When you get SJW as a Prime Minister: Justin Trudeau Corrects A Woman Who Said "Mankind" & Gets Mocked

[letsrewindit]

Justin Trudeau is often hailed as one of the world's most feminist national leaders, but he has come in for criticism after a video emerged of him calling out a woman for using the word "mankind" instead of "peoplekind."

 

The Canadian prime minister was taking questions during a Q&A at MacEwan University in Edmonton, Canada when a young woman told him her charitable religious group was having trouble navigating the country's volunteering regulations.

 

After asking him to look into the policies further, she said: "Maternal love is the love that's going to change the future of mankind." To which Trudeau replied: "We like to say peoplekind, not necessarily mankind 'cause it's more inclusive."

 

The woman responded in good faith saying, "There you go!" as the audience broke into applause. Trudeau added: "We can all learn from each other."

 

The Canadian prime minister is known for his gender-equal cabinet, vocal support of feminism and for encouraging men to do more to challenge the sexism they face. But critics have previously questioned his commitment to gender equality, asking whether he is a "fake feminist", and now he is being roundly mocked on Twitter for "mansplaining feminism" and making up a word, rather than using "humankind".

"peoplekind".... is that even a word? it's humankind, Justin.

Use human if your mind can't come up with a better name than peoplekind ,it's just poor English

 

Let's go even more scientific ,use homosapiens instead

I always never liked the term mankind as well. He should've just rebutted with humankind as Peoplekind is not a word. I like the OP provides zero evidence as in tweets etc that show people are dragging trudeau. I guess I supposed to take OP's or the article's word for it lol

Trudeau didn't mention animals, only you did. Try to stay on topic and its "people" not peaple lol

Words more offensive than "Mankind"

 

1) Human 

Let's begin with the most obvious one. "Human" is so profane that I feel ashamed even writing it. "Huperson" is a much more enlightened choice. 

2) Woman 

The greatest trick the Patriarchy ever pulled was deciding that the female gender would be called "woman," thus ensuring that every woman would need a man to be a woman because it's right there in the name. Let's change it to "woperson." 

3) Manager 

How can we expect wopersons to break the glass ceiling if they are literally being excluded from the word "management"? "Personager" and "personagement" would solve this problem. 

4) Commander 

Are you sensing a pattern? EVERY position of authority has the word "man" embedded into it. Do you still think the Patriarchy is a myth, you fools? 

5) Manatee, Mantle, Adamant, Semantic, Reprimand, Mandible, Manufacture, Manifold. And every other "man" word. 

Say personatee, persontle, adapersont, sepersontic, repripersond, personufacture, personifold, etc., instead. It really isn't very cumbersome to make this simple adjustment to 3 or 400 hundred words in the English language. I think we'll manage. I mean mapersonage. 

6) Man 

Let's not forget that the word man has the word man in it. A man can just be a person. He already has higher wages; he doesn't need his own identity on top of it. 

7) Woperson 

If a man is now "person" then "woperson" brings us back to where we started with "woman." Better to call a woperson a person and a man a person and everyone can just be persons. 

8) Person 

Scratch that. Persons may be even more misogynistic than humans. I cannot imagine having to tell my daughter when she gets older that only sons get to be perSONS. Forget persons and let's call everyone "people." 

9) People 

On second thought, the word "people" comes from the French "peupel," which means "mankind." Now we're running in circles. People, person, man, woman — all of these words dehumanize women. I mean they dewhateverize women. I mean not women. The people with vaginas. I mean not people. OK, look, maybe our only choice is to take Ben Shapiro's suggestion and combine the less offensive parts of "human" and "person" to make a brand new word: "huper." 

10) Huper 

Ben Shapiro is a sexist monstrosity. Under the guise of creating a gender neutral word, he has only hidden the chauvinism under a thin veil of additional letters. Let's look at this word again: "HupEr." See the problem? The word "he" is stealthily smuggled into our minds, the letters separated only by the word "up" (signifying male superiority), causing us to form anti-female biases without even knowing it. Actually. Wait. 

11) Female 

How did I miss this? FeMALE. Look at that. "Male" is four letters. "Fe" is two. The majority of the word "female" is taken up my "male." Men don't just manspread on the subway — they do it in our language, too. I think it's clear that all labels assigned to "men" and "women" are far too loaded with sexist assumptions. Maybe it's best just to stick with the pronouns. We can call them "shes" and "hers" (if those are their preferred pronouns, of course). 

12) She/Her 

Forgive me. How could I not see it? She can't be "she" or "her" without "he." Men have co-opted every word in existence. Literally any word we may use to represent uterus-bearing individuals — and any word we may use to signify anything else — will inevitably have bigoted implications. 

13) All language 

We must abandon language. Verbal communication is a patriarchal conspiracy. All words, all forms of intelligible speech, are exclusionary, elitist, racist, sexist, and archaic. Let us relegate ourselves to grunting, groaning, and hissing at each other, only communicating our primitive emotions but never expressing a coherent thought. That's basically what people already do on Twitter, anyway.

If you know his actions, you will not like him:

 

- Talks about climate changes, but pushes the building of pipeline that Trump is pushing

- Talks about feminism, visit a place of worship that segregate genders and disguise it as "diversity is strength"

-& many more

Because it's rare to find a male feminist, I think Trudeau should be appreciated, but if he's faking it for votes, then not cool.

I like Trudeau, but I don't like stupidity

[Jiraishin]

As it comes out, he was joking, he said so himself afterwards.

I was rolling my eyes when I first heard of that, but apparently the girl asking the question, kept going on and on about women and men and oppression and patriarchy, that I guess he was just trying to mock her in a way that she was addressing and defining things.
