Canadian PM and Woke Icon Justin Trudeau Wore Blackface -- Or "Brownface," Which Is Two Shades Less Serious -- At Party, Canada's Liberal Party is Forced to Admit

I think we're going to find out that liberal dogmas about race-shaming aren't quite as dogmatic as applied in the cases of non-leftists.

A lot of nuance will be discovered here.

Note this isn't back in the sixties, of course.

This is just a few years back, when American Idol was still a big deal.

Justin Trudeau, Canada's prime minister, wore brownface makeup to a party at the private school where he was teaching in the spring of 2001. TIME has obtained a photograph of the incident.

The photograph has not been previously reported. The picture was taken at an "Arabian Nights"--themed gala. It shows Trudeau, then the 29-year-old son of the late former Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau, wearing a turban and robes with his face, neck and hands completely darkened.

In fairness, playing Cultural Appropriation dress-up is kind of his bag, baby:

And I just got tipped this: Twitter is actively censoring accounts which retweet Trudeau's brownface picture.

Always protecting the left, always punishing the right.

But censorship is great when monopolies do it!!!!
