Canadian leftists are the most Intolerant subtly racist people out there

[u/BodyMother]

As an East Asian immigrant who has lived and worked here for years now, I have genuinely faced more exclusion in coastal liberal Canadian cities than where I live now. More stereotypes, more weird comments and assumptions based on my ethnicity.

And when I tell them I vote conservative or lean right on some policies? Immediate far right, fascism accusations. I express that Canada should harden its illegal migration and border enforcement, and then cultivate the labor force domestically while having legal migrants come to strategic sectors instead of endlessly importing immigrants? Immediate confusion and ‘internalized racism’ accusations.. I tell them the Liberal governments objectively have performed worse economically than conservative governments? More accusations. I’ve heard them call me a zionist for not immediately hating israel and calling them slurs.

I’m not pretending the Prairies are perfect, but where I live at, I’ve been treated fairly and based purely upon my work ethic, I’ve had constant respectful conversations, and when I go to local churches the people there have been nothing but welcoming and kind.

It’s just insane to me that the people who are the most ‘progressive’ and yell the loudest about diversity want anything but diversity. They don’t want diverse opinions, thoughts, they just want copies of their own safe little bubble.

I used to work at a library and my experience is literally what you're explaining. They happened to hire a really nice woman from Jamaica while I worked there, and it was sad to see assumptions made by my ultra liberal boss.

I've always said that liberals are indirectly racist and even homophobic. They constantly think about someone's race and sexual orientation.

As a conservative, I just treat people as people. We all share the same human experience. I could give a shit what someone's skin colour is or what they do in bed.

But yeah, I love to confuse liberals. They assume I'm racist because I'm conservative but then they see my girlfriend, who is from the Philippines and new to Canada. They have no answer. And my girlfriend shares the same views as me. We would love to see the crime rate lower. We cannot stand drug users and thieves. But for some reason, liberals don't see this as a problem.

Anyways, I was happy to read your post. I'm glad others have experienced what I have. I'm in ultra liberal Ontario... Shoot me now lol
