What is happening to my country? We now have CTV platforming racists and bigots who might have a problem that the NDP leader wears a turban.

@puck61 Not even trying to hide the bigotry anymore.

@PicturesOfABetterTomorrow Since when is hating turbans bigotry? I hate gimp suits too! I hate wing tips. I hate Turkish yogurt and those nasty drinks with chunks of tapioca in them. Of course I'm a bigot. You're a bigot too. Everyone is forgetting the English language or trying to write their own dictionaries! Yeah, I don't care for Muslims much. I don't like fascists either. There's nothing wrong with that.

@puck61 Rather convenient hair splitting mote and bailey argument.

Also it is interesting you automatically assumed they are Muslim.

@PicturesOfABetterTomorrow I like Sikhs enough to forgive their turban wearing habits. I love talking to people who have hyper-focused tunnel vision! You're the one ASSuming here, not me! 😆

@puck61 Because you're conflating the turban with a racial stereotype that's why it's bigotry:


You just admitted you were bigoted so clearly you know deep down you're wrong.

@SatanBurger There is nothing wrong with disliking fascism or an item of clothing. You are every bit as much of a bigot as I am.

@puck61 Your first comment was hostile, this is something different than just simply not liking someone's socks because they are purple. You even admitted it so no backsies.

Several different groups wear the turban, groups of men have been doing hate crimes against these people for awhile, simply because they "look" like something they don't like.

Far far different.

@SatanBurger Drama queens! 😆

@puck61 Hey I didn't ask anyone to be bigoted, it just happens.
