@EmmMacfarlane I take point that issue is intrinsically ideological but it is odd that North Americans commemorate other people's atrocities
@DrewGuy86 Sure but we also have many victims of colonialism, of anti-communism, of just plain repression. Seems arbitrary to pick one group

@HeerJeet prioritizing like that is political, and communist victims are more tory friendly than most, but that's not arbitrary exactly -
@DrewGuy86 Well, sure, but that's the problem. It's a public museum funded by tax dollars and also a Tory party political move.
