Reading the thread is just really sad, it’s just a solem reminder of how backwards this city really can be, if you just stood in front of some of those awful clubs on a Thursday night you would see large amount racism
Terms like “you people” or “them” is just a way of othering people, reinforcing the idea that Calgary is a white blue color corporate city, and that if you don’t’ fall into a certain category your different. Its just awful, I was born and raised in this city but the stories I have read in this thread about racism almost makes me ashamed to call this place my home
