To quote George Will concerning his new book:
"The baby boomers produced kids who turned into neurotic parents who produced overly sensitive and brittle kids who are now snowflakes and damaged human beings!" (The term "Snowflake" is used by people who are incapable of using their intellect and their words to make their point in an intelligent manner.)
This re-writing of history to acquiesce to all the "woke" assholes has got to stop folks!
Why are we applying todays morality and conventions to yesterday's events?
Guest Post by Tyler Dawson:
Canada’s national library, which bills itself as “custodian of our distant past and recent history” has deleted a history of the prime ministers from its website, with archivists having labelled it “outdated and redundant.”
A search on the Library and Archives Canada website now yields an error page, and a news release entitled “spring cleaning” explains that the feature, called First Among Equals, has now been removed, along with a handful of other historical records.
Blacklock’s Reporter, an Ottawa online news outlet, which, along with the Toronto Star, first reported on the deletion, said there was “much fanfare” in 1994 when the web page was launched.
The removal comes as the country grapples with Canada’s history with Indian Residential Schools, a heated debate that has even led to the burning of churches and destruction of statues.
This latest reckoning, which has again tackled the history of figures such as Egerton Ryerson, Hector-Louis Langevin and Sir John A. Macdonald, came in the wake of reports that hundreds of unmarked graves had been discovered at former residential schools.
The Library and Archives Canada page regarding Macdonald made no mention of his role in the creation of the residential school system, the Toronto Star reported last month.
The library also deleted a website dedicated to the War of 1812 and a poetry archive, a news release explained.
The federal institution did not respond to the National Post’s request for comment by press time.
John English, a former Liberal member of Parliament and author of biographies of Pierre Elliott Trudeau and Lester B. Pearson, called it “evasive.”
“I understand you have to revise these things but would think it would be a more deliberative process with proper discussion,” English said.
In another section of the website, which explains the process for “renewal,” staff say that some of the content on the website, written years ago “does not always reflect our diverse and multicultural country, often presenting only one side of Canada’s history.
“This is why content that is redundant or outdated will be removed or rewritten,” it says.
The changes came under fire from some Canadian historians, Blacklock’s reported.
“I honestly cannot understand why the biographies of prime ministers would be ‘redundant’ or ‘outdated’ in a country that has a poor historical memory,” said Barry Wilson, who’s published a biography of Mackenzie Bowell, the fifth prime minister of Canada.
“It would be educational to update the site to say in the 21st century there have been doubts or criticisms raised about past leaders, but surely the answer is not to destroy online access to historical records.”
History is normally written by the victors..., but now it seems to be written by the snowflakes
The way I see it anyway!
Modern science has established that every snowflake is different and is like no other snowflake ever made!
With that in mind, we have gathered a group of snowflakes together as an example of their differences!
