I'm a 33 yr old black male. I need someone to explain to me what's the end goal here. From now until the end of time, no white person will ever be allowed to wear black paint? The made a whole movie with black guys wearing white face. Are you telling me that a white person will never be able to do that because of something that happened decades ago?
I'm not saying Trudeau should not be criticized or held to a lower standard.
Because I'm debating Carlson spinning Lemon's take on the situation and Trudeau's apology compared to Megyn's doesn't suggest I don't hold Trudeau accountable.
Go look at my posts. I said from the start his actions were insensitive, ignorant, wrong, racist. I never said anything less.
I do think his apology was a good one.
Whether or not the voters think that today he is able to govern is on the voter.
And whether or not Behar got to keep her job was up to her employer.
And if you see -- while i discuss how some have argued Trudeau's brown/black face is like dressing up -- I always point out that black face has more of a racial impact than just donning make up for a costume.
You guys are filling the narrative for your story.
Kelly's apology wasn't an apology. And really who cares...but it wasn't an apology.
And I still think elected leaders should be held to a different standard.
And the problem for Canadian voters. The guy running against Trudeau attended a rally predominately attended by whtie supremacists just this year. So voters have to decide between a guy who did something really stupid years ago or a guy who did something really stupid this year.
There is no spinning.
Look, you don't have to like Tucker Carlson, but he's completely right about this situation.
It was YOU who twisted Tucker Carlson's words by the way. This is what he said,
"“It’s a little like finding out your super sensitive brother-in-law the one who tells you he’s a feminist, the one who’s always scolding you for your sexism is, in fact, hitting on the babysitter,” said Carlson. “Virtue is always a cover for the sin. That’s the key to understanding the modern left. Whatever they are accusing you of doing, they are doing themselves but more enthusiastically.”
So basically, the point here is that Virtue is always a cover for the sin. People who point fingers are always the sinners themselves. It's basic human psychology. The ones who accuse their spouses of cheating are often times cheaters themselves. This is the point he wa making about Trudeau.

Sad that this country has become what it is today. I don't think anyone who has depict another race did it out of racism.

The end goal here is to recognize some people's double standard and not taking such a person seriously.
You and I both know that to many people, black face is a big huge deal. If it wasn't, then many people won't be fired. But when it comes to Justin Trudeau, "Oh, focus on the important issue here, nothing here to see, he apologized, cool, let's focus on Trump. Orange man bad."
This is exactly what Don Lemon was doing. lol Hilarious.

You spent all day yesterday making excuses for him.
So which is it - should he be held to a higher standard or not? Make up your mind and at least TRY to sound fair and unbiased.
Never mind, I don't think that's possible.
