Another absurd hindsight blackface controversy

This time involving Justin Trudeau.

Said it last time about a Republican. Saying it now about a liberal. Applying today's taboos to people decades ago when those taboos didn't hold is plain absurd.

There must be some evolutionary cul-de-sac which explains why folks so enjoy being offended. Because no one is really this brittle. Imagine if such an impressionable person is faced with a real issue, like they have a child diagnosed with cancer.

And yet they pretend to be shocked, shocked by these infractions of good manners, swooning at the very idea of whatever it is they are told to be offended by.

Gone are the days when an admirable person was meant to have a muscular character. Nowadays, it's victims as far as the eye can see.
