  • I didn’t say that Canada is immune to bigotry or genocide. I even made reference to the genocide that Canada committed, and I would talk at length about it, if it werent off topic.

    But Canada is a moderate enough country that – again – I doubt a song with such dehumanizing lyrics against a group of people would ever be a hit in modern Canada. Nothing about my statement claims there is no bigotry or genocide in Canada. It is more of a statement of just how much bigotry and acceptance of genocide there must be in Israel for a song like “Charbu Darbu” to be a #1 hit.





  • Somebody mentioned that there are fight songs popular in my country as well. It seems like the post was deleted, and I only just got home, so I didn’t have a chance to look up more than one of the songs they listed, which was a White Stripes song, but the whole thing struck me as a false equivalence, since my country’s soldiers are not blowing the crap out of civilians and using those songs as a soundtrack for tiktok videos of them doing it. Also, I seriously doubt a song that contains such dehumanizing language about a specific group of people would become a hit in modern Canada. And finally, I have no love for Canada. They did their own genocide, but that’s not the current topic. So, calling false equivalence on a post that was deleted. Guess I’m ‘that guy’ 🤷
