What really fucking sucks for me is I WANT to vote NDP and have most years. I can’t do that because it’s basically considered a wasted vote to not pick one of the more popular parties.
Trans erasure is very much creating a lower caste and an out-group to vilify.
He also represents corporate interests at the expense of the people and wants to do things like defund our non-corporate media as well as extend funding to fringe conservative media.
“Axe the tax” is very much a marriage of corporate interests with the government at the expense of us all.
He ticks a fair amount of boxes, even if he’s not as bad as the sieg heil pieces of shit down south.
American colors are backwards for some reason. In countries around the world (that I’m familiar with, at least) blue is the conservative color and red is the liberal/left color. Orange tends to be social democrat, I think, but that might be my Canada bias.
This is consistent across the Commonwealth at the very least, but I think I’ve noticed the pattern met in other European countries as well.
I never gave it much thought either but now I’m inspired to look it up, maybe they began that way but the policies shifted and the colors didn’t. My American history is not great but I think that might line up with the Republicans at least
Outsider here, would I be right to assume the red party is the fascist party?
Nope. Pretty much everywhere but in the US red is left.
Nah, the Blue is “trump lite”

I bet blue will win regardless.
Ranked voting is so clearly a million times better than what most of us are dealing with in most countries.
This website is for the Ontario election, the post is talking about federal election.
Yep, same idea for federal.
No you would be very wrong. The blue is the fascist party.
Man. That’s bleaker than I had hoped then. At least it’s trending down.
None of these parties are fascist. Our blue party is more left leaning than US democrats.
PPC is fascist.
The Conservative’s rhetoric absolutely has tilted fascist since Pierre took over. They want to start us down that road.
Pierre is a waste of skin but I don’t think I would say fascist.

That’s the most recent example. Palling around with Canada’s equivalent of the J6ers would be another.
The convoy, who were led by a con woman and a white nationalist.

And their vote share is represented by not being statistically signifigant enough to even be mentioned on the chart.

TIL honestly, I never thought about it much, but it’s interesting we’re reverse of the norm.
