Anyone who uses the word woke or any form thereof unironically is a fucking idiot.

Polievre is not fit to lead.

Woke is marketing. Living for humanity is not. Fuck these weak ass keywords people use to gain support and collect grunt workers.

Live for humanity nothing else... fuck the politics.

We can't rely on the government anymore. We can't rely on people that want to keep all that same old shit moving. We are pawns to the leading gangs world wide. Nothing more nothing less.

Wow. Such edge.

We can't rely on the government anymore

Elect better government. We're so busy fear-voting to prevent republicanada that we don't have the space for anything else. Get those aristocrat wanna-be assholes out, and then the race is between negligent, earnest, and whackadoo; but that's one better option than we had before.

There is no problem so bad it can't be made worse. Don't both-sides this thing, because that's a fallacy and you're their puppet when you do. Don't throw away half-assed and let absolutely horrible take its place.

Phone your damned MLA and MP and roast them over the coals a bit.

Demand better of the people Canada had to choose to run the show.

I’m so fucking tired of all this right vs. left bullshit. They all suck. No one in charge or who wants to be in charge seems capable of nuance. Maybe that’s a reflection of the general public, I don’t know but it’s exhausting.

They all suck

The people wrecking the show don't want you to vote. Congrats: you've both-sides'ed this thing and now you're not voting. Apathy is their goal.

They won.

Didn’t say I wasn't going to vote. I just don’t like my options.

I think that you will find that the general public is largely near right, center, and left in Canada and that the people goose stepping around and chanting, "Woke! Woke! Woke!" are the extreme right and those cynically manipulating them for power as Polievre is doing.

But they think they are centrists, and uninformed centrists believe them.

NDP is actually pretty decent, especially compared to the leading brands :)

I’ll end up voting for them. They’re the closest for me. It’s disheartening that they don’t really have a chance in my riding though.
