  • This one sentence on the article pretty much summarizes the problem:

    It’s not surprising these groups check out of politics, especially when there is mounting evidence that legislators favour higher status voters.

    The two main parties can barely pretend to give a fuck about the poors anymore, and the NDP has basically regressed to being equivalent of the Liberals a decade ago. The Federal Greens are a joke.

    I only vote because I’m queer and the Conservatives have a much more aggressive form of homophobia than the Libs.










  • Don’t underestimate how much American MAGA rhetoric has infiltrated Canada. A lot of people here are bigoted against immigrants, queers, natives, or [INSERT MARGINALIZED GROUP HERE].

    Even in my heavily Liberal city, I’ve heard someone suggest a homeless hunting season (as in, a season to hunt homeless people). I’ve seen a guy rage because city hall was flying a Pride flag. I’ve heard people say they’re scared to go to the mall because there’s too many immigrants now.

    I do truly think most people I encounter have their hearts in the right place, but I’m often surprised at what some of them say, even the ones who seem nice. Unfortunately, I think this rightward shift represents more of the population than we’d like to admit.
