With a steady lead in the polls and a healthy war chest of political donations, the Conservative Party is rolling out a trio of new advertisements that are being viewed as aiming to redefine and soften Pierre Poilievre's image and messaging.

"farewell, fellow human, son of mine, in this authentically staged photo-op as you go to human-school. actual-humans exchange human emotions through a physical gesture of some sort. perhaps a handshake? yes. a handshake. the human photographers will surely document this actual-human interaction between myself (a human) and my son (also, a human) and the people of this country will finally embrace me as an actual human."
(narrator: humans don't shake their sons' hands when they drop them off for the first day of school…)
There is a reason why I can say Squinty McProudBoy and everyone knows whom I am talking about. His only concern is with his white supremacist "base" and his "Trudeau bad" as his only plan on governing Canada.
Is this true? I have disconnected myself from a lot of political media for the summer while working in the bush, and this caught me by surprise. What the fuck?
Yup. People are pissed at Trudeau and the Liberals so automatically turn to the Cons instead of, you know, the NDP or Greens ... like we have a two-party system or something.
Thanks. I guess I will have to try to mobilize more people to get off their ass and go vote. So many of the people I know just don't care enough to vote. But maybe the bitcoin and convoy-fellation facts about this pile of shit will help motivate more.
I have no hope that it will... But if I don't try, I will hate myself.
It's astounding how when the API fiasco happened, it seems that most Reddit users who migrated to Lemmy were predominantly Leftist, leaving a bunch of copycat subs behind that are almost exclusively alt-right shitholes. The difference in discourse over PP is night and day.
I honestly don't know from one day to the next which one's going to be an absolute fascist embarrassment to the country while STILL complaining we're too leftist socialist creeps.
It seems daily we'd see
no, people get rights. It's part of not being a dick
see? This sub got too woke and commie reeeeeee
... And it becomes exhausting trying to discuss amid all but actual feces being flung.
r/onguardforthee isn't the copycat type of sub I mean. r/canada_sub i'm pretty sure is almost entirely populated by ragebaiting bots because no one ever actually replies to comments. There's like several different r/canada_housing subs now? Truly a clusterfuck over on reddit these days.
If Canada elects this career grifter and fake family man poseur, I am genuinely done with this country. I don't think I can take another rightwing government at a time in history when we desperately need a party for the working class.
The last thing this country needs is yet another white male cishet christian fiscal con telling us what the fuck we need. "Everything is broken." Yeah, because your donors own all our hard work, you muppet.
