That sounds like hell

2018-11-22 19:13:21 UTC  

God, could you imagine being a conservative in Sweden?

2018-11-22 19:14:19 UTC  

Or even just a left or right libertarian would probably still be ostracized there

2018-11-22 19:14:28 UTC  

Centrist

2018-11-22 19:15:00 UTC  

I can't wait until we start hearing about people being actively punished by the government for wrongth--oh wait that's already been happening nvm

2018-11-22 19:38:55 UTC  

The big difference here in Canada is that our alternative (conservative) party is too corporatist and in some cases too traditionally conservative. The liberals were our center-left party that were supposed to be the reasonable ones, but they've fallen off the rails entirely and joined the NDP (socialist party) when it comes to social issues but not on economic issues.

2018-11-22 19:39:19 UTC  

Cons also like progshit

2018-11-22 19:39:33 UTC  

Liberals are just neolibs+socjus like the Dems

2018-11-22 19:39:51 UTC  

This is why the People's Party is the only real opposition rn

2018-11-22 19:41:20 UTC  

I would say that the liberals were still pro-capitalist but at this point I don't even think Trudeau takes the economy into consideration. Back when the whole pipeline fiasco had started in the news, Trudeau ran off to NYU for a public speaking event. He still hasn't done anything, essentially letting our oil industry pack up and leave.

2018-11-22 19:41:53 UTC  

He's spineless to the point where he's afraid to take sides

2018-11-22 19:42:13 UTC  

Neolibs aren't necessarily pro market, just pro corporate

2018-11-22 19:42:23 UTC  

Pro global trade as well

2018-11-22 19:43:51 UTC  

I could probably go all day typing walls of text about this stuff. I need a youtube channel lol

2018-11-22 19:43:58 UTC  

Wew

2018-11-22 19:44:34 UTC  

But yeah the PPC is really the only alternative to stagnation

2018-11-22 19:44:45 UTC  

Biggest issue here is apathy

2018-11-22 19:45:56 UTC  

I haven't really taken much of a look at the PPC, just kinda assumed that it would be taken over by ethnonationalists as those types of parties usually are

2018-11-22 19:46:54 UTC  

They're getting a lot of the more actual right wing con base and the libertarians from what I can tell

So far it's just Classical Liberalism: The Party

2018-11-22 19:47:45 UTC  

I really hope so, if they can gain some popularity and maintain this center-left/right balance then I would definitely vote for them in 2019

2018-11-22 19:48:26 UTC  

I know a hardcore Libertarian who immediately signed up to be a founding member

2018-11-22 19:48:54 UTC  

Otherwise I don't think I'd even vote. Scheer just seems like a conservative version of Trudeau but with a better speaking ability

2018-11-22 19:49:57 UTC  

That's why Bernier left the cons

2018-11-22 19:52:09 UTC  

Because Scheer is going to do a lot of the same shit as Trudeau

2018-11-22 19:53:02 UTC  

I might be convincing my lefty sisters to vote for PPC, fwiw
They don't want NDP and admit Trudeau sucks. A Scheer alternative is perfect

2018-11-22 19:53:41 UTC  

This could be good for the PPC really. They got a lot of media attention when they formed, but idk if it will be enough

2018-11-22 21:09:50 UTC  

I can't help but think of communism when I hear the People's Party

2018-11-22 21:10:13 UTC  

Yeah it's weird branding

2018-11-22 21:10:27 UTC  

C'est la vie

2018-11-22 21:10:28 UTC  

I get its populism and all but still

2018-11-22 21:37:19 UTC  

Makes me think of the Reform Party

2018-11-22 23:54:04 UTC  

National liberalism aka civic nationalism

2018-11-23 00:19:26 UTC  

Just watched Tim's vid on hillary... is it just me or is this a "Let them eat Cake" moment?

2018-11-23 02:33:23 UTC  

africa does not exist

2018-11-23 07:03:01 UTC  

The weird thing is I agree with Hilary seeing Europe need's to get it's act together.......on the other hand she was a high profile Senator in the 00's and her and Bush Jr were in a position to slam the open borders crowd down and also never let the white nationalism crowd bubble up if they had passed some fair centrist common sense immigration reform. Like her delivering that message to europe is like Chris Christie telling people eat your veges ie a bad messenger even if the message might be reasonable

2018-11-23 07:16:52 UTC  

Actually that's not the issue at all

2018-11-23 07:17:12 UTC  

I told people about this and they called it fake news

2018-11-23 07:17:27 UTC  

Hillary supporters literally denying it

2018-11-23 14:03:31 UTC  

She just wet her finger, stuck it up in the air, and gauged which way the wind was blowing. She has no guiding beliefs or convictions other than her divine right to power.

2018-11-23 14:49:42 UTC  

Clinton: lets stop populism by adopting populist policies!
