Did everyone notice how this election wiped out all the previous leaders and now we’re faced with being introduced to a new crowd of political leaders.

Elizabeth May with the Green Party is the only one still standing.

    …and yet there is a reason theAlt-right pipeline exists, but not an alt-left.

    Being a stepping stone ideology on the path to facism alone should give a normal person pause to critically think about their direction in the first place.

    Again, don’t aggrandize Conservatism.

      I mean, the pipeline could only be as old as the internet, which rules out most of the history of Conservatism, and there definitely is a left-wing equivalent. It’s just proven less appealing.

        I see that you’re misinformed: that pipeline has tracks back to John Romulus Brinkley who inspired the likes of Rush Limbaugh, who you should recognize.

        What is your source on a left wing pipeline of the same ilk? I’d love to know your sources.
