I’m so fucking tired of all this right vs. left bullshit. They all suck. No one in charge or who wants to be in charge seems capable of nuance. Maybe that’s a reflection of the general public, I don’t know but it’s exhausting.

The people wrecking the show don't want you to vote. Congrats: you've both-sides'ed this thing and now you're not voting. Apathy is their goal.

They won.

Didn’t say I wasn't going to vote. I just don’t like my options.

I think that you will find that the general public is largely near right, center, and left in Canada and that the people goose stepping around and chanting, "Woke! Woke! Woke!" are the extreme right and those cynically manipulating them for power as Polievre is doing.

But they think they are centrists, and uninformed centrists believe them.

NDP is actually pretty decent, especially compared to the leading brands :)

I’ll end up voting for them. They’re the closest for me. It’s disheartening that they don’t really have a chance in my riding though.
