Any comment from the snowflakes on their hero Trudeau using an Arabic word when wishing Indians Happy Diwali Day today.
Hilarious fail.

Indians (of the South Asian variety) in each country:
Canada = 1.16m
USA = 2.84m
He may have used the Urdu word (instead of the Hindi one) for “congratulations” but at least Trudeau publicly acknowledged Diwali, the main festival of a significant minority (Trump ‘celebrated’ it in the White House). By the way, so did numerous Aussie cricketers on Twitter.

64 million Urdu speakers in India. Diwali celebrated by Urdu speakers. Urdu is not an Arabic language.

Yep, not hard to understand that at all.
Actually, I think / hope almost everyone in here sees it that way.
Amazing footage.
20,000 Americans offering stiff-armed salutes to G Washington draped with swastikas.

They were right into it back then. Not so much now but you never know.
You notice it’s a couple of weeks since the Las Vegas massacre and nobody’s even talking about it any more? And as for any serious, on-going pressure for gun law reform - forget it.
This is why nothing will change over there. The sheer deluge of bullshit is stopping anyone from applying the necessary sustained focus and pressure needed for meaningful change.
We have the same problem here in Australian politics, but you look at it over there and the whole ‘24-hour news cycle’ and the way transient kerfluffle over the outrage du jour continually sidetracks reform efforts becomes horrifyingly apparent,
If you want to know why the powerful stay in power and the corporates get what they want and nothing seems to change - this is why. A politician these days facing pressure to enact a reform they don’t want to, only has to wait a week and it’ll be forgotten about. It’ll be out of the media, and the twitter campaigns, demonstrations etc will have faded away. But the lobbyists will still be knocking on the door and will still be paying for long lunches and talking about electoral donations and lucrative employment opportunities after politics.

Too true, HM.
I am in China now and the Congress is taking place. Xi is dedicated to China surging ahead with its political reforms, clearing up corruption and not only is China poised to be the world’s leading economy, it will transform the world economy via its One Belt One Road initiative.
