The nation said it shouldn’t have to defend the findings of Canada’s Truth and Reconciliation Commission, or the experiences of the Tk̓emlúps te Secwépemc, the Williams Lake First Nation, and other nations who have been “so severely castigated” by the book.

What is up with people trying to pretend Residential Schools didn't happen, or that they were happy fun times? This is so... embarrassing isn't even the word, it's much worse than that.

Cuz dumbass boomers can’t comprehend that racist and evil shit happened in the “good old days.” It fucks with their entire ego.

I had a good time, so times must've been good! people must be lying!

I guess? These are, of course, the same boomers that turn around and tell anyone younger than Gen X that if they can't afford a home, it's because they don't work hard enough. unfortunately, we're all people. the best we can do is try to be less idiotic than our parents.
