we dont see goverment the same thing as the national image

 

[Canadian Dragon]

plus like, idk, I dont see much to be proud about when we look at history

 

[Canadian Dragon]

sure we are a lot better than other shitty places but that shouldn't really be a barometer for celebration when we have so much more work to do

 

[CakeWalker]

i think the importance is to remember the good as well as the bad

 

[Canadian Dragon]

remember yes

 

[CakeWalker]

i feel like the media are really pushing a negative image at the moment

 

[CakeWalker]

of history

 

[Canadian Dragon]

I just find it makes us complacent, but i am pretty cynical when it comes to nationalism

 

[Canadian Dragon]

history is not pretty, i think politicians and society has been trying to brush a lot of things under the rug

 

[Canadian Dragon]

because its uncomfortable

 

[Canadian Dragon]

hell the US is trying to handwave the holocaust and slavery in some states, its def not the media making history negative. humans were objectively fucking assholes

 

[CakeWalker]

yeah a lot of the older polish community - are not all happy with how the Ukraine situation is displayed

 

[CakeWalker]

and being painted almost as facist in beliefs for saying stuff

 

[Canadian Dragon]

welllllll
