But the dipshits are out-numbered. We can, and should, treat them with the contempt they so justly deserve. Coddling them because we don’t want to seem “elitist” or “intolerant” or “unstatesmanlike” will only foster their ignorance and feed their outsized sense of self-worth.
But like… Trudeau’s lukewarm governance is what enables these pendulum swings. I’m hesitant to even call it his governance because of how obviously the status-quo old-guard let him off the leash for an election and then immediately bury whatever he promised.
I, starry eyed, voted for him in a deeply conservative riding after his PROMISE that if elected, it would be the last FPTP election. His PROMISE.
“At least this will be the last election in which my vote will be completely worthless due to my postal code”, I naively believed.
My votes are literally worthless. Literally. I can’t help him and it’s literally his fault.
This, the timeline where we lost Jack Layton, is the worst timeline.
Good. That little asshole is a threat to Canada.
I agree he’s an asshole and a threat to Canada.
But this is a political stunt, designed to energize his base: which polling says is enough to win.
He doesn’t need to sway any new voters, just convince te ones he already has to show up.
So… Not good. He laid bait, it was snapped up.
I hear you, and I don’t think you’re wrong.

This. Learn from the US’ mistakes.

I’m no fan of Trudeau but I’d take 50 more years of him as PM over any more conservatives in the position.
I agree!
