      Christie Blatchford's argue that Natives criticizing cultural appropriation are worse then dictators or ISIS. Bold: http://news.nationalpost.com/full-comment/christie-blatchford-in-defence-of-the-cbcs-steve-ladurantaye-from-a-fellow-sinner …

      You might think I'm exaggerating but, no, Blatchford says she rather have Charlie Hebdo style massacres (12 dead) than Native criticism.pic.twitter.com/zVMn7ADemC

          Worth noting that although ostensibly pro-free-speech, Blatchford's column is actual anti-free speech of Natives. She wants them to STFU.

          That's what the "free speech" defense is. It's not for your free speech, it's for you to zip up and listen to exclusively mine. Sickening.

          So criticizing the desecration of a culture that was destroyed and the performance of what amounts to a minstrel show is worse than ISIS?
