As Ezra always said, never let a horrifying human tragedy go to waste.

Rancidly racist and anti-Indigenous Rebel News mentions the mass grave of children at a Canadian residential school:



just long enough to turn it into a fundraiser:



And just what kind of huckster is such a vile, execrable piece of human garbage as to so blatantly profit off of the misery of others? Oh, right ...



Carry on, then.

Their take, as dog whistled in their "questions" and amplified, as always, by their commenters, is as predictable as it is vile.

"Yeah, too bad about the dead kids. But it's probably just a lost cemetery, and they can't really be sure who's buried there, and in the meantime the Chief, for some unaccountable reason, doesn't want to speak to the Rebel. Meanwhile, send me money so I can throw a little more dust in your eyes and make sure you don't get too weepy about Indians."

The constitutional duty to consult, Indigenous title, treaties and Land Claims are all an impediment to the free and unchained extraction of oil. I get that. And mocking Injuns is just part of the Rebel DNA (I'll never forget Sheila Gunn Reid's revolting comments about the cleanliness of native protesters, or Keean's psychotic raving about lethal traps being set for police by Indigenous groups; but exploiting this horror is a new low for even them. Which is great - we now have an even lower low to look forward to.
