This needed to be said. I will post this on Twitter. One thing that I have noticed over the last 3-4 decades was the "dumbing down" of white male fathers. This is what young boys see as a model? Maybe we should boycott these companies. Thank you.

In Canada it’s even more out of skew, I’ve assumed it’s to score ESG points, and I agree easy virtual signalling. Almost always they do flash a token white guy in the background

Excellent article Michael. I falls in line with my observations. I have recently noticed a slight change in TV media in CA. Not so in the US where group think is very strong. Perhaps the US Speakers change will have an impact. We'll know more on Monday when the guardrails are established.

I am increasingly concerned about our education system in CA. What has happened at RMC?

I think it might have been a flash for Xmas shopping, fwiw I used to watch Suits and didn’t realize Megan M was black until the episode when she introduced her black father, but wasn’t sure even then, (she’s an actress) until she became engaged from the media. My high school best friends parents were separated and I didn’t know he was black until I met his father a couple years later, but never a big deal to me.

When I was in high school in North Vancouver BC, 1950s, there were lots of Asians and Indians in my classes and I never experienced anything untoward. In my opinion, this whole thing has been blown up into a money making adventure. Green Peace was a bunch of university guys trying to stop nuclear testing in Alaska. They did. How in hell did we get hear from there?
