The Isolated Politics Blurt Thread I: A New Beginning

[Rainblow]

I believe this country can be the bellwether for democracy but instead has exported hatred and lies as virtues which have led to a sudden rise in far right politicians in places where they would have been ignored and marginalized before. I will include into my readings on learning more on Pierre Poilievre.

I agree. The far right is getting a foot hold here and they will most likely succeed.
As to Poilievre, he's a turd. He's a climate denier, did not admonish party members for openly supporting a German pro Nazi fascist, he tagged his social media with MGTOW (men go their own way)an acronym for a misogynistic group, he wanted to dismantle the Bank of Canada and replace it with bitcoin... and that's a small sample of why he's a shitty person. He's ahead in the polls by quite a comfortable margin. Best we can hope for if he's elected is a minority gov't. Nothing really gets done in parliament with a minority gov't because they don't have the votes to pass bills.

This prospect should terrify people! This sounds like Marius and Sulla going after their enemies, causing a bloodbath.

Wow…what a rousing golf clap of applause between the boos. Plus, there were a lot of people that stayed seated and weren’t clapping after Orange Fuhrer remembered that he was finished.

Also, WTFingF—it was a WHITE TIE event and the orange turd shows up in a black tie! I could only make out one other person on that dais that wasn’t wearing a white tie. What a dooshbag.

All those Catholic priests standing to applaud the rapist who has boasted about perving on undressed underage females.

At least his wife had the decency to scowl throughout this disgraceful episode.

except he gets away with that little legality by having them sign the PAC's statement to protect for the First and Second Amendments... does that mean there's no added incentive to declare yourself a republican, a trumpite? no, but legally he's probably clear. I would hope this WASN'T the case but things the way they are today???

From what I understand there's a real problem with the 1 million a day every day thing. I would not be surprised to see that investigated. The question is, can they act quickly enough as it is only 3 weeks to the election.
