Not only is he not blaming everything on Alberta... The only albertans oblivious enough to be offended by what he's saying are the bigots we're talking about.
The classic "if you're offended then you must deserve to be offended." Kind of ironic in the context of an article about bigotry.
The article is discussing a Canada-wide problem and he jumped straight to "it's about Alberta." The article actually calls out Saskatchewan as having the steepest decline in acceptance of gender diversity.
Sorry are you just unaware of the separatist movement galvanizing maple maga across the country? Or do you just lack reading comprehension?
Stop misunderstanding people. Or stop putting words in their mouth. Pick one and do it.
I can literally look out my window right this moment and see the yard sign I've got up opposing separatism. I've canvassed for anti-separatist movements, I phone banked for the NDP in the most recent provincial election, I went door to door in support of them. I live in one of the ridings that sent an NDP member to parliament, I voted for them too.
But yeah, clearly I'm the bigot here. It annoys me that Alberta is considered a big blob of traitors and racists and therefore I must be a racist myself.
Do you not see how this kind of attitude is harmful?
