Like when I went to Haida Gwaii....
One of the anthropologists at the museum insisting that the Haida emerged from the ocean.
And my Canadian programming has me thinking.... well that's what his stories say... so I should smile and nod and be polite.
But then my DCF training kicks in and I'm like "seriously"...
you're an anthropologist and this is your scientific view of Haida anthropology?
Oh ya - it's a Woke meme.... being played for Woke points.
His energy was entirely AntiFa.... Haida fundamentalist antifa....
I mean - I didn't get in a big argument with him - but I represented skepticism for the group. He didn't like that.
My DCF training keeps me from succumbing to the jedi mind tricks of this kind of douche bag.
Most of the Haida I met were nothing like this guy. They were almost all decent people.
Not that I met loads of them... but a few... on the airplane, at breakfast, on the tours....
They hang out at the cultural sites as "watchmen" and give tours.
These sites are way out there - we went by zodiac - it took four days to see 5 of them.
Lots of cool wildlife along the way.
Totally worth it.
