    canadians are nice, but not kind (Tim Hortons version…)

    nice is when we pretend to be good people, but deep down our racist, colonial, genocidal blood festers

    kind demands authenticity that we mock with “nice,” and it enhances human dignity

    heres a cool video about a pay-it-forward chain at timmies

    great ad concept, mostly because it perpetuates the mythology

    most comments are heartwarming, naturally

    then there’s this:

    i love me a good canada

    i haven’t seen it tho

    the c/a/n/a/d/a project is vile, but we can make something better

    reconciliation is fake because we skipped the truth

    anyyyyy day now we can start embracing truths and build a real place that doesn’t depend on the false comfort that comes from racism

    one of the many ironies of this place is how timmies is a mairikkkan company now and this particular racist talks about the staff, not the ownership

    someday can be today!
