The fact that progressives \u2014 there\u2019s no need to add the term \u201cradical\u201d because all progressives are radical \u2014 are nihilistic is old news.<\/p>\n
But what does nihilistic mean? It means that there is no truth, only power. In an effort to monopolize power,\u00a0 progressives attempt to replace truth with illusion.<\/p>\n
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau of Canada is an adherent of nihilism. He craves power. In order to get it, he seeks to pass off rumors as truth, and half-truths as dogma. Truth, however, always prevails.<\/p>\n
In 2021, it was widely reported<\/a> that the remains of 215 children were found at an indigenous residential school site in British Columbia. Two years later, after excavations at suspected \u201cmass grave\u201d sites, no bodies have been found, according to the New York Post<\/a>.<\/p>\n The bodies were initially located using ground-penetrating radar at Kamloops Indian Residential School. The government school was established in 1890 and was run by the Roman Catholic church. It was closed down in 1978.<\/p>\n \u201cMinegoziibe Anishinabe, a group of indigenous people also known as Pine Creek First Nation, excavated 14 sites in the basement of Our Lady of Seven Sorrows Catholic Church near the Pine Creek Residential School in Manitoba during four weeks this summer,\u201d reported Dana Kennedy of the Post.<\/p>\n The lack of bodies doesn\u2019t sound like it\u2019s deterring Chief Derek Nepinak of Pine Creek Indian Reserve. He indicated the effort was an \u201cinitial excavation.\u201d\u00a0 The term \u201cinitial\u201d has some skeptics thinking more digs are planned, according to the Post.<\/p>\n It sounds like Nepinak wants<\/em> to find dead bodies. Why? Well there could be a number of reasons.<\/p>\n A cynic might think that the far-left Canadian government wants to disgrace the Catholic church<\/a> and in doing so undermine Western values. This is what nihilists do. Western civilization, from ancient Greece forward, has been built on the premise that truth exists \u2014 from Moses to Plato to Jesus Christ. Nihilists can\u2019t have truth because truth trumps power. They need to get rid of it. But they can\u2019t.<\/p>\n Did atrocities occur at the Canadian government schools? Don\u2019t doubt it. Colonization \u2014 whether European, Pheonecian or Japanese \u2014 isn\u2019t pretty. When cultures collide, atrocities occur. That\u2019s history. Progressives, however, don\u2019t care about history. They care about power. So they attempt to rewrite history to undermine truth.<\/p>\n When the mass graves in Canada were \u201cfound\u201d, Trudeau demanded<\/a> that Pope Francis apologize for the alleged atrocities. Never mind the fact the Catholic church was working at the government\u2019s behest. Maybe Pope Francis<\/a> should have asked Trudeau for a government apology, but he didn\u2019t.<\/p>\n Instead, Francis stood in front of a delegate of Canadian indigenous people and said, \u201cI want to say to you with all my heart: I am very sorry. And I join my brothers, the Canadian bishops in asking your pardon.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cI want to say to you with all my heart: I am very sorry,\u201d Francis said, during a final meeting with First Nations, Inuit and M\u00e9tis delegates at the Vatican. \u2014 Toronto Star (@TorontoStar) April 1, 2022<\/a><\/p>\n\n Was Francis\u2019 apology a rush to judgment in an attempt to seize some sort of twisted moral high ground, a flat-out mistake or a nod to Trudeau and his hatred of truth? People will draw their own conclusions \u2014 some based on evidence, others based on desire.<\/p>\n Whatever the case, the initial accusations of the atrocities, including the \u201cdiscovery\u201d of 215 bodies of children, had a real-world impact. A series of Catholic churches were burned down<\/a> in Canada in short order. In one example, two churches were set on fire on June 21, which happens to be National Indigenous People\u2019s Day in Canada.<\/p>\n Catholic Churches burn on Indian reserves in the South Okanagan on National Indigenous Peoples Day.

If he did, it\u2019s not going too far to think it brought a smile to his face. Whatever one thinks of Pope Francis and the Catholic church \u2014 and there is plenty gone wrong \u2014 it is nevertheless an iconic symbol of Western values. Seeing it burn to the ground would be a dream come true for Trudeau and his fellow globalist elites.<\/p>\n 2 more Catholic churches on B.C.

Would he smile too? I don\u2019t know, but it\u2019s safe to say that he\u2019s a progressive. That says it all.<\/p>\n A \u201cmass grave\u201d with no bodies? That\u2019s radical.
