days you literally have to watch what you say anytime you are out in public. it's ridiculous. so ron mclean who was nodding his head in agreement during the segment, after your 'friend' is fired, you decide to apologize and decry the comments as discriminatory and hurtful etc. riiiight.

You know everything needs to be sugar coated.

It's so refreshing meeting Irish, Scot, Oceanic visitors. You can speak matter of factly and zero fucks are given. Not to mention the abundant use of the word, cunt, by both men and women.

I grew up watching Don, I didn't mind him but over the years his rants were the same old every weekend. He couldn't remember half the players names he was ranting about, he was always turning to Ron to fill in words because he couldn't complete a sentence and mixing politics and hockey never made sense to me but I was also under the impression that Don was going to eventually make a run for office but that never materialized.

And people bashing Ron would probably do the same thing if your job and career was on the line. He finally got his job back from Stroumboulopoulos so I'm pretty sure he wasn't going to piss off the suits.

Huh? I think the people Harvey Specter quoted are bashing Don Cherry, not supporting him...

No, Don Cherry supporters.

Quote:
A Manitoba-based journalist has spoken out about the racist abuse he has recently received after he ended up getting dragged into the Don Cherry "you people" scandal. After Don Cherry’s poppy rant got him fired from Sportsnet last weekend, CBC Manitoba reporter Ahmar Khan has taken to Twitter to share how he ended up involved in the scandal, and examples of the xenophobic emails he has been receiving since the drama unfolded.

On November 11, news broke that Hockey Night in Canada host Don Cherry had been fired from his post, following a controversial comment he made about Remembrance Day and immigrants wearing poppies.

Referring to immigrants as “you people,” Cherry accused Canada’s newcomers of “coming here” and “loving our way of life,” but not wearing poppies on Remembrance Day.

After Cherry’s comments were broadcast over the weekend, the sheer volume of complaints received by the Canadian Broadcast Standards Council (CBSC) ended up shutting down their website, and the CBSC site had to stop accepting submissions.

Now, a Manitoba-based Canadian journalist has revealed how the scandal has ended up impacting him, and the hate mail he has received is pretty shocking.

On November 11, CBC reporter Ahmar Khan called out the Toronto Sun on Twitter for including his criticism of Cherry in their article about the drama, noting that it had led to an unusual influx of racist emails in his inbox.

Khan explained, “Here's one of the many comments I received after Joe Warmington decided to put my name in his article,” going on to share several screenshots of the awful messages he had recently been sent.

One of the emails stated, “You honestly think a less-white Canada is better? I have proof it is not. If every black or Indian left Canada we would be way better off.”

Another email said, "Take you're [sic] ugly race and ways and leave already ... You will never be a Canadian."

In a follow-up tweet, Khan added, “Let's not forget the person who told me he lives right next to an Army Base and for me to 'tread lightly on him and other Canadians'”.

After sharing the snippets from the horrific emails, Khan went on to add, “Please don't tell me this is not Canadian. It is and always has been what some Canadians are like."

"It can be changed, but acknowledging the existence of xenophobia and racism needs to come first,” he explained.

There are opinions that range from mild and civilized to batshit crazy on pretty much any divisive topic, doesn’t mean those people are all grouped together or have equally-valid opinions.

Looks like sportsnet has found a more politically correct replacement.

She supports Modi and gets a lot of support from Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh an ultra-right-wing violent Hindu nationalist group.

Sikhs, Muslims, Kashmiris, and others don't like Modi or the RSS.

Thanks I'll look into it. I know there's a lot of BS out there about here, so it'll be hard to find legit stuff

Also I am not familiar with Indian politics, so I have no idea how bad supporting Modi actually is.

Modi was banned from entering the US until he became P.M.

Quote:
In 2005, Modi, an ardent Hindu nationalist and rising political star, was denied a U.S. visa over accusations that he failed to stop religious pogroms in which hundreds were killed, mostly Muslims, in the Indian state where he was serving as chief executive.

OK and how is she supporting him? Funding? Troops? It seems political more than anything, like they want to have strong relationships with India

probably not, but her actions and russian aligned talking points sure make her look like a puppet of Putin though.

If you are trying to defend Fox's news, you are completely delusional to "facts"....I get it, you want to hear what you want to hear regardless of fact based news reporting......

There is allot of bullshit out there, if you look for it. CBC, MSNBC, and CNN are actually News Stations VS Fox News which is propaganda machine.

Yes it's important that people get their propaganda from the 'correct' outlets
