Only Nazis hate Canadians. Because we are very good at destroying Nazis. It’s our national past time.
I would like "Kills Nazis" to be a common, simple part of Canadian identity, like hockey and manners. Basically, I want this:
"Oh Bob? Yeah he's just a good old Canadian boy. Smooth wristshot, absolute sniper. Always helps his neighbour shovel the walk. There was a demonstration by a bunch of those "Sons of Odin" fuckers downtown last week and he stopped by to huck bricks at them and protect counterprotestors. You know, we should have him over for a beer and some steaks"
“Sons of Odin” ? Is this a white supremacist gang like KKK, Nazis, etc or your own word choice?
Sons of Odin are a Canadian white supremacist movement with Viking inspired iconography and a stated mission to "stop the spread of Shariah Law". They were started in 2018 and started with a very media-savvy push as a "service organization" doing park clean ups and handing out water and granola bars to homeless people. Their intent was to grow to spread their Xenophobia and anti-islamic rhetoric.
They aren't a large group, maybe 15k members coast to coast and that's spread pretty thinly. As for why I picked them? I dunno- memorable name and more "Canadian" than name dropping the Klan.
Thanks for clarification. It's sad they try to ruin mythos that we should be able to embrace as unifying, within ourselves and with each other, by using it to divide.
We've got monuments in Europe for it and everything
