Canada and the EU did that year's ago.

It's going to be closer where I live than it has been in a long time but I think the Conservative will likely win. I'm still voting to show my displeasure with the Trumpist bullshit and in the hopes that enough people join me to swing the seat.

Exactly.

I don't think it's about fear. I think it's about seething hatred and resentment. They have been made to feel stupid, intolerant, backwards, racist, etc. and Trump and the right wing billionaire owned corporate media have told them that they are right to be angry and resentful and definitely shouldn't try to better themselves in order to manipulate them into voting for fascism against their own self-interest and the interests of their wives and daughters and the country.

Just a reminder that if he loses and quits he's entitled to a $20,000 per month pension for life.

He didn't want to be in a MAGA propaganda photo. Neither did Gretchen Whitmer.

Sometimes, after being exposed to the MAGA mind virus, people give up all hope for humanity and die.

A 5 minute meeting with JD Vance and he was gone.

Aren't there enough right wing echo bunkers at this point?

MAGA had a hardon for cruelty. They want us to just take the abuse and smile and thank them for letting us spend our money in their city. Fuck that.

I was permanently banned from r/conservative for pointing out the letter that claimed that the DOJ had found evidence of basics voter fraud in Georgia that contradicted the Republican Governor, Republican Secretary of State, Republican States Attorney General, and Republican election officials as well as the Republican Attorney General, and the DOJ itself was written by a Trumpist shill.

I wish I could get flare for that.

Don't speak truth intuitive the echo bunker.

I have always found that being good at it is a very good way to be invited back. It's the least gay thing that you can do.

Are these three same guys that think that eating pussy makes you gay?

It's no fucking wonder they're lonely.

Have they tried not being assholes?

1993 was the first true three strikes law. It was passed in Washington state.

I wasn't suggesting that Petite Polievre would trot out the overt racism but that he is playing from the same playbook as Trump and his supporters include white supremacists and racists to whom he appeals with talk about immigrants.

It is neo-fascist lack-of-virtue signalling. The US has spent $2 trillion losing the war on drugs. That money could have eliminated poverty in the US which would have greatly improved the crime and drug use situations (one and the same, really) but that doesn't satisfy the braying white supremacists and class supremacists in the right wing base.

That's the winning right wing playbook. Tell you to be afraid. Tell you that the people who make you feel bad for being dumb (the intellectual elitists), racist and ignorant (the woke), backwards (progressives) are bad and that you are right to feel resentful and angry instead of trying to improve yourself and that crime is running rampant because of those people and white people are going to be replaced because of those people, and immigrants are invading the country because of those people, and they are the only ones who can protect you by letting you have military style weapons to protect yourself and your family, by being tough in crime with three strikes and mandatory minimum sentences, and by stopping immigrating and deporting non-whute people. The racist, ignorant, backward folks eat that alternate reality up.

This predates Trump by decades. Officials from states that had tried three strikes tough on crime laws told Harper it didn't work but he did it anyway. You tell stupid period that crime is out if control to make them afraid then tell them that you are the only politician that will protect them by being tough on crime.

Sound familiar? Republicans have been doing it in the US for decades. Polievre is trying to do it here. The foreign neo-fascist oligarch owned corporate media has been hyping crime in Canada without telling you that there is a major biker war going on and that unless you're a biker the spike in crime isn't going to touch you.

Also, what happened to the Haitians in Springfield eating pets. I thought the Trumper were going fix that as soon as they got into office, or was that just a lie to make morons fear and fate immigrants to help Trump get elected?

Don't let Polievre do that to Canada.

Harper spent a couple of billion dollars building new prison beds that CSC didn't want or need because he was going to be tough on crime. Governors and former governors from states that had tried tough on crime told him that it didn't work and not to do it. He did it anyway to lack-of-virtue virtue signal to his angry, hateful, moronic base. Then, one by one after spending years in court and hundreds of millions of dollars of our tax dollars, those unconstitutional laws were struck down by the Supreme Court.

Is that why neo-fascist women are so fucking miserable?

As a socialist pussy eater I don't feel any need to walk around waving my masculinity at people. Maybe the real issue is that the neo-fascist non-pussy eaters have such delicate masculinity that they're afraid to do anything that might hurt it.

Left wing babes are welcome to sit on my face any time. I'll take that risk.

Where the fuck are the, "Mah rights!" people now that the government is actually trampling on the constitution?
