      The nazified liberals are trying to get the naive (but justifiably upset) liberals back under control, a whole-ass parliament clapping for a Waffen SS member was too much mask slip for the naive libs and now the scratched libs are trying to gaslight the normal ones into believing it never happened

        Yeah like, a good amount of libs on Reddit and Twitter and stuff are legit mad about this. Applauding an SS member proved to be a bridge too far for some of these people, which is very hopium for me. Hoping its the beginning of a radicalizing moment for some of them.

      Poland applied to extradite him. The liberals are waging a damage-limitation media campaign because they already know Canada is going to refuse this extradition and want to get ahead of that by getting people ready to handwave it.

      Trudeau even gave a non apology, so at the very least he understands how bad the optics are, but liberals refuse to take the L and dig their mass grave even deeper. And they will put you in it for embarrassing them.
