Stuff like this and the "base" he has created give off pretty harsh trump vibes. Here is a link confirming for those wanting one. Sorry I did not include it originally. https://www.cbc.ca/amp/1.712106

Is indigenous frowned upon too? I don't want to be rude, but I can't keep up.

indigenous, aboriginal, and aborigine, mean exactly the same thing. anyone getting offended at any of these word usages probably doesn't know the definiton.

Aboriginal should be same as indigenous, but "aborigine" is a racist term (due to historical usage) for the original peoples of Australia. I've never heard of it being used for anyone outside Australia.
