The contradiction in what? Wanting proof that the death rate was higher (and how much higher) than in any other school?

- ZeroGravitas 4y agoDo the graves only exist if the rate was higher? You seem determined to downplay these graves, but the kettle logic of "these graves don't exist and also they do exist and we all know about them but they aren't a problem" undermines your argument.
- AinderS 4y agoAre you seriously going to pretend that these suspected graves aren't being used to allege that the treatment of natives in Canada was worse than previously believed?
- ZeroGravitas 4y agoYes? I think people are just generally a little underinforned about this kind of stuff, so the actual details can be shocking. And some people still overreact and try to cover it up and whitewash it. The US Civil war being about slavery still seems to be considered an eleborate hoax to some people. And they do the same "yes well the centuries of slavery, death, rape and murder is all true, and well established historical fact obviously, but <minor historical innaccuracy>! So basically they're overreacting and undermining our great nation by talking about stuff that happened." and it's cringe in both cases.
