The stunningly bad judgment of Pierre Poilievre.

Some things that received unabashed support and adulation from Pierre Poilievre:
  • Brexit
  • Donald Trump
  • The occupation of Ottawa by the "Freedom Convoy"
  • Cryptocurrency
And you want that fucking fuckwad to run the country?

Not to mention several completely contemptible pronouncements on Indigenous people, including the famous post-TRC-apology by Harper, in which he admonished natives to stop whining for handouts, get off their asses and get working.

He's getting a free ride at this point on the honeymoon wave. I hope the Libs are saving all this ammo up, waiting for a real scorched earth campaign in which he has to account for all that bullshit.

The guy behaves like a child. I am not sure why CPC thinks this will appeal to voters.

/Well, maybe I am sure.

Unfortunately it seems people have lost any hope for their future and now politics has become purely about spite and trying to use power to take things away from “others”. Not sure when that shift happened, it nice been noticing it for a while now. Increasingly people, when talking about politics and voting, no longer voter for making life better. They vote for someone who will punish perceived enemies.

Yeah, in my head I go over various rationales of why people get sucked into right wing death cults, but I still can't really wrap my mind around why people would be voting for Mr. Poutine.

Alex Jones endorses Poilievre:

"We got Bolsonaro, we got Georgia Meloni in Italy, we got the new Canadian leader set to beat Trudeau, who's totally anti-New World Order, you look all over the world, we are rising right now"

Hopefully they won't got Bolsonaro for much longer. But wow, that's some stunningly bad company to be in.
