You know, I used to think the same way. But the more fxxked up people I've come across, the more jaded and cynical I've become.
I find it incredible (and incredibly ridiculous) that certain "Canadians" can even sympathsize with honour killing, let alone think it is somehow justifiable. I find it incredible (and incredibly ridiculous) that certain "Canadians" think women need to cover up if they don't want to become targets of sexual harrassments. Heck, I find it most ridiculous that certain "Canadians" can still think an authoritarian regime is somehow superior to our democracy after living in Canada for 20+ years, and themselves being the beneficiaries of flourishing under the democratic society during this time.
