47 Replies to “Two Americans Share Their Thoughts on Trudeau’s Blackface”

  1. I never once thought of wearing blackface, much less wearing it three (3!!!) times over twenty years.

    The first time I remember seeing black face on contemporary people was on “All in the Family” in the 1970’s. It was the episode with the birth of Gloria’s and Meathead’s child. Archie was wearing blackface at the hospital, as his lodge was performing a minstrel show. My Father, who was much like the Archie Bunker character in background and out look, pointed out how unacceptable black face was, and in quite colorful terms. He pointed out that black face and minstrel shows were racist and absolutely unacceptable in the 1960’s & 1970’s.

    Only a sheltered wealthy liberal safe in his Liberal Cocoon would think that Black Face was acceptable even once, much less three times over twenty years. Why didn’t anyone at either of the schools he appeared in blackface at pull the poor sheltered idiot aside and explain that Black Face was unacceptable? Maybe because for all their liberal piety, they are just as dismissive and racist towards minorities as Justin is? To many liberals, minorities are groups or blocs that are looked on as victims and quotas, not as real people like them. They are too often viewed as individual tokens and when viewed as groups are treated as grievance blocs to be mollified and appeased?

      1. “Never once did his kind, caring, racially sensitive friends and colleagues ever say to him, ‘Blackface is racist and dismissive of black people, maybe you shouldn’t wear it again.’? Or didn’t he recognize the good advice?”

        Or better still: “Grow up, you silly twat. Do you know how ridiculous you look and how this makes us all look?”

      2. I’ll skip the preamble to go to the point I’d like to follow on to your thoughts.
        He behaved like the class clown all his life likely because he was seeking attention. He was likely doing that because in reality he was neglected by those closest to him both of whom where likely too self absorbed with their own lives that the only time he got attention was when he was used as a political prop or as leverage against the other spouse. Naturally when in these circumstances should there be considerable wealth available, it would afford that adequate protection would be put in place to protect justin, or in some cases silence any outward criticism. After a while this kind of arrangement would be Justin’s idea of normal. The other side of this theory is that opportunistic individuals would attach themselves to Justin like parasites posing as friends. These parasites would if left to their own efforts be relegated to entry level employment for their working years. But as long as they play along with maintaining the bubble around the anointed one, they could whisper anything in the Sockmonkey’s ear and he would buy the snake oil hook line and sinker.
        So this is not a case of racism.
        This is because Pierre and Maggie neglected their son and outsourced his upbringing.
        Much the same way justin and sophie are now repeating with their children.

        1. When Pierre and his insane mother weren’t neglecting him, they were telling him that he would be Prime Minister one day. That’s this guy’s biggest problem. He’s been told his entire life that he would be Prime Minister… by everyone… over and over again. Imagine the mind job that would do to someone. He basically spent his youth (no pun intended) traipsing all over the world, living it up, and then decided in his mid-thirties that he should start on that little project to become Prime Minister. And the backroom boys made it happen.

    1. Today’s Calgary SUN – and hopefully all SUN newspapers across Canada – has a photo spread of Trudeau as “Most prolific Canadian actor ever: ULTIMATE EDITION”. 30 thumbnail photos of himself in various garbs, from soldier to Indian chief to paraplegic and beyond. Beyond words how stupid this idiot is. And by extension, those who continue to support him.

      1. I’d prefer they publish a list of his lies as Prime Minister.

        Interestingly some media commentators are starting to use the word liar when describing Trudeau.

        1. Well they have no qualms about using “liar” on Trump, it’s about time they start using it on Trudeau.

      2. Yes… ‘those who support him.’ Father-in-law is in that category and I can’t even look him in the eye anymore. As stupid as Trudeau is, you have to be incredibly dumb to continue to support him at this point.

  2. Both of these gentlemen have very good points, yes it was wrong, insensitive, and racist but lets not forget not to get too cocky or smug like the liberals do. We all know if it had been someone who is Conservative or non liberal they would be destroyed by the left. Having said that, I firmly believe these 3 things; 1) Trudeau is a racist who will blame anyone or thing for his short comings, 2) there is probably more disgusting things which may come out in the next couple of weeks involving Trudeau…3) Trudeau and his ilk are completely lacking in morals, integrity, ethics, honesty and are as it now seems racists….. wonder what new revelations will be coming. .. Steve O

    1. Racists…of course they are.
      But more so, they are fascists…the lot of them including those brain dead psychotics who support them

    2. Racist… yep, of course he’s a racist, just like Daddy… although despite the ample evidence of Peeairs racist nature and his bigoted legislation he is consistently given a free ride and most people pretend to not notice Peeairs open bigotry and still do… “Biculturalism”, Multiculturalism” if people can’t see these Liberal Government social engineering schemes as inherently bigoted than they’re either deliberately obtuse, living in denial or just plain stupid. Justine is a racist/bigot and so was his deranged Father.

  3. I’m with Jericho on this one. He’s a f**king idiot.

    As we all know, Trudeau doesn’t care about anyone but himself. He’s always been able to do whatever he’s wanted to do. He must be the center of attention. And if he ever does something wrong, its somebody else’s fault. This time its also not his mistake, but the whole country’s because #CanadaIsRacist. Now we (whitey) all have to apologize because we’re all oppressors … and then vote PM CarbonFace.

  4. I agree with most of what both these gentlemen stated.

    As the white dude said, we conservatives need to remain intellectually superior to the left. Wearing dark make-up for a costume does not automatically make someone a racist! Racially insensitive, sure, but as definitive proof someone hates blacks… or Arabs… bullshit. Even in the fantasy world of progressives it really doesn’t, they just pretend it does when the juicy opportunity to attack a political foe arises. We have seen this proven repeatedly. So sad to see so many conservatives not hesitate to jump on the despicable PC bus too, when it serves their political purposes.

    Of all the info we’ve witnessed so far, I am most struck by Trudeau’s own words. He repeatedly stated himself that these actions were UNFORGIVABLE and that the CONTEXT of wearing ‘blackface’ is IRRELEVANT. If it truly is an unforgivable act, then why is he standing in front of the world asking us for forgiveness? Sure, unforgivable for anyone but a Laurentian elitist. What a three-faced, hypocritical little prick.

    Justin Trudeau is an asshole…. and maybe the single most dishonest, arrogant and corrupt western politician I have EVER witnessed.

  5. Critical to understanding Alinsky is that conservatives don’t have to believe or apply the rules.

    “Make the enemy live up to its own book of rules. If the rule is that every letter gets a reply, send 30,000 letters. You can kill them with this because no one can possibly obey all of their own rules”

    It means exactly that. It doesn’t mean conservatives apply the rules; it means the Left does. Conservatives just have to pressure them to do so. It creates trouble within their ranks.

    It’s a subtle point, but is often missed.

  6. One more point…

    If not for the power of the bought and paid for Canadian media, I believe this scandal would have been the end of Trudeau’s dictatorship… and yet they are still free to continue their traitorous partisan ways, certainly unchallenged by the go-along-to-get-along ‘leader’ of the opposition.

    I consider Scheer a waste of political skin and I am pissed at how he is letting yet another juicy Liberal scandal slip through his inept fingers. I have been saying since he won the CPC leadership that I think he ran only because the CINO’s running the party promised him he would never have to worry about actually becoming PM, himself. To me, he seems utterly dispassionate about leading this nation, let alone having the will to make the tough decisions to change it’s direction.

  7. We could parse the blackface and how its racist or whatever, till the cows come home.
    Here’s the meat.
    The soft mushy headed voters that got the Sockmonkey elected get their infotainment or current events, not from the news or the print journalism. They get their information from what they call comedy/talk shows.
    Every one of them reported on this and gave unflattering editorials on the Sockmonkey. Thats the information that is now in their head. I doubt that these voters will decide to vote for someone else but the odds now that they will be casting a ballot at all is greatly diminished.
    The enthusiasm for the Sockmonkey has evaporated.

  8. Why has no one in the media asked Trudeau if any of his students were there as he was groping a female and dressed in Blackface as a turbaned man. And what kind example against racism did he think he was setting as their teacher then.

  9. The Hypocrisy of those of the Communist bent (blackface is mockery). # 1 Jericho had the front end right, but left out the “Irredeemable Basket of Deplorables” that is used to SHAME anyone who doesn’t hold whitey responsible for all the Sins in History…SJW is woke not

    In Canada the Indians are demanding reparation ( Aboriginal Title) for ALL Crown lands… The shame & social justice demands all Canadian pay homage & worship the noble savage….Culture Genocide in Spades

    In the USA black Reparations are on the 6th round…..given that most recipients were the Foreign imported Blacks who had zero right to benefits meant for American Slave reparations….How many Blacks in the Socialist Cluster have an American Slave connection… I would guess that the 20% in the failing Urbane Cities are legitimate “Original” Americans

    The Socialists/Communists don’t believe in redemption/Forgiveness.. It’s their hammer….

  10. They both make the point that Trudeau is not racist, but has condemned others for less.

    But Jericho Green has at 10 minutes 10 sec in, what should be, the CPC election slogan:
    “If you could turn a p**sy into a person, it would be Justin Trudeau”

    So yeah, thats my fav.

  11. Personally, I don’t consider “blackface” insensitive or racist. Next, you’ll be telling me that tanning is racial appropriation. Your actions while wearing blackface or your motivation for wearing blackface can end up being racist. But, the physical coloring of your skin is not an insensitive or racist act.

    When you crawl down the rabbit hole of political correctness it escalates. This concept is just part of that slippery slope. On a positive note, it’s playing itself out mostly due to parties of perpetual victimization calling EVERYTHING racist. You want me to be punctual? That’s racist. You want me to use proper English in a job interview? That’s racist.

    Bottom line. I have absolutely no problem with Trudeau’s black face events, and I can assure you I’d like to see him gone as much as the next guy.

  12. OK, another point…

    If Conservative leaders in this country have any balls at all, they will make sure there is at least one person to sing out “Day O” at every single one of the Minstrel PM’s public appearances.

    1. Most Excellent Point, CA..
      You know what really ticks me off in this whole scenario?
      JT has done SO MUCH to ruin this country in the last 4 years.
      Only pro-abortion candidates. West coast tanker ban as Saudi tankers ply the St. Lawrence. Pipelines bought to avoid conflict with ecoweenies and natives. Importing illegals and housing them in hotels with 3 squares a day, while Canadians are living under bridges. Omar’s $$…pissing in the face of the American widow. On the July 1st and 4th weekend. Making Alberta pipelines impossible, but approving Quebec ones. Sneaking in the continuation of transfer payments, which more than anything will tear this country apart. Lying about the govt of Indai, which led to them cancelling farm imports the next day. China. Not showing up for Pacific trade meetings.
      SNC, groping…the list could go on forever. And THIS is all that matters? What about the lives destroyed, the jobs lost, the little girl in Vancouver murdered by one of JT’s imports? The legalizing of pot, and how it was botched? The proposed carbon tax, which will relegate us to 3rd world status? Freeland participating in an anti-Trump event during NAFTA negotiations?
      After the complete fiasco and malicious degrading of our country and our citizenry for 4 years, THIS is all the media and opposition has?
      Sorry for the length of the rant, but I care a lot more about my neighbor’s lost jobs, or that my retirement dollars are going to be worth less than toilet paper, or about the murders committed in diverse neighborhoods, than I do about somebody’s offended feelings.
      At least in the States, much of the public woke up to the fact that the MSM was covering for one side. The fact that JT is a moron, with the media shilling for him, has been on public display for at least 6 years. Will any Canadians wake up to the fact that the media has been lying to them, and actively resist the attempts to sway them?
      I wanna move to the States. At least half the population there can think for themselves. Or think at all.

      1. Indeed, first timer, the Groper and Chief has committed so many transgressions, it’s damn near impossible to even remember many of them.

        One of my ‘favorites’ is how quickly he jumped on the fake story from the little muslim girl who lied about having her hijab yanked. The story was only hours old, not even yet investigated by local cops, and yet he couldn’t wait to exploit the story nationally because it was perfect for their evil-whiteman narrative. What a slimy asshole, he showed no shame or remorse when he was almost immediately proven DEAD WRONG. Nope, he seems to save those phony teary reactions strictly for the times he is caught out being a fake feminist or a real racist.

        canucked, I love that idea.

        I wonder how the law works on this. If the Liberal Party voluntarily gives me a campaign sign and I ‘customize’ it and then display it on my personal property, surely that gives them no right to trespass to remove it. Ha, with the contentious nature of politics, there’s probably already a precedence set, somewhere.

  13. Far more amusing than the blackface incident, honestly, is the relevation that the future feminist prime minister tried shamelessly to get Faith Goldy drunk so she’d bend over for him at the Chateau Laurier.

    Fortunately Faith has some self-respect and wasn’t the sort of alley-cat that Justin was used to enjoying at Young Liberal events.

  14. We mustn’t forget.

    Justin Trudeau could not care less that he won’t hold himself to his own standards.

    In his mind, he doesn’t have to.

    Once he realized that he could get away with what he did in the SNC-Lavalin affair, this next bit was small potatoes.

    They’re all learning experiences, you see.

  15. They, many say, that they should not be like them. There is something to that and many times it sounds really stupid, vis certain Scheer.
    True.
    However out of necessity the scorn should be heaped on the airhead for his superior attitude, his world class hypocrisy and other such.
    The guy is not racist when it comes to different shades, he is racist when it comes to those that disagree with his ideology even though is lily white.

    Also there is a necessity to spread far and wide and sear it (heh) in the memory so the media cartel and socialist commentariat can’t hide it.
    There is absolute necessity to do that.
    If you do it with facts, without malice, superior argument, you “win”, (what ever that means).

  16. I don’t think the act nor the intent was racist. The problem is I may not say that under Justin’s rules because being Caucasian I am inherently racist. It behoves me to understand given the plethora of ignorant decisions this guy has made how anyone would find him suitable to lead a country or for that matter have a job with more responsibility than a Walmart greeter.

  17. I think Justin’s actions are so tone deaf they are as racist as anyone in the Klan. How does anyone miss the lesson I was taught 30 or 40 years earlier. My father attended a black majority school and we would have black neighbors visit. If I would have shown disrespect, I wouldn’t have been able to sit down for a week on my paddled ass. Too bad Justin didn’t have parents.

  18. the 2 youtubes?
    pages of comment. a lot of them very stinging.
    the ‘nicest’ one PLAY BY YOUR OWN RULES.
    indeed.

    Im beginning to think *this one* aint goin away soon. esp if yet another vaudeville garb shows up.
    at which point the TURDoo 2.0 will be the one going away.

  19. migawd.
    Ive just[in] made a startling realization about shinyponysocks.
    he warnt birthed by normal means frum mummy’s hole.
    twas shat out of daddy’s arse.
    ergo, TURDoo 2.0 is no longer sarcasm but in fact accurate.

    oyph.

    1. Careful PO. I tried to say something like what you just said a couple of days ago and my comment got pulled. And Antenor: same message.

  20. The black face façade is beginning to wear thin because it is an overt act of camouflage by the media to get our attention away from the real issue. The self avowed feminist can’t keep his hands off of women!!! The more the media plays up the racist scam the less focus there is on Trudeau’s inherent need to paw and grope the fairer sex. This latest picture is only one of thousands where Trudeau opportunistically gropes, paws, or poses with women. Remember the hand on the posterior of the GG, how about the many selfies with nearly nude or semi-dressed women (or the make-believe ones) in the pride parades, the elbow in the House, the Kokanee disaster, the kiss of the newly wed in Vancouver, the list goes on and on. No the real issue is that Canadians are again being spoon fed another apology from this ‘politician’ by a compliant media that will not report on the real issue, (privileged patriarchy) much like the media did not report on the Kennedy imbroglio escapades, and that’s more the pity for Canadian voters as this election approaches.

  21. The guy put on black face and pretended to be an ape. What does he have to do to be called a racist? Does he need a Klan hood on for you to get it? Look at his damn India trip. The guy is a racist ok. He is.

    1. “The guy is a racist ok. He is.”

      That’s my conclusion. He thought blackface was hilarious. Grabs tits and makes fun of blacks and the women and brown people love him. One does have to shake one’s head. A conservative candidate was racist because she knows Faith Goldy whose only crime was that she was interviewed after Charlottesville by a website that likes white people.
