Dear Alberta: You are so fucked.

I'll wager their heads would explode from the cognitive dissonance, but conservatives seem to be able to believe multiple conflicting, wrong things at the same time.; 11:21 AM

Just look at the Republicans in the U.S. They have to wait for instruction from their well-heeled media overlords (Tucker Carlson, Sean Hannity, and in the past, Bill O'Reilly and Rush Limbaugh) on what to do, think, and say regarding any topic, then all of a sudden - like magic! - they're all saying the exact same thing.

The only counterpoint to this in recent years is the "Trump Factor". As in, Donald Trump will spout off whatever bullshit comes to his mind, no matter how illogical, and most every Republican will stand in lockstep with their thoroughly unimpressive leader. There's also the perpetual vicious circle of Trump saying something stupid, and Fox and other right-wing media running with it, or vice versa.

The same thing is becoming more noticable with the CPC. I mean, is there really much difference between what Pierre Poilievre says, and what one sees posted on Rebel, The Post Millennial, True North, etc.?

It would have been unthinkable - even a decade ago - for any (semi-credible) Conservative politician to have been caught anywhere near something like this past February's Fuckers' Brigade Hoedown Hootenanny. Stoking the flames of such a (bowel) movement like that in coded language, sure. Maybe even supporting them behind the scenes. But being like PP and Candice Bergen and actually having photos taken with the human equivalent of an open sewer? Almost never! Sure, you'd have someone like Rob Anders - when he wasn't dozing off in the HoC - doing something like that, but he's a low-level shitheel, not to mention a massive fucking idiot who's expected to do that.; 6:39 PM

Oh yeah, and some would wear a yellow Star of David at protests to show what victims they were, because being asked to get a vaccine to protect yourself and your community is just like being murdered in a Nazi death camp. Whiners.
