Canadians are definitely racist as fuck towards Indians, just listen to anyone in line at a Tim Horton's staffed mostly with TFWs or read the comments on your local "$CITY's worst drivers" Facebook page.
The first time I felt pride for this country in a long time, immediately ruined because they’re partying with pedophile protectors. Haven’t even seen a single player attempt to cover their asses about it.
All hope and interest I had in this team has shifted to the women’s team who are on the right side of history.
If it helps, most Hockey players are registered Republicans. Several have been very supportive of Trump. If you're looking for an American sport that doesn't protect pedophiles I suggest you take up horseshoes.
I don’t particularly care if they’re republicans or not.
You can be a republican and a conservative without gargling Trump’s nuts.
Partying with a man who is directly responsible in covering up a pedophile ring that includes the president of the country just minutes after bringing their teammates daughter on the ice is sick.
Not to mention them making a laughingstock of the women who also won gold.
Just absolutely fucking spineless and shameful behavior on what should be a great day for the country.

I'm not certain that this is true anymore. Virtually every Republican in Congress, with one or two notable exceptions, has been actively protecting Trump from prosecution. If someone calls themselves a Republican and votes for these reps and senators, then they are actively supporting Trump's defense and enabling his crimes and the continuing destruction of this nation.
I mean they are pretty in line with the narcissistic traits necessary to crash a celebration in a locker room where there are definitely going to be cameras.
I have AN explanation of it. When you’re a minority in America, people see your minority status first, and then you. You’re an Indian man and THEN you’re whoever you are. Some people resent this association so much that they come to hate it and actively work to disappoint expectations of them. You’re expected as a minority to vote Democratic but some people are like fuck that, look at me, I’m down with Trump baby. I’m an individual! I’m a maverick! And of course once someone makes this leap, MAGA embraces them like mad because “see it proves we’re not racists.” That person then enjoys a kind of celebrity status and is generally slapped on the back all around by MAGA, which to some is preferable to being yet another faceless vote in the minority block, doing what’s expected of them. It’s a pretty common trope for a fascist, dominant group to accept a member of the “out group” as a kind of mascot as long as that person sends the right signals that they accept the hegemony and bow to it.
I don’t ascribe this self-hating shit to every minority Trump voter. Of course Trump appeals to assholes everywhere and there are just assholes of every stripe. I’ve actually come across quite a number of Indian men who are super type-A, headstrong and as full of themselves as any white man ever. In temperament, these guys do have more in common with Trump than, say, Kamala Harris.
I understand that the only real qualification for a high level US government job these days is absolutely loyalty to Pedolf but it's still wild to me that this absolute fucking clown is anywhere near a position of responsibility.
