I have absolutely no idea why so many people still support these clowns.

MODERATORS
Massive lying campaigns with no accountability.
People who want simple clear answers.
Amygdaloids who comprise about 20% of any population and are driven by various flavours of fear.
People who believe success like wealth or fame is evidence of merit.
People who believe that social hierarchies are necessary and immutable in some ways.
People who want simple clear answers.
I'm constantly reminded of this quote:
For every complex problem there is an answer that is clear, simple, and wrong.
-- H. L. Mencken
Well that's certainly not what I wanted to hear, but I have a hard time saying it's actually wrong.
Yeah because that’s saved so much money and worked so well
I heard today they’re no longer checking the safety of milk. I actually like not getting horribly sick from milk.
Yeah because that’s saved so much money and worked so well
It's hurt a lot of people though, and cruelty is the point.
Also think of the massive reserves of unemployed workers that will let employers drive wages into the ground.
I really hope the Cons lose massively in this election and back off from this alt-right Trumpian swing they've been on under Poilievre.
Not that the previous versions of the Conservative Party were any better, but at least they tried to hide how hateful and stupid they were. Now it's all just out in the open. It's exhausting.
Do wish liberals had done the electoral reform they promised. Without electoral reform, we will just continue down the two party road, so the overton window can go between the robbing the poor party and the 'you have no choice but to vote for us or the other party wins. We'll still move the overton window in that direction and serve the rich though,' party. Hopefully they didn't also kill the momentum we had for electoral reform as an urge of the populace.
I will never truly forgive the Libs for that. "2015 will be the last federal elections under first-past-the-post", just to turn around mere weeks after being elected and saying "people just wanted electoral reform because they were tired of Harper, now that they have a government they're satisfied with they no longer feel the need for reform" (this is essentially exactly what Trudeau said in an interview with Le Devoir in late 2015)
Please go vote!
How you cunts can look at the US and think to yourselves “FUCK YEAH MCGA!!1!1!” Is just mind boggling.
At least the veneer of how stupid and awful the MAGA ideas are is being pulled back these last few months.
I agree with you, I do not understand it.
Conservatives in Australia are publicly backing away from emulating DOGE and Trump. Publicly but I’m sure that it will change if they win in May. Can’t trust them as they are rabid.
Pierre's record speaks for itself, no need to muddy waters
- Received a government pension at 31, then raised the retirement age on hard-working Canadians
- Defined marriage as a union between ‘one man and one woman, to the exclusion of all others’ (in front of his gay parent)
- Visited and courted far-right extremist groups
- Said Indigenous Peoples needed to learn the value of hard work more than they needed compensation for residential schools
- Worked to bring American-style, anti-union laws to Canada
- Said he’d use the notwithstanding clause, overriding Canadians’ rights
- Committed to free votes, allowing his MPs to bring forward anti-abortion legislation
Timbit Trump has had a terrible history as MP, I don't want to see him as PM. Spread far and wide if you agree.
Said he’d use the notwithstanding clause, overriding Canadians’ rights
All of those are horrible but I think this one is especially chilling. He outright told us he will violate our rights. Who the fuck in their right mind would vote for that?!
Chuds gonna chud, not much else to say unfortunately
