How the fuck is there so much conservative support in this country? How did people get so fucking stupid?

[–] Global_Liberty@lemmy.ml 6 points 3 days ago

Many swallow the same propaganda as south of the border. Around 40% of conservative voters could be considered MAGA supporters. It's the other 60% who have to come to their senses and realize the PP is lying about his support for Canada. He is just a discount Trump populist.

Buddy, Canada is blue outside of cities. Not as stupid blue as rural US but blue nevertheless.

Provincially, Northern Ontario was mostly orange, it was the braindead cities that voted in Ford. Maybe federally is different.

And no, it is just as stupid as US conservatives - especially when the candidate is ready to fuck over healthcare and potentially sell us off to be the 51st state

More like most of the suburbs and small towns just outside larger cities did. Most large city centres all voted for either Lib or NDP.

Homie, ont is murica lite. Ppl unironically fighting for private health care here.

I'm still pissed about that. Like, how?! Dude has cost us so fucking much as it is. Then he goes and gives all adults a $200 cheque?!

For a party that loves to bitch about welfare and wasteful spending, those cheques should have killed the party's chances - especially since the note that came with it mentioned the cheque was to help offset the expensive cost of living that was partially due to the federal carbon tax? The fucking tax that HE forced us into? And they STILL fucking won?

Maybe it's high time we put will testing questions on ballots like we do on sweepstakes.

It's mostly wealthy people that want private healthcare because they want to hoard the limited supply of doctors themselves for quicker response times and let all the poorer folk wait even longer to be seen.
